Soul Mirror

By: Edmund Stone, Crystal Lake Publishing

Narrated by: Danielle Muething

The world is what you make of it until you turn it upside down.

Edmund Stone’s Soul Mirror takes listeners into the mind of Jessica, a nonverbal young woman living with autism, who feels disconnected from the world around her. Her life has been a constant struggle, moving from one foster home to another, surrounded by adults more focused on their own issues than on her well-being. Yet, Jessica finds solace in a peculiar mirror—a mirror that doesn’t reflect her image but instead offers glimpses into the souls of others.

As Jessica becomes increasingly captivated by the mirror, she unwittingly stirs something dark—a malevolent entity determined to capture her soul and the souls of those around her. Now, Jessica must find a way to navigate this twisted reality and protect herself and those she loves from an evil that lurks just beyond the glass.

In this psychological and supernatural thriller, Soul Mirror explores themes of isolation, self-discovery, and the delicate balance between reality and the unknown. Jessica must face her fears, confront the darkness, and seek out unlikely allies in her fight for survival.

Will she find a way to escape, or will the mirror and its sinister force claim her forever?

This story makes you hold onto your pages, to see what is going to sneak up on you. Boo!

this was good.

This was a good book, and it kept me interested. love the narrator, she did a great job.

It was ok!

The story plot was good, and the performance was okay. I feel like both story and performance was lacking. It was ok for a free short story.

Intriguing plot & Characters

Suspenseful story that kept me listening. I appreciate how the autistic main character, Jessica, was not portrayed with a lot of stereotypes or ableism.
I also enjoyed the name drops of other horror authors as characters in this book.

The narrator was excellent. She is an author in her own right whom I recommend as well.

I liked it

This book gave a little bit of NOS4A2 mixed with a little bit of Coraline vibes. Very nice. I’ve always had an interest in a different world behind mirrors, which is what attracted me to this book in the first place. The book did not disappoint. It’s definitely worth a listen.
