TW: ableism, anxiety, panic attacks, suicidal ideation, death of a parent, grief, coping after cancer, infertility, gaslighting, toxic ass family members.there's definitely some that I am probably missing so please check out other reviews. I did go into this one thinking that it would be a lighter read similar to the previous two books, but it is NOT! I LOVED every second of this book, but please be mindful of triggers for this one! Physically reading this book might have made it more enjoyable.ĭear Helen, you really didn't need to rip out my heart in this manner. Unfortunately, I didn’t like this audiobook version as much as the other two in the series. Thank you Netgalley and Dreamscape Media for this ARC. Don’t get me wrong, some of my favorite audiobook narrators are male, but this one just didn’t fit the character, to me. Overall, I wish this book would have taken the same route as the other audiobooks for this series and just had a female narration. He had some strange inflections and spoke more like, I would imagine, an excited dog (if they could speak human). I was not as impressed with the male narrator. I liked her voices for all the characters – I kinda wish she would have done the whole novel. So, if you are looking for a light-hearted romance, this really isn’t it.Īudio: The female narrator was really good. It was really challenging to listen to, honestly. For so long, she has tried to keep herself looking and acting “normal,” careening her into depression by the end of the novel – with Quan the only one to keep her grounded. Anna’s character is really complex, her diagnoses of autism later in life sends her into a tailspin. It doesn’t feel like the same person, which I guess is understandable because of the hardship he’s gone through the past few years. This novel, though, is marred with almost the opposite. He was so confident, carefree, funny, and supportive of his family. Story: I was really looking forward to Quan’s story. As they settle into a nice friendship, enjoying each other company, feelings begin to deepen. Although each is looking for a one-night stand, after 4 weeks/dates they have not gone all the way things keep getting in the way. Anna, a quirky violist whose boyfriend decided he wanted an open relationship, catches his attentions. After recovering from cancer and lack of confidence, Quan joins some dating apps at the behest of his cousin, Michael (from the Kiss Quotient) – get yourself back out there. Quan gets his own story in The Heart Principle.
