For No Mortal Creature By Keshe Chow

Kicking off our October audiobook recommendations is Kesha Chow’s dark romantasy, For No Mortal Creature! Inspired by the classic Gothic novel Wuthering Heights, this haunting and magical story follows Jia Yi, a girl with the power of resurrection. She can move between the realm of the living and the dead, an ability she must now use to retrieve a long-lost sword and save her grandma. The only ones who can help her are Lin, the boy she had loved before he betrayed her, and Prince Essien, her mortal enemy. Let’s just say we weren’t expecting the love triangle to steal our hearts as quickly as it did…

Next in our Sweet Listens roundup is A. M. Woody’s swoony YA romance, Most Valuable Player! To his great dismay, Cameron “Cam” Morelli, the school’s cocky star quarterback, gets rejected by the team’s sarcastic water boy, Mason Gray. As fate would have it, Mason is the only person who can help tutor him and get his grades up to go back on the field. The two of them grow closer, each one letting down his defenses and becoming each other’s safe spaces. Cam is so much more than what his jock persona presents. Mason must face an abusive ex and accept the reality that what happened to him was never his fault.

Our final October audiobook is a quirky murder mystery with family drama around every corner. A family vacation turns into a crime scene when the family’s matriarch GG dies in The Dysfunctional Family’s Guide to Murder by Kate Emery. Fourteen-year-old Ruth has read enough mystery novels to get started on the case. And with the help of her newfound cousin Dylan, she starts to discover family secrets from everyone in the house that could’ve led to GG’s death. The plot twists and new clues were jaw-dropping, and we gripped the edge of our seats during the big reveal at the end! (We had a feeling but weren’t 100% sure.)
