Twelve-year-old Norman Foreman and his best friend, Jax, are a legendary comedic duo in waiting, with a plan to take their act all the way to the Edinburgh Fringe. But when Jax dies, Norman decides the only fitting tribute is to perform at the festival himself. The problem is, Norman’s not the funny one. Jax was.

I laughed and I cried. Laughed out loud, Cried into my swimming goggles - I listen while swimming laps. One of my absolute favourite listens.

Somewhat juvenile storyline, beautifully performed
Revisado: 01-25-23
Enjoyable if somewhat juvenile story, read beautifully by Ell Potter. But language alert - full of unnecessary profanities, and religious expletives that could be very offensive to some.

When she shows up at a Montana gas station, clutching an infant and screaming for help, investigators believe she may have been abducted by a cult.

What a waste
Revisado: 01-30-22
Unbelievable and disappointing. The story line was so far over the top, and the narration was irritating. The voices were as unbelievable as the characters themselves.. Sorry I wasted my time listening to this drivel.

Revisado: 11-09-20
It could be a good story, but I'll have to read it to find out. The narration was so poor that I couldn't get past the first few chapter. The pauses were all in the wrong places, the intonation was irritating, It was just impossible to enjoy listening. Sorry.

What happens when the one that got away comes back? Find out in this sparkling debut from Mhairi McFarlane. Rachel and Ben. Ben and Rachel. It was them against the world. Until it all fell apart. It’s been a decade since they last spoke, but when Rachel bumps into Ben one rainy day, the years melt away. They’d been partners in crime and the best of friends. But life has moved on: Ben is married. Rachel is not. Yet in that split second, Rachel feels the old friendship return. And along with it, the broken heart she’s never been able to mend.

So disappointed
Revisado: 08-25-20
I love Julie Hesmondhalgh the actress, which was why I bought this book. But so disappointed. I’m a native English speaker (from the north, no less) but could not follow the narration. Could get past the accent but not the way words ran together and the strange intonation. I even started over to see if it got any better, but no luck. So couldn’t appreciate the story at all.

It’s summer in the city and passions are soaring along with the temperature - for everyone but Mitchell Fisher, who hates all things romance. He relishes his job cutting off the padlocks that couples fasten to the famous “love story” bridge. Only his young daughter, Poppy, knows that behind his prickly veneer, Mitchell still grieves the loss of her mother.

Nine people gather at a remote health resort. Some are here to lose weight, some are here to get a reboot on life, some are here for reasons they can’t even admit to themselves. Amidst all of the luxury and pampering, the mindfulness and meditation, they know these ten days might involve some real work. But none of them could imagine just how challenging the next ten days are going to be.

Could not stand to lsten to this reader a moment l
Revisado: 12-26-19
The story seems like it could be decent, but I could not listen to the narration a moment longer, Th inflection in the sentences is all wrong, the sentences are broken up in all the wrong places, and I some times wonder if the reader even understands what she is reading. For a story set in the north east, the accents are all wrong - no-one in Whitley Bay sounds like these characters. The "southern" pronunciation of "Newcastle" grated every time I heard it. And just overall the performance was breathy and irritating. I see the book is available via Kindle Unlimited, so I will finish reading this book the traditional way.
