I need more!! I can't wait to listen to the rest of the audio book. I am very curious to see where the story goes and what happens with the characters. This book feels very dark and mysterious and I am here for it. The narration of this book is pretty good. I've listen to a few books that Julia Whelan has narrated and enjoyed them all. I am definitely most interested in Maria's story. Luddy in Alice's story is a very mysterious and I feel like she is key in some part of the story. Alice would probably be the one that I'm least invested in of the 3 but I want to see how her character plays out in the story. I did feel like it took a minute to really get into the book but by the end of the sample I was invested and feel the need to get my hands on the rest of the story.
I will post my full review on fable, goodreads and storygraph once I finish the full book.

Absolutely love it! This author is an auto-buy for me. They consistently create engaging stories, and this book is no exception.

I think this sneak peek is AMAZING, but now having gotten into the rest of the book post release I wish this sneak peek was longer. This book already has me hooked.

This book was so gripping! I really enjoyed the gothic vibes it delivers along with the historical atmosphere it presents. This was such a great sneak peek into what the book will introduce to us readers and I can’t wait to finish the book as it was quite intriguing and so interesting. I will be purchasing the book to continue the story and see what lies ahead for Maria.

I LOVED getting to listen to the sneak peak before buying the book. You get a huge chunk for a peak too! And the book is PHENOMENAL. So real and genuinely heartbreaking. I already have the full book in my cart. I HIGHLY recommend listening or buying this book!

5 stars
I neeeeeed the rest of this book ASAP. I can't wait to find out more of what happens. I received this audiobook sneak peek from Macmillian Audio on NetGalley. The Narrators are amazing of course!!

During this preview of Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil, I enjoyed the smooth writing describing characters and their appearance, the world around them and any interaction between the characters. Schwab uses words that richly emphasize and the constructs of the sentences are seamless making the mind's imagery easily obtainable.
The reader for the audiobook does a good job conducting the tools in the writing helping bring the story to life easily.
This seek peak definitely has me intrigued and excited to pick up the full length story!

I need more! This was just a sneak peak but it was hauntingly beautiful! V.E. Schwab writes the most atmospheric tales. Julia Whalen always brings characters to life and I am always in awe when she narrates a book.
So far it was a captivating listen and I am ready for the rest!
Thank you Netgalley and V.E. Schwab for a sneakpeak of the audiobook!

This sneak peek has me even more excited about this story than I already was. I cannot wait to dive into this book. Lesbian vampires had me sold and this sneak peek confirmed my thoughts: this will be an absolute delight to read

The narrator did a great job!
Since its only a sneak peak I don't have a full review, but so far I am loving the book!

This is my first book by VE Schwab and wow I cannot believe I’ve never read their works so far. Bury our Bones in the Midnight Soil sneak peak has me hooked with this story. The storytelling is great, I’m able to visualize what Schwab is conveying. The audiobook narrator has a captivating voice. I’m so glad this releases this month because after this teaser, I need to jump into the story fully.
Thank you NetGalley and publisher for the sneak preview

I'm glad I waited until the say before this published because this little teaser was amazing! I would have perished if I'd had to wait too long to continue reading!

What a fantastic start to a book! I was given a sneak peak of this amazing new story, and it exceeded all expectations! I am absolutely hooked and can’t wait to finish the rest! The narration was perfectly done and added extra depth to the story. I can already tell that this is a story that will stay with me for a while. Can’t wait to get the full book when it releases so I can pick up where the sneak peak left off!
Thanks to NetGalley for giving me a preview copy in exchange for my honest review.

Thank you for the sneak peek. Looking forward to reading/listening to the full story! I have always been a fan of this author and can't wait to finish what seems to be her darkest story yet.

From this sampler, I was hooked since the beginning, so it’s good. I appreciate that there are different narrators for each POV. Though I didn’t really like Alice’s narrator. IDK I felt like she’s too flat? But the other two were perfect.
Definitely would continue listening to the rest of the audiobook.

I… enjoyed this. The prose is great, the narrators all bring the characters alive, and were without a doubt the best part of this book.
If I had the whole book, I don’t think I would DNF, but since I don’t have the whole book, I’m not sure I will go out of my way to read the rest of it.

This review made me even more on the edge of my seat for this book to be released!! I love the idea of the sapphic vampire mood and im already obsessed!

Thank you for the audiobook sampler!
I wouldn’t say I’m hooked quite yet, but I’m excited to see where the story goes from here.
The narrators for Maria and Alice are great; I would’ve loved to have heard a chapter from the third protagonist.

If Drusilla was your favorite character on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, this book belongs in your hands immediately.
But in case that oddly specific endorsement isn’t enough: this is the story of three dangerously unhinged vampires—dripping with hunger, grief, love, and fury—woven through timelines, continents, and centuries. It’s gothic, it’s bloody, it’s heartbreakingly tender. You feel every ache with them. Every loss. Every moment of rage and loneliness.
Yes, they’re toxic. And yes, I love them. I support women’s rights AND women’s wrongs, and I will not hear a single bad word about Sabine. I’m deadly serious.
V.E. Schwab already shattered me with Addie LaRue so you’d think I’d know better. But no. I picked this up and had an ache in my chest reading the entire time. Her writing is lyrical poetry in the way that it feels like she’s pulling your heart slowly from your chest. It’s painful. It’s beautiful. It’s addictive. The V.E. Schwab drug.

Thank you for the sneak peek! The narrators were 10/10 and I will picking up this book on release day!
