I listened to this one on my drive from Massachusetts to Illinois for our move and I was absolutely in love with it! I saw some fairly mixed reviews and I think I might be in the minority with this one and I don't mind one bit! I've said it a million times that I often enjoy the cliche romances so that might be it but I also think that if I read this in a physical format I might not have liked it as much as I did. There are three chapters which were really more like parts so listening to them didn't make it feel as long. I was completely captivated throughout the whole book, found myself laughing out loud, smiling, crying and even speaking back to the characters! I found the story and format to be a lot different than most romances I've read and I truly enjoyed it. Highly recommend not only the book, but the audiobook!
SOLID 4.5 Star Read
I'm not usually one for a slow-burn romance because I find the things that tear people apart in those scenarios are unrealistic and stupid and not something that would *actually* keep people apart. (Also, if you've read it, you just got my inside joke.)This story, however, felt so real o had to pull myself out of it now and again to remind me that this was not a memoir.
Normally I listen to books at at least a 1.5x speed. This book I listened at 1.2x because I didn't want to miss a thing (cue Aerosmith). This speaks volumes of my respect and enjoyment of the writing itself...not just a story to entertain me. Beautifully done.
Highly recommend.

Uh oh, the main character that I found a little annoying turned out to have the same major character flaws that I do!
