A Wreck of Witches

I devoured *A Wreck of Witches* in three sittings, and I’m still not over how much I loved it. Amy Hall’s narration is nothing short of stellar—her voice captures Marnie’s sarcastic, self-deprecating charm without ever feeling like she’s hamming it up. The way she handles the dialogue, especially the rapid-fire exchanges between Marnie and her snarky familiar, had me laughing out loud in my car (much to the chagrin of my fellow commuters). The production quality is top-notch, with no distracting background noise or abrupt cuts, which made for a seamless listening experience. The story itself is a delightful mix of humor, action, and heart. Marnie is the kind of protagonist you root for immediately—flawed, funny, and fiercely independent, even when the universe is actively trying to destroy her. The world Quinn builds is vibrant and immersive, with magic that feels tactile and real, from the glowing plants in Marnie’s nursery to the eerie, otherworldly threats lurking in the shadows. That said, I did find the middle act dragged slightly as the stakes ramped up, and the resolution wrapped up a bit too neatly for my taste. But these are minor quibbles in an otherwise brilliant audiobook. If you’re looking for a fantasy that’s as funny as it is heartfelt, with a protagonist you’ll wish you could hang out with, this is the audiobook for you. Hall’s performance elevates it to another level, making it a must-listen for fans of urban fantasy and snarky witches alike.
