Lydia Quixano Pérez lives in the Mexican city of Acapulco. She runs a bookstore. She has a son, Luca, the love of her life, and a wonderful husband who is a journalist. And while there are cracks beginning to show in Acapulco because of the drug cartels, her life is, by and large, fairly comfortable. When Lydia’s husband’s tell-all profile of Javier, the jefe of the newest drug cartel that has gruesomely taken over the city, is published, none of their lives will ever be the same.

Histoire
Olivia McAfee knows what it feels like to start over. Her picture-perfect life—living in Boston, married to a brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon, raising their beautiful son, Asher—was upended when her husband revealed a darker side. She never imagined that she would end up back in her sleepy New Hampshire hometown, living in the house she grew up in and taking over her father’s beekeeping business. Lily Campanello is familiar with do-overs, too. When she and her mom relocate to Adams, New Hampshire, for her final year of high school, they both hope it will be a fresh start.

Description
The Outside Boy is a poignant coming-of-age novel about an Irish gypsy boy’s childhood in the 1950s from Jeanine Cummins, the national best-selling author of A Rip in Heaven and American Dirt.
Ireland, 1959: Young Christopher Hurley is a tinker, a Pavee gypsy, who roams with his father and extended family from town to town, carrying all their worldly possessions in their wagons. Christy carries with him a burden of guilt as well, haunted by the story of his mother's death in childbirth.
The wandering life is the only one Christy has ever known, but when his grandfather dies, everything changes. His father decides to settle briefly, in a town, where Christy and his cousin can receive proper schooling and prepare for their first communions. But still, always, they are treated as outsiders.
As Christy struggles to find his way amid the more conventional lives of his new classmates, he starts to question who he is and where he belongs. But then the discovery of an old newspaper photograph, and a long-buried secret from his mother's mysterious past, changes his life forever....

Well written
At first it felt hard to pay attention as she described their normal lives. But then I got attached to the story and how believable the characters were and their emotions.

Beautiful story, great performance!
The story is very interesting and well written with the characters very well described.
This is now one of my favorite books I am going to recommend to my friends.
Also, after listening this book I learned more from other sources about the ethnic group known as Irish Travellers (Pavees) and their life today.

Incredible experience listening to The Outside Boy
I loved this book so much I can't even tell you! I cared so much about these characters, especially the boy, Christy. The story was rich and intriguing, the performance was fantastic - loved the authenticity of the accent, it took me right into Christy's world. I know I will come back to this story again one day. It was a tear-jerker though, oh my gosh.. My heart swelled up with love and burst a few times. Very cleansing - haha!

Loved it - Top 10 narration
I wasn’t sure that I was going to like this book, as the description didn’t really intrigue me. It is a bit slow paced but it has depth and builds strong foundations for the characters and the world they live in.
She is a gifted author. I am so glad I decided to get this in an audiobook because it is one of the best narrations I have heard. The combination of both of their storytelling skills really made this a great listen. I am now searching for more books by this author and other books narrated by him.
