Absolutely fabulous new story. While also being a wonderful continuation of Tim Burton's tale. Sally's growth as a ragdoll, a woman, a queen is my favorite part of this book. It is a common thread we can all aspire to whether we have visible seams or not. I would recommend this book for anyone that enjoys 'Nightmare' be them teen or adult.

I have read this book several times over. Enough that I have lost track of how many times. It is a sweet college romance that makes me smile. I listened to it on audible this time. The pace, inflections and accents were well done.

Smiling at the ending. I've read this in the past. I listened to it this time. The audio was wonderful with the different speakers for each character. They brought the book to life. It is a wonderful story about trials, pain, deep love and at the center of it all... Hockey. Enjoyed every moment.

I enjoy this series so much. I had forgotten the details of Bella's story and they make the book. The strength and fierceness that is Bella made this a very happy read for me. Listening to it this time through was great. The narrators are amazing and give the tale so much life through their inflections.

I remember enjoying the book from when I read it in the past. I laughed out loud several times while listening to it this time. The main characters are great in this story. Both have their struggles but learn to lean on each other for support. They had me smiling often.

I love this short. It's so sweet and amusing. This time through I listened to it and my goodness the narrators! They gave incredible performances and had me laughing out loud. Another wonderful look into the Ivy years world.

I have known the character Elvira in a very broad sense. She was rather before my time but after reading this I have every intention of looking the movies up so I can see all the wonderful spooky vampy galore that is the Queen of Halloween.

I enjoyed this memoir beyond words. So many stories, so much love, crazy adventures, deep heartache, ghosts, pain and trauma, hard earned success.... This book has it all. Ms. Peterson has shared much of a well lived life and done so in a way that is such fun to read. I would recommend this to anyone that enjoys behind the scene Hollywood tales as it is chock full to the binding.

Happy snippets.

These are all wonderful. I was able to listen to the Blonde Date and review it separately. The Studly Period and Yesterday are so good. The characters both old and new are great. I loved these peeks into the Ivy years. They add to the stories that exist already and caused many smiles. Several times I laughed outright, achievement unlocked. I am looking forward to the continuation of this world. The Brooklyn Bruisers series looks so promising.
