About this listen

Brought to you by Puffin.

'And we're going to live here, happily ever after, just like a fairy tale.'

When Dad tells Luna and her little sister Aurora that they're moving to live in a real tower, it's almost like they've stepped inside a fairytale.

But everything is not as magical as it first seems. The tower needs patching up, Dad still doesn't have a job and they're not even allowed in the room up at the very top.

When it's time to start at their new school, Luna quickly finds a friend, but six-year-old Aurora absolutely hates the children in her class. She prefers to spend her time with her imaginary friend Tansy. Aurora's make-belief life causes problems for them all - and it seems like Aurora really believes Tansy exists...

Is there really a curse on the tower - and will Luna be able to break it?

A spine-tingling tale from the bestselling Jacqueline Wilson.

I’m an adult fan of JW, I’ve read/listened to every single one of her books for the nostalgia factor and because they’re a comforting listen. I’ve enjoyed some of JW’s new releases but this wasn’t one of them. I did like the characters portrayals, and the performance was good, but the storyline was overall underdeveloped and lack lustre. I wanted more explanation for the character’s behaviours and resolutions for them, but it felt very rushed. Not a very satisfying ending either unfortunately.

Okay..

Its good, altho the good part was only within the last 2 hours. I was listening to this as night and it kinda gave the me a lil bit of the shivers lol 😭

But its a good story, altho before the last 2 hours it was kinda just explaining their everyday life n stuff

If you get scared easily especially if u listen to it at night then idk if i would recommend this but if u dont get scared easily then i would recommend!

Overall pretty good

It was okay

I loved it so much there was no point in the story that I didn’t like
But the last two hours were my favourite part
The eight hours of the story only felt like two hours to me

Loved it ❤️

A very appealing story. I love any story about modern life connecting to the past. Another wonderful story from Jacqueline Wilson.

Very appealing story

It was an AMAZING book, buuut I got so scared during the last few hours of the book ( spoilers ) I really didn’t want the book to end, I wanted to find out why Tansy came back as a ghost and if she is haunting Luna. I absolutely love Jacqueline Wilson’s books, they have been my favourites since I was around six or seven, she is really quite talented and I hope she continues to write more of these imaginative tales!!!!

So creepy…buuut REALLY GOOD
