I divide my time between writing, editing and creating…
Narrated by Fiona Thraille Run Time: 1 hr and 2 mins Summary: A short collection of random short stories. Most are fiction, but there’s at least one nonfiction in here.

P.A.W.S. Series Book 3 Narrated by Christopher Goodrich Run Time: 8 hrs and 29 min Summary: Kind of an interlude in the PAWS series. Additional Comments: The man’s performance was fine, but the audio quality wasn’t great. Most words had an odd squeak at the end of them that drove me crazy. I sped it…
Run time: 26 minutes Narrated by: Christopher Goodrich Summary: Shapeshifting cats take on the Nazis. Additional Comments: Imaginative and fun. What if the Nazi scientists succeeded in creating a shapeshifting werecat-soldier? That’s pretty much the crux of this story. Christopher Goodrich did an excellent job bringing the story to life. It’s a short story but…

Narrated by Fiona Thraille Run Time: 11 minutes Summary: Short tale of a cat’s life. Additional Comments: – I love the narrator. – Sort is based on a true story as the author based it off a cat she owned. – Features a style of story like Pets… where everything is from an animal POV….
Narrated by George Sirois Run Time: 4 Minutes (Story is ~3.5 min; 30 seconds is about the author) Summary: Pretty sure this review will be longer than the entire book.

Narrated by Jennifer Bossio Summary: I’m not sure if it’s one story or two, but it sounded like two short stories about the end of the world in Jerusalem. Additional Comments: Susie’s story is short and bittersweet. Na’ima’s story is short and hopeful. Couldn’t tell what her significant other’s name was, Reuben or Reuven. The…
Narrated by Matt Lovell Duration: 16 minutes Summary: Alistair, a character from the author’s main series (P.A.W.S.), tells the tale of his childhood to his apprentice, Joshua.

For such a short…
