Unfortunately, the audio doesn't appear to be available anymore. This is what happens when I take over a year to review a book. :(

My Rating ~ 4 bites and a nibble



Octavia Hollows can bring people back from the dead with a touch of her hand and a funky green light show. She and her pet pig Bacon have been traveling around the country on her motorcycle ever since she lost the love of her life. The pain nearly cripples her, but she’s determined to find out what happened to Elba. She’s being stalked by someone sinister and while she does get some help from friends along the way, will they be enough?


I really love this story and the narrator. Octavia is a great character! Full of pain and doubt she really has room to learn and grow through the book and the best part? She does! Her journey is our journey. The writing is not overly complex allowing it to flow along at a consistent pace and the characters are wonderful. There really wasn’t much I didn’t like about this story. The villain is a little underwhelming, but overall I have very much enjoyed listening to this audiobook. It is no fault of the book that it took me so long to finish it. That’s all on me and my crazy life.
