Description

There are three things you need to know about Elizabeth Finney: 1) She suffers from severe sarcastic syndrome, especially when she's unnerved, 2) No one unnerves her like Nico Manganiello, and 3) She knows how to knit.

Elizabeth Finney is almost always right about everything: the musical merits of boy bands are undervalued by society, "benefits" with human Ken dolls are better without friendship, and the sun has set on her once-in-a-lifetime chance for true love. But when Elizabeth's plans for benefits without friendship are disarmed by the irritatingly charismatic and chauvinistic Nico Manganiello- her former nemesis- she finds herself struggling to maintain the electric fence around her heart while avoiding electrocution or, worse, falling in love.

Appreciate the balance

I really appreciate the normalizing of consent, it lacks significantly in some books but not here.

Personality of character came through

The story captured the personality type quite well. The journey of loss, fear and perception of love, at such a young age, and how it perpetuated the career path and personality of the main character very well. The constant self doubt and questions, the inner fight came through. From that, I believe that the voice of the narrator matched the character. It would have been great if they actually had a true male narrator to voice the other main character, but I was not bothered by the voice of the character. I felt as though a friend was telling me her story through her eyes. That is how I absorbed the story and how I enjoyed it.

Great Writing

Loved this story. Love the humour and quick wit. Nice change from the common romcom.

It was good

I liked how this story went along side the first book in the series but not enough to take away from the story itself. I enjoyed it and would have kept listening to the next novel but it is no longer free.

Fun

Wished there was two narrators throughout. Epilogue with different narrators was annoying. Enjoyed the continuation of the series

Not nearly as good as books 1 and 1.5

The narrator got a bit better as the story went on, but she was impressively devoid of emotion and really monotone. The story wasn't nearly as fun as the first 2 books and I found it to be annoying. I can see it being fairly accurate, given the early trauma the main character experienced, but I really didn't care for this one.

Terrible

This is by far the worse book I have ever heard. I finally gave up on chapter 6 because it is so bad. Not only is the story horrible but the narrator is the worst. She makes the male characters sound dumb and so slow. I can’t believe I wasted so much time on this ridiculous novel. Yuck if I could give negative stars I would.

Just ok.

The exaggerated voices and fake accents make it really hard to keep listening even though the story seems interesting

Should have listened to the reviews

The narrator definitely makes the MC seem depressed - her tone is very low energy. The main character is also quite immature for a 26 year old resident. She doesn't even realize that's she's a serial monogamist versus not philanderer (as she thinks she is which by the way, seems a very dated attitude given that women should be sex positive SMH). She also keeps referencing another character who is a colleague of hers as Dr. Ken Miles like the whole time she refers to him or talks to him. Nobody does that - they either say Dr. Miles or just refers to their colleague as Ken. It's honestly very annoying. Thank goodness I didnt waste a credit - I am listening via Plus Catalogue. This story likely would have been a bit better if I read it versus listening to it. I also agree about reviewers' comments about the Hero's italian accent - why would he have one. He should just have a regular American accent - he grew up in America.

Great but some odd narration choices

I really enjoyed this one - I was secondhand embarrassed a lot less than I had been in the first two, and the dynamic of love and loss was masterfully and tactfully done.
My only complaint pertains to the voice used to narrate Nico. The narrator used a quasi-Italian accent for a guy that’s supposed to have been raised since infancy in the US, and have attended a fully anglophone school. It took me out of it quite a bit, because here’s this typical Italian-American guy speaking like he was born and raised in Italy and just incidentally took up English.
Also, in the epilogue, he spoke without an accent since a new narrator took over just for that part. Very confusing
Anyways, apart from that, really did enjoy it.
