Summary

What if wishes really did come true? What if you were a little girl who wanted nothing more than an imaginary friend with whom you could share all of your secrets? What if, when you grew up and moved away, your imaginary friend didn’t?

After inheriting a 400-year-old family estate from her aunt, Patrice Lafleur returns to her childhood home on the outskirts of Shreveport, Louisiana, to find that not much has changed. Of course, still waters run deep, and the long-forgotten memories lurking beneath the surface of Patrice’s childhood are there to greet her when she walks through the front door 20 years later.

The Journal is a story of magic and mystery, good versus evil, long-overdue redemption, unconditional love, and unspeakable horror. While some memories are best left forgotten, how can they be when the house itself remembers?

As Patrice’s memories come flooding back to her, she realizes that sometimes, things are different than they seem. Other times, they are exactly what they appear to be...evil.

Audible Edition.

Wow, this is a really entertaining, well written book that kept me hooked from the start. I loved the magic and paranormal aspects and the good vs evil theme. Great characters that I enjoyed getting to know.

Narration by Ashley Gatti is excellent and easy to listen to. I loved this one and recommend a listen.

I received a free copy of this audiobook and am voluntarily writing an unbiased review.

Fascinating paranormal story

I read this after reading Mystic Lake, and really enjoyed it. I loved how it seemed contained within itself - but whilst still giving a nod to Mystic lake with the arcane shop and website sharing the same name. (Very King esque). Again I feel that the book hints at a much bigger story that is waiting to be written, one that interweaves the stories perhaps? Thanks again Riano for giving me the opportunity to listen to your work.

Another great read from Riano

Great story, good narration (apart from the Scottish accent) good pace to the book, a true good vs evil book.

Really enjoyable listen

A slightly (!) far-fetched story involving a notebook that comes to life, and an all-powerful Egyptian artefact, let down somewhat by poor attention to detail, (it doesn’t take 24 hours to fly from the Middle East to Scotland, nor from Scotland to Louisiana.)
Credit also to the narrator for the most spectacularly terrible Scottish accent I’ve ever encountered.

Good in parts...
