It's a Wonderful Midlife Crisis ⭐⭐⭐⭐

It's a Wonderful Midlife Crisis by Robyn Peterman


G👀dreads

A Paranormal Women's Fiction with a bit of class, and a lot of sass, for anyone who feels like age is just a number! 
Whoever said life begins at forty must have been heavily medicated, drunk, or delusional. Thirty-nine was a fantastic year. I was married to the man I loved. I had a body that worked without creaking. My grandma, who raised me, was still healthy, and life was pretty damned good. But as they say, all good things come to an end. I’d honestly love to know who ’they’ are and rip them a new one. 

One year later, I’m a widow. My joints are starting to ache. Gram is in the nursing home, and dead people think my home is some kind of supernatural bed and breakfast. Gluing body parts onto semi-transparent people has become a side job—deceased people I’m not even sure are actually there. I think they need my help, but since I don’t speak dead, we’re having a few issues. To add to the heap of trouble, there’s a new dangerously smokin’ hot lawyer at the firm who won't stop giving me the eye. My BFF is thrilled with her new frozen face, thanks to her plastic surgeon, her alimony check, and the miracle of Botox. And then there’s the little conundrum that I’m becoming way too attached to my ghostly squatters… Like Cher, I'd like to turn back time. Now. No can do. Whatever. I have wine, good friends, and an industrial sized box of superglue. What could possibly go wrong? Everything, apparently. All in all, it’s shaping up to be a wonderful midlife crisis…

Genre: Paranormal, Fantasy, Romance, Ghosts

⭐⭐⭐⭐

She discovers she has the ability to see and communicate with ghosts. She refers to them as Squatters as more and more of them take over her house and TV. Once she discovers she's a Death Counselor it all starts to make sense. 
Add into the mix a smokin' hot grim reaper and paranormal dog. 

Favorite character: Gram. She's moved into a care facility and she's obsessed with Bob Barker. Her Death Counselor powers have been handed down to her granddaughter. 

Warning - you may shed a tear or two as some of the "moving on" happens and a couple of her personal discoveries, but it's balanced out with plenty of humor. 

The narration was phenomenal. I felt like I was listening to a play.  

🎧 Jessica Almasy - FABULOUS! She set the bar high for my future listening pleasure!

The Woman with the Cure   by Lynn Cullen  G👀dreads In 1940s and ’50s America, polio is as dreaded as the atomic bomb.

The Siren's Cursed Kiss by Kat Kinney  A.R.T. =  Tiffany Vanlandingham's  Audiobook Review Team pick. I received this audiobook as member of her ART in exchange for an honest review. G👀dreads EVERWOOD FALLS… a small supernatural community tucked up in the Colorado Rockies where witches, werewolves and vampires can live without fear of discovery, and those with curses they can’t control are sent to keep the existence of magic from being revealed to Mundanes. Green witch Sage Summers is no stranger to curses. The night her power manifested, the park outside her apartment devoured a strip mall. Classified by the Magic High Council as too dangerous to live in the Mundane world, she’s made a life for herself in Everwood Falls with her organic produce, a weekly stand at the farmer’s market, and the best group of friends a witch could ever hope for. But isolation has also meant the loss of her family, as well as an ex-fiancé who decided to put her and Everwood Falls in his rear...
