"I don't think I can stress enough how much I love Jesse Eisenberg reading this series. The story is pretty awesome on its own, but Jesse really adds life to the story in a way that few would be able to do justice to.<br/><br/>I love the curse worker series. It's far different from any other paranormal young adult book out there. While I'm a bit sad it is only a trilogy, I am pretty excited to see how things end for Cassel. Things are not going so well for him.<br/><br/>The ending blew me away. I didn't see it coming at all. I had thought I had figured out the who-dun-it part a few times, but somehow I didn't make the connection. I'm also surprised with everything that relates to Lila. Poor Cassel, he can't seem to catch a break. It kills me that he loves her so much, but knows that things aren't right with how Lila feels about him. This is one of the biggest things I can't wait to see in the final book.<br/><br/>I really do recommend the audiobook for this one. I have very few that I would want to listen to over and over and this series will definitely be on that list. I'm not sure if Jesse will continue to lend his voice for audiobooks, but if he does, I'm there."
