Opposite of Always

This is a great book that I would highly recommend for anyone. Jake King is not just a story character, he feels like a real person that you can really feel for. Okay, that was cheesy.

Sweet, well-written story + great narration

There is a special art to starting a book by confusing your readers while subtly promising, through competent writing, that it will all make sense in the end. I think this author does it well in this book👏

This story starts with an intense life-or-death situation then backs into a sweet teen romance that explains how we got there. The writing style was consistent and enjoyable throughout-humorous and engaging with lots of tugs on the heartstrings.

Our MC, Jack, is seriously the sweetest. Even when he messes up, I couldn’t help but root for him. There are a couple of love interests here for Jack, and I like that the author doesn’t make one of them a schmuck so that the other is the obvious choice. There are also strong friendships and tough choices that make you feel for everyone involved.

The narration is excellent.

First time love, or second, or third or...

I'll admit, I'm a little (actually a LOT) older than the average YA reader, but I love this genre because of the way the impossible looks possible from YA eyes, and that's what this book has in spades-- a teenager doing the impossible for love, over and over again, because he hopes and he knows something better is possible. The whole cast of characters came to life for me-- Jillian, Franny, Kate and Jack, in cute, funny, poignant, and at times heart-breaking ways, and the audiobook narration is one of the best I've heard. I started with a smile and I ended with a smile, and as a reader, I can't ask for anything more.

Second Chances...and thirds...

What would you do with your second chance? If you could go back with the knowledge of where you made mistakes, what would you change? This story is a twist on the questions we always ask about changing the past, updates for today’s youth.

Cheese Ball

This book was cute but SOOO cheesey! Rolled my eyes a few times! 😂 I guess it works if you’re looking for something light to read!

lovable and endearing and a really fun listen

What a fun pick me up book. it started slowly, and I didn't think I'd get into it. But it picks up a few chapters in, and I couldn't put it down. The dialogue is pretty believable, the characters endearing, and the twists fun to unravel. I enjoyed the performance, though some of the accents didn't quite fit. They were not distracting, though, just noticeable. I highly recommend this story.

Great story!

I love this book and the audiobook was great as well. The reader did an excellent job! There’s a lot of funny lines in here. Will probably listen again and again.

I loved every second!

The story was so cute and I loved the narrator. He did an excellent job.

Groundhog day, but better

This was a fun read. The characters were believable, relatable, and well developed. I got the whole spectrum of emotions from this book. It was brilliant.

Excellent read for any audience!

This was an excellent story told by a very talented writer. Very entertaining! I look forward to more from this author.
