The Cost of All Things

By: Maggie Lehrman

Narrated by: Sharmila Devar, Shannon McManus, Jesse Bernstein, Nicholas Dressel

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind meets We Were Liars in this thought-provoking and brilliantly written debut that is part love story, part mystery, part high-stakes drama.

What would you pay to cure your heartbreak? Banish your sadness? Transform your looks? The right spell can fix anything…. When Ari's boyfriend Win dies, she gets a spell to erase all memory of him. But spells come at a cost, and this one sets off a chain of events that reveal the hidden—and sometimes dangerous—connections between Ari, her friends, and the boyfriend she can no longer remember.

Told from four different points of view, this original and affecting novel weaves past and present in a suspenseful narrative that unveils the truth behind a terrible tragedy.

A dramatic puzzle-Ultimately very satisfying

I quite enjoyed the reading and the book itself is terrific. A Faustian puzzle with fantastic climax.
