Audio Review: My Life as an Album Series (My Life as an Album, #1-4) by LJ Evans, Narrated by Sarah Puckett, Michael Norman Johnson and Neill Thorne
LJ Evans must have been a poet in another life. Her stories read like a sonnet put to music. The characters stir deep emotion and the words melt their way right into your heart. Evans supplied the words. Puckett gave them melody.
My Life as a Country Album reminds me why I love to read romance. Cam and Jake are a mixture of angst, youth and sentiment. Against the backdrop of some of my favorite songs, Evans has created a beautiful tale of young love and adult heartache. The maturity level reads so far above young adult. This is a story that goes far beyond words and speaks to the heart.
My Life as a Pop Album puts heartache on full display. Derek and Mia could make sweet music together, but it's the baggage in their past that has them playing the wrong keys.
Rock Album shoves you through the rain toward a rainbow that proves itself to be a well hidden and hard earned reward. A captivating whirlwind.

This set of the whole My Life as an Album series inspired by Taylor Swift songs is fantastic, I was able to get the audiobook narrated by Sarah Puckett, Michael Norman Johnson, and Neill Thorne, an over 40 hrs audiobook, it was fantastic, I really loved the characters and how each narrator gave each a voice. I definitely recommend getting the audiobook is such a great experience. The story is a small-town romance, with sport and friends to lovers. It was a story that hooked me, with a deep emotional side, beautifully written. Cam and Jake are characters you need to meet. So worth 5 stars!

My Life as an Album (Books 1-4)
A Small Town, Southern Fiction Series
By: LJ Evans
Narrated by: Sarah Puckett, Michael Norman Johnson, Neill Thorne
There are so many times that a series is recommended to me, and with all the hype, the series does not live up to my expectations. LJ Evans My Life as an Album exceeded my expectations and more! 41 hours of story, all tied together with fragments of songs and I never wanted it to stop. Each story stands alone, but there are recurring characters. The first one gives us that once in a lifetime love. The one boy we fall in love with when we are young and know we will marry. Cam and Jake were this couple. Next we have Mia and Derek. Now I loved Cam and Jake and felt the incredible emotions of that story, but I really loved how Mia's character came through it all. These two had quite a ride working through so many issues and Derek had me swooning. Rock Album was so much fun because I love Bon Jovi. Yes, the story is good, but being an 80's girl had me loving the beginning of each chapter! This one is alternating points of view with PJ and letters from Seth. It gives us a great insight to both sides and making us feel it all. The love, the frustration, the fear and the desire. It's all there in both of them. Evans also adds a thread of suspense, which I loved! Mix Tape has all the fun and emotional songs and lets us live with Lonnie and Wynn. Not only was this a couple easy to fall in love with, but the slow burn made it that much sweeter. And Edie!!! What a doll. Ending this fantastic series is a novella that brings everything full circle for Cam and it's so wonderful. It's like the bow on a present. This is more than a story. It's the kind of book that resonates with you, gives you all the feels and will give you a warm heart. Make sure to pick this one up!
Sarah Puckett is narrates in all 4 of the books and what a performance. Each one fits the female lead perfectly. Her talent brings out everything these women felt and truly makes the story come alive. She is amongst two other fabulous narrators. Neill Thorne narrates Seth in My Life as a Rock Album and he fits the part. He gives Seth creates all facets of his personality and lets it out in those letters. Followed by Michael Norman Johnson as Lonnie and Blake in My Life as a Mix Tape and Cam. Each one is amazing and lets us feel and understand each character. The choice of these narrators for me was key to making the stories. Enhancing the books with these voices made it come alive and had me hooked.

