Reviews with content warning for Infidelity - Thank You for Listening

I don’t think I’ve laughed this much in a romance!!!! Literally LOL (or Lots of Love). This book has the best banter (the text exchanges, oh ma lawd) I’ve read, granted I’m not the most prolific romance reader. Like, I want to flirt like this too?? I laughed with Sewanee, cried with her, pained with her, and loved Blah. It wasn't difficult at all to believe in the romance in this book; I bought the attraction and desire entirely, allowing me to sink into the world that the author built.

Only marginally away from a full 5-star book because there were points that I thought dragged on for a bit too long (though I understand was for more tension to be built between the two characters), but I secretly wish they just GOT ON WITH IT.

Accompany your reading experience with the audiobook, PLEASE !! And it was also such a fun and easy way to learn insights into the audiobook industry - I listen to A LOT of audiobooks, so I appreciated how the book went into detailing aspects of the industry I’d never have learned.

When picking this up, the only thing I knew about it was that it was written by my favorite audiobook narrator, Julia Whelan. Turns out, it's a romcom, with several big dashes of past trauma and difficult family decisions and dynamics. Even with some more serious aspects, it made me laugh out loud several times. While there were a few steamy sections, they weren't over the top, and were pretty short, which I appreciated.

She also uses her incredible talent to make this story more full. It really lives up to its full potential in audiobook form, for obvious reasons. I would 100% pick it over the printed version. Some magic, and even some plot, might be lost or less satisfying in print.

This was a really fun read, and I'm glad I picked it up!
