Before the Devil Breaks You by Libba Bray | Audiobook Spotlight

Hello everyone,
I love audiobooks! I love how audiobooks allow me to multitask where I can read listen to my book and do chores or play games on my phone at the same time.

I am going to spotlight the audiobook for Before the Devil Breaks You by Libba Bray. Before the Devil Breaks You is the third book in Libba's The Diviners series.

New York City.
1927.
Lights are bright.
Jazz is king.
Parties are wild.
And the dead are coming...

After battling a supernatural sleeping sickness that early claimed two of their own, the Diviners have had enough of lies. They're more determined than ever to uncover the mystery behind their extraordinary powers, even as they face off against an all-new terror. Out on Ward's Island, far from the city's bustle, sits a mental hospital haunted by the lost souls of people long forgotten--ghosts who have unusual and dangerous ties to the man in the stovepipe hat, also known as the King of Crows.

With terrible accounts of murder and possession flooding in from all over, and New York City on the verge of panic, the Diviners must band together and brave the sinister ghosts invading the asylum, a fight that will bring them fact-to-face with the King of Crows. But as the explosive secrets of the past come to light, loyalties and friendships will be tested, love will hang in the balance, and the Diviners will question all that they've ever known. All the while, malevolent forces gather from every corner in a battle for the very soul of a nation--a fight that could claim the Diviners themselves.

Heart-pounding action and terrifying moments will leave you breathless in the third book of the four-book Diviners series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Libba Bray.

What's cool is that Penguin Random House Audio's Listening Library actually shared some behind the scenes stuff in production of Before the Devil Breaks You. If you're an audiobook listener like myself, you know having the perfect narrator is so important. A bad narrator can ruin even the best written books. Here's how Listening Library found the PERFECT narrator for Before the Devil Breaks You.

*****

If you're a fan of The Diviners series, then the Before the Devil Breaks You audiobook is a must listen. It's a whole 'nother reading experience when you listen to the audiobook because the perfect narrator can bring the story to life in a way that just plain reading it can't and Ms. LaVoy is able to do that in Before the Devil Breaks You. She does different voices for each of the characters, you guys, and there's A LOT of characters in this series.

A huge thank you to Listening Library for the chance to listen to Before the Devil Breaks You. I'm going to do a more thorough at a later date as I'm hoping to do a series audiobook review on the first three books of The Diviners quartet.

Happy reading,
Michelle
