HALL WAYS BLOG: AUDIOBOOK REVIEW: I'm a huge fan of Nick Sullivan's THE DEEP series, and when I saw he'd teamed up with fellow Tropical Authors author Nicholas Harvey for a holiday novella, I couldn't resist. (ESPECIALLY because Nick Sullivan narrates the audiobook.) 

As always, it was so much fun to *dive* back into the world of Boone & Em, this time for a Cayman Island adventure. And it was a great introduction to Harvey's characters, AJ Bailey & Nora Sommer. 

At just 3 1/2 hours in length, it was easy to listen while wrapping presents and preparing for our after-Christmas Christmas celebration with family. It definitely kept me in the holiday spirit and had me laughing and wondering exactly how the mystery would unfold. If you've read any of Sullivan's books, you can be assured it's an action-packed finish.

I listened at regular speed, and Nick Sullivan nails the narration of all the characters. Sometimes his  "AJ" voice would slide into his "Emily" voice, but other than that, each character had a distinct voice, and Sullivan depicts quite a few accents since characters are from all over the world. 

I've got one more book, Deep Hex, to read in Sullivan's THE DEEP series, and while I wait for him to write more books, I may give Nicholas Harvey's NORA SOMMER CARIBBEAN SUSPENSE series a try. The kick-ass Norwegian's part in ANGELS OF THE DEEP really piqued my interest in reading more of her adventures. And if I get hooked, you won't see me for a while. There are eight books in that series!

Settled in for a long winter's nap

 

I'm following Lone Star Literary Life's example and taking a break from blogging until January 2025. (And also, I'm taking a break from social media and pretty much anything else that requires a deadline. Because retired, yo.)

In January, I'll be featuring three books on Lone Star Lit Book Campaigns, and two will include Hall Ways Blog book reviews. You can check out my On Tour tab to see what's in the works over there, and of course, feel free to click any of my affiliate links to help fund my retirement. (You pay nothing extra to get fabulous books, and I get a small payment from the Amazon gods. Win-win.)

Meanwhile, take a scroll through my posts for my thoughts about books I've read or ones that have come across my radar. Reviews are linked on my Book List tab, and all my posts back to the beginning, July, 2011, are linked in the Blog Archives section in the sidebar.

If you're feeling really supportive, poke around at the bottom of the blog's home page, and you can subscribe to get email notifications when I post something new to the blog (usually no more than three or four times a month) and/or follow me on social media.
