I read this series over eight years ago. It's one that I remembered liking a LOT, and I still had a pretty decent memory of the storyline. I "read" the book initially, and now that I've discovered audio, I figured I'd re-read some old favorites, going with the audio edition this time. Julia Whelan is an excellent narrator and I really liked this the second go round too. Now that it's not so new, I'm able to continue on to the next book immediately (not having to wait for a hold at the library). :)
