Thank you for bringing me further into the wonders of fiction and I am very excited to explore all your other titles as soon as I can.Amazon | Barnes and Noble | Goodreads SummaryĪdam’s life used to be perfect. This is quite a long listen in total but I’m so glad it was because I couldn’t stop listening and found myself doing so at every chance I got. The narration was also fantastic from both voice actors, really immersing you in the story the whole way through. These would often be subjects that could easily switch me off a book due to the sensitive and triggering manner of them but the author addresses them in a way that allowed me to engage and journey through them with the characters. However I want to draw appreciation to how the author brings awareness to these issues in a thoughtful and tactful manner without using it purely for “shock factor”. It is not a dark or particularly heavy book but it does feature these themes within the characters stories. I would caution a trigger warning for domestic violence, sexual assault, neglect and death. It explores their interpersonal relationships and the effect this has on the web of characters and how they navigate some of the heavy scenarios life throws at us. It is a story exploring the genuine and vulnerable journey of meeting and falling in love with someone, especially at a young age and dealing with all the complications that can come with that. I stumbled across this book on the featured page on the app thinking I’d give it a try and I’m so glad I did. I think I’ve found a new favourite author Have Jolene and Adam found something real?
