Story
It’s Valentine’s Day weekend, and Charlotte and Seth are not looking for romance. Armed with emotional-support bear spray, Charlotte is in self-imposed isolation and on guard from men. Having a stalker can do that to a person’s nerves. Just across the hall and giving off woodsy vibes is Seth, a recently divorced arborist. As in today recently. Heights, he’s fine with. Trust? Not so much.

I enjoyed this quick listen. It was a cute story and storytelling. Sometimes I need a quick pick me up and can’t invest in hours of listening. The story got to the point in perfect timing.

Justin has a curse, and thanks to a Reddit thread, it's now all over the internet. Every woman he dates goes on to find their soul mate the second they break up. When a woman slides into his DMs with the same problem, they come up with a plan: They'll date each other and break up.

Story
In Gay Girl, Good God, author Jackie Hill Perry shares her own story, offering practical tools that helped her in the process of finding wholeness. Jackie grew up fatherless and experienced gender confusion. She embraced masculinity and homosexuality with every fiber of her being. She knew that Christians had a lot to say about all of the above. But was she supposed to change herself? How was she supposed to stop loving women, when homosexuality felt more natural to her than heterosexuality ever could?

This is for every Christian. This book is so relatable because sin is universal. I love how she makes everything so practical and clear. You truly bless me Jackie Hill Perry. Praise God.

I wasn’t in love with storyline or performance. The readers sounded robotic and did not gel well to me. It ended well but wasn’t my favorite by her.

Gabby Mays wishes she had her future figured out, like her gorgeous roommate Anna-Marie, who has just landed a role on the hit soap opera Passion Medical. Gabby would give anything to find a career she’s half as passionate about as Anna-Marie is about acting - and a love life that isn’t comprised of nights with a party-sized bag of Doritos and her Netflix account. When Gabby becomes a recurring extra on Passion Medical, she finds a job she’s surprisingly great at. Even better, her old crush and ex-boss - the sexy, sweet Will Bowen - is writing the scripts.

She beats up on herself too much for me. Story is ok she just always thinks the worst and low of herself. It’s hard to listen to so much self loathing. I had to just stop reading.

I enjoy all her books but this was especially great. It was different as it was not related to the many others. It was a fresh story with new characters. The reader was great too. I’m ready for the next one.
