Publisher's summary
On the day of her wedding to the Crown Prince, Aveline is cursed for helping the wrong person. Not entirely a ghost, she is in between, having no control over what form she takes at any given moment. To break it, Aveline is forced to turn to the man she helped: the ostracised Magic Collector.
Sebastian, known to everyone else as The Magic Collector, is shrouded in mystery. His castle disappears, sometimes for months, and then reappears without warning. Curious about him and his collection, Aveline pieces together that he, too, is cursed. As romantic feelings blossom, she is determined to free Sebastian as well, but there are dark costs that expose even darker secrets.
Equipped with the horrifying truth, Aveline is left with two choices: abandon the man she loves, or everyone she is trying to return to.

Story5 out of 5 stars 2
Saran and Keleir are elemental mages bound by love and sorcery: one destined to rule a kingdom, the other to destroy it. Five years ago, Saran reached into Keleir Ahriman's heart and imprisoned the demon within him, tying her soul to his. Together, they've conspired against Saran's father—a fanatical king who worships the world-ending demon inside Keleir, a being known as the Vel d'Ekaru. When Saran risks everything to save a village of innocent people, the king rips her magic away, splintering the wall she built around Keleir's heart.

Story4 out of 5 stars 1
Pergi has prepared all her life to become the ruler that her father wants. Without sons, he knows she could only retain the throne if she marries the neighboring prince, combining their kingdoms. Yet the same prophecy that calls for the reunification also warns that they must join by love. Supplanted by her younger sister in this technicality, Pergi waits with ill grace for Sadira to marry Teyrnon and steal her birthright. No one expects that Sadira would do a runner on her wedding day. What starts as an impromptu rescue of the wayward bride leads to a desperate struggle against a deadly foe.

Darkness has infected a sacred place by way of murder. This virus is not one that can be shared through air or water but lives within us all, and it is growing stronger. A once forbidden secret is now coming alive and it will fall upon a special class of Native American students and their teacher to try and stop it. But already the death toll is rising. For the students, this goes beyond tragedy, as many of them rely on its power to leave the chairs and walkers that have held them confined for most of their lives.

I'm the Princess of Solaria, a realm full of beasts that could make the Devil cower. That title means nothing because I'll be dead by the week's end. Like my sisters before me, the moment I turned twenty-three, my father announced a gauntlet. A fight to the death, where the most ruthless of the land could try to claim me as their bride. Desperate, I entered the gauntlet and fought for my own hand. But the mad king is a twisted monster who loves to play tricks, and now, instead of wearing a crown, I'm a prisoner, set to be executed for defying the king's tradition.

Nothing exciting happens at Peterson Cremation Services–exactly how Gideon prefers it. All his life, he has seen things–scary and bizarre visions that weren’t really there. Working the night shift at the crematorium and days at Sheryl's Shell Shack lets him keep his head down and ignore the strange world around him. The last time Gideon reacted to one of his hallucinations, he ended up in a psychiatric hold. He can’t let anything like that happen again–it would break his mother’s heart.

I didn’t want to stop listening.
I didn’t want to put this book down. I did put it down when adulting made it hard for me to read the physical paperback, but I immediately downloaded the audiobook when I discovered it was out. I finished it quickly. I loved the narrator. She was great at changing her voice for each character and made it easy for me to differentiate between each of them. This isn’t always the case with other audiobooks.
I knew some things ahead of time about the castle moving and how it was compared to Howl’s Moving Castle. I even read HMC, but … I didn’t like Howl’s in a way to be memorable. The Magic Collector, in my opinion, is better and will live rent free in my mind for a long time. My opinions are hugely swayed by characters in stories, and it was so easy to fall in love with each of them—except for the villains.
Previous reviews mentioned words like gothic, cozy, and Howl’s Castle a lot, but since I don’t read a lot of gothic, I was thinking this was more of a regency fantasy meets some ghosts and magical characters. I’m really bad at writing reviews and I don’t read with a critical mind. I read for pure pleasure and TMC gave me exactly that. Fantasy is my favorite genre, but with this book I enjoyed the ghosts, the clean closed-door romance, and the uniqueness of this story no matter what genre it is. It’s definitely one of my favorites in 2024.