My Life As A Country Album by LJ Evans is a novel inspired by Taylor Swift songs about love and loss and learning to live again. This is the first book in the My Life As An Album series that I listened to on audio narrated by Sarah Puckett. I absolutely love LJ’s books! She does an amazing job pulling you into a story. I was hooked from the very beginning. The book took me on an emotional roller coaster that had me in tears a few times. Sarah is an amazing narrator. She really knows how to bring a story to life. I felt every emotion that Cam was going through. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves contemporary romances or friends-to-lovers romance.
My Life As A Pop Album by LJ Evans is a novel inspired by Ed Sheeran love songs about forgiveness, love, and healing. This is book two in the My Life As An Album Series that I listened to on audio narrated by Sarah Puckett. I did not read book one and feel that you can read them as standalone books. This is the first book I have read by LJ Evans and it definitely won’t be my last. Sarah did an amazing job narrating. I loved the different voices she used for the characters. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves a sweet romance.
My Life As A Rock Album by LJ Evans is a novel inspired by Bon Jovi songs that shows how love and acceptance can heal even the toughest scars. This is the third book in the My Life As An Album series that can be read as a standalone. I listened to the book on audio narrated by Sarah Puckett and Neill Thorne. This is the second book of LJ’s that I have read and it definitely won’t be my last. She does an amazing job pulling you into the story. You can’t help but root for Seth and PJ. This story was absolutely amazing. Sarah and Neill did an amazing job on the narration. I could feel all the emotions that Seth and PJ were going through.
My Life As A Mixtape by LJ Evans is a novel inspired by Chris Janson’s “Drunk Girl” that I listened to on audio narrated by Sarah Puckett and Michael Norman Johnson. This is the fourth book in the My Life As An Album Series and can be read as standalone. I absolutely love LJ’s books! She does an amazing job pulling you into the storyline. Her books always take me on an emotional roller coaster that I never want to get off. I loved the relationship that bloomed between Lonnie and Wynn. I also had a copy of the eBook and loved the series epilogue at the end. It was a great way to wrap up the series. The epilogue had me in tears. I will definitely miss these characters! Sarah and Michael did an amazing job on the narration! They both really know how to bring a story to life. I can’t wait to listen to more of their work in the future. The entire series is absolutely amazing and is a must read! I think LJ say’s it best with her warning for the box set: “Do not listen unless you are prepared to invest your heart and soul. It's about finding yourself and your path in this crazy life while overcoming loss, heartbreaks, and illness.”
My Life With Cam by LJ Evans is a exclusive novella in the My Life As An Album series that is Blake’s side of the story from the book My Life As A Country Album. I listened to the book on audio narrated by Michael Norman Johnson. LJ did an amazing job on this novella! I loved getting Blake’s point of view of growing up in the shadow of Cam’s first love. I also enjoyed that it gave you a little more of Blake and Cam’s story down the road. Michael did a great job on the narration. I loved that he used different tones/voices for each character. It really brought the story to life. If you loved My Life As A Country Album I would highly recommend getting the box set so you can read this novella!

This series is about life and love and loss and healing and hope and love. Yes I said love twice and you may wonder why....because in this life we sometimes have more than that 1 great love....sometimes we get another chance at true love. This Life with Cam is a bonus novella in the book set and believe me you need Blake’s story. He’s truly the best of the best hero’s out there in the book world. I’m totally #TeamBlake. LJ Evans writing is magic...I get lost in her words and in the imagery she creates. She has the ability to draw me in and takes me on a journey with these characters who I feel like I know as family. She truly amazes me with the talent she possesses and I can promise you she delivers HEA’s like no other. She is a 1-click author for me and I have no doubt that she will be for you also.

Tonight I was given a gift- an early look at the Novella that completes this saga. Well, completes it for now, because life goes on, and generations grow.
I fell in love with all of the major players nearly immediately- but Blake was special (even more special than Jake...read it, you’ll understand!), so having this little bit from him was truly a gift.
But Lonnie is still my favorite. ♥️

I love this series! Each book holds a special place in my heart for different reason. Each book is so unique. Each character is so well developed.
I cannot recommend LJ Evansnovels enough. This series was my starting point. And her new series is fantastic too.
This is a series i will re-read. I do not often re-read books but these characters. These stories make me want to read them over and over again.
The short story of This Life With Cam. It is the perfect round up of Cam's story. Being able to get a glimpse at Blake's story is fantastic. He is her perfect match after everything that happens. He understands her and who she is, understands Jake's place in both their lives. All he wants to be is her last. Super Girl has found her match.. it is a cute short story.

My Life with Cam
I’ve already reviewed the main books in this box set individually so this will be just for the new Novella - My Life With Cam
My Life with Cam - this is not a standalone novella- you need to read My Life as a Country Album first- otherwise it’s a spoiler. -I loved Jake and Cam but after Jake, I was so happy that she found Blake to help her heal and live again. This story is from Blake’s POV and he is writing to Cam about how he fell for her. He starts back from the first time he remembered seeing her as a little girl, then through both good and bad times of her life, when they reconnected and started dating until now when she’s about to have their first child. So we hear his thoughts on a lot of my favorite scenes from book 1. He was sweet and had me swooning easily. I love him even more now. This was perfect.
