Historia
Management consultant Lucie Yi is done waiting for Mr. Right. After a harrowing breakup foiled her plans for children—and drove her to a meltdown in a Tribeca baby store—she’s ready to take matters into her own hands. She signs up for an elective co-parenting website to find a suitable partner with whom to procreate—as platonic as family planning can be.

DNF
Revisado: 07-12-22
I feel like this book is slow to the point, I didn't finish, The narrator is great and the story was compelling, but I got 5 hours in and it still wasn't picking up. I also felt like both of them were really reactive over small things. Maybe this was to underline their traumas?
Otherwise, I typically like this author, I'll try to catch the next book.

Historia
Nora Stephens' life is books—she’s read them all—and she is not that type of heroine. Not the plucky one, not the laidback dream girl, and especially not the sweetheart. In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby.

I loved this book so much, and the narrator is soooo good at her job. I honestly can't say anything more

Historia
Bea Schumacher is a devastatingly stylish plus-size fashion blogger who has amazing friends, a devoted family, legions of Insta followers—and a massively broken heart. Like the rest of America, Bea indulges in her weekly obsession: the hit reality show Main Squeeze. The fantasy dates! The kiss-off rejections! The surprising amount of guys named Chad! But Bea is sick and tired of the lack of body diversity on the show. Since when is being a size zero a prerequisite for getting engaged on television?

A great pairing to watch the bachelorette!
Revisado: 12-23-20
I really enjoyed this book, paired with this season of the bachelorette, it’s been fun to listen along.
Great performance and twists and turns, I only wish that she felt better about herself the whole time, it can be a bit triggering hearing all her concerns about her body. But we work through that to a great ending - so woo!

Historia
Luna Rexroth is everyone’s favorite wallflower. Underneath the meek, tomboy exterior everyone loves (yet pities) is a girl who knows exactly what, and who, she wants - namely, the boy from the tree house who taught her how to curse in sign language. Who taught her how to laugh. To live. To love. Knight Cole is everyone’s favorite football hero. This daredevil hell-raiser could knock you up with his gaze alone, but he only has eyes for the girl across the street: Luna. But Luna is not who she used to be. She doesn’t need his protection anymore.

Cringeworthy Toxic Relationships
Revisado: 09-12-19
I couldn’t make it to the end to see how things turned out but if they end up together I’m mad. His possessiveness and outright verbal abuse was hard to listen to.
Performers were great, but the story was too hard to stomach.

Historia
Laurie is sure love at first sight doesn't exist anywhere but the movies. But then, through a misted-up bus window one snowy December day, she sees a man who she knows instantly is the one. Their eyes meet, there's a moment of pure magic...and then her bus drives away. Certain they're fated to find each other again, Laurie spends a year scanning every bus stop and cafe in London for him. But she doesn't find him, not when it matters anyway. Instead they "reunite" at a Christmas party, when her best friend, Sarah, giddily introduces her new boyfriend: the man from the bus.

I wanted to like it
Revisado: 04-08-19
To be honest, it was both too realistic and unrealistic. The whole book I was kind of willing the characters to pull their heads out of the sand and it wasn’t a fun silly Christmas type romance I was expecting. The performers were great and their voices were the only thing driving me to continue listening to the book.
It takes place over YEARS of time, kind of like that love, Rosie movie- which I also didn’t like. So if you liked Love Rosie, you May like this book.

Presents are being wrapped and reservations are being made when Nick’s clever and beautiful wife disappears. Husband-of-the-Year Nick isn’t doing himself any favors with cringe-worthy daydreams about the slope and shape of his wife’s head, but passages from Amy's diary reveal the alpha-girl perfectionist could have put anyone dangerously on edge.

Voice actors do an amazing job at the point of views in the story, changing tone at exactly the right moment. Enjoy this read! It's fantastic.

The audio didn't draw me in very much, it has an intriguing story that I might try and get in paper form but it just could not hold my attention and I was prone to zone out and miss major plot points
