    About this audiobook

    No rest for the wicked...or the cursed. SLATE I didn't mean to steal the Bloodstone from the De Morel's crypt. Scratch that, I did mean to steal it. Until I realized it was a curse-magnet that only comes off if I, along with a jolly trio, successfully defeat four curses. If any of us fail, I'm dead. I've never been a glass half-empty sort of person, but my glass looks in dire need of a refill right about now. The only highlight of this wicked treasure hunt: feisty, entitled Cadence de Morel. CADENCE I was raised on tales of magic, in a small town reputed to be the birthplace of French witchcraft. Did I believe all the stories I heard? Absolutely not. I mean, if magic existed, Maman wouldn't have died, and Papa wouldn't be stuck in a wheelchair, right? Wrong. The night Slate Ardoin waltzes into my life, wearing a ring he stole from my mother's grave, I call him a monster. But then I meet real ones, and Slate, well...he becomes something else to me. Something frustrating to live with, but impossible to live without. Something I will fight for, no matter the cost. Warning: profuse cursing (and not just the magical kind).

      Dnf not my thing, nothing bad or good to say about it
    • 3/5
      It's very, very, VERY young to start. It reads "middle school." The narrator makes the friend sound like a toddler. It's so off-putting, it's actually gross. Especially because that side character is hyper sexualized in order to make the MC seem superior. Which is a trope I loathe! I'm a girls girl. No room for slut shaming or the need to put others down so I feel better. Big ick.
      The male MC is a Dbag. No other way to put it. Just an FYI, I DNF. I normally wouldn't rate a dnf but I had to on this platform. Thats why it got a mid rating, 3 star. So, if late in the book, it gets better...yay?
