About this listen

A funny, uplifting story about love, music, and second chances, Not Famous is perfect for fans of Nick Hornby, Mike Gayle, and Jonathan Tropper.

Nick bought a diamond symbol of forever, got down on one knee, and expected to welcome the New Year with his fiancée in his arms. Instead, his girlfriend’s bombshell confession left him humiliated, alone, and distrustful. Can meeting a shy barista named Alli make Nick’s heart open again?

Although socially awkward and naïve, Alli has both secrets and dreams. Her ambition, drive, and talent as a singer/songwriter could make her the next Taylor Swift.

Alli, with no experience of big-city life, dives into Boston’s indie music scene, but Nick fears the motives of a man who offers her help. Can their relationship survive Nick’s jealousy and Alli’s secrets?

Enthusiastic reviewers have called Not Famous a “brilliant, uplifting debut novel” for its “pitch-perfect story” and “well-developed characters that…tug at the heartstrings.”

An Actual Romance

I haven't listened to much in the romance category for awhile, because sex has replaced romance generally in that category. And frankly, I wasn't sure this was going to be any different. Boy was I wrong. This turned out to be an actual romance and from a male POV to boot.

The story pulls at the heart strings. It felt like I was listening to the story of how a couple of friends got together. It was sweet and I was rooting the whole time for them.

There is some crude language, which might turn off some people, but other than that, it's a great listen.

Sexist and the narrating is so bad

Ok- I can’t with this book. After a one night stand, the main character says “what kind of girl goes home
With a guy after 30 minutes?” What kind of dude does??? I tried to stick with it- but the narrator does not know how to do a female voice to save his life. It’s almost funny. He also reads like he is asking questions or like something is about to happen, but nothing happens. The cadence is off.
Anyway, it’s not funny and pretty lame.
