Audiobook Review: Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett
I absolutely did not expect to love this book as much as I did!! The hype for it is so well deserved! I went in with little to no expectations – I hadn’t heard much about this one, I just knew that it had quite high ratings and a “curmudgeonly professor.” I enjoyed Even the Darkest Stars, and liked the narrator based on the Audible sample, so I used a credit to get the audiobook.

The audio for that one is one of my favorite audiobooks of all time! I am very sad to say that this one did not live up to that. (Neither did the audio narrator, she was not great.) The concept was interesting – […]
