Faceless

Mortal Monsters, Book 1

By: Monica Millard

Narrated by: Whitney Dykhouse

Have you ever experienced that one moment that made you stop and take notice of a person you see every day, but never truly saw before? That’s what happened to me the day Eli Markham walked away from the school bully, instead of fighting.

It wasn’t the first time he’s done this, but it was the first time his eyes found mine in the crowd and held me captive. Now, I can’t get him out of my head and I’m seeing him everywhere.

Problem is, I’m not the only one taking notice of him. Someone, something, has got him in its sights and they want him bad. Bad enough to try to frame him for the murder of the bully he walked away from.

As his alibi for that crime and then another, I’ve stumbled into the crosshairs of the monster that’s after him and losing isn’t an option for it.

A great listen all around!

I loved everything about this book! It pulled me right in and didn’t let go until I finished it. (Actually, even then it didn’t let go because I’ll be moving right along to the next book. LOL) The characters were lovable with an awesome female lead. Mack’s strength in her journey was admirable, and you were right there with her throughout, feeling her range of emotions as she felt them. Eli was a fantastic character too, and I enjoyed the mystery surrounding him and trying to figure things out.

This was my first book with the narrator (Whitney Dykhouse) and I thought she did a great job. Ms. Millard was excellent in giving characters dimension and bringing them to life, but Ms. Dykhouse gave them an additional splash of color.

A great listen all around!
