Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Mandy Siegfried's narration is a standout feature of 'Spells'. She expertly captures Laurel's voice, her tone shifting seamlessly from youthful naivety to mature resolve. Siegfried's pacing is spot on, keeping listeners engaged in the story's slower moments and heightening tension during suspenseful scenes. The production is clean, with no distracting background noise. However, I found the story's pacing slightly uneven at times, with some sections feeling rushed while others lingered too long. Additionally, while I appreciated the exploration of consent, I wished for more depth in the world-building of the faerie realm. Overall, 'Spells' is a compelling listen, perfect for fans of young adult fantasy seeking a story that combines romance and self-discovery.
