Best Audible Audio Play to Date

Revisado: 03-12-25

The acting of these characters was so good! I was really pulled into their very different personalities and love the narrative set up and arch. Not enough stories get told about the tensions around friendship and this was so well done. And so funny and heartwarming. I want to see more from these characters and want to read more by these writers. also - I love that it's 4 hours long - enough to finish in a couple round-trip commutes but not too long to take over all your audio time for a couple of months. And it was so well produced! and what was that song???

Fun Listen

Revisado: 10-25-23

This book was really easy to listen to while going about the day. I felt a lot of anxiety reliving the recession but it was a good frame for a road trip story.

Believe the Hype

Revisado: 09-30-23

Muslim memoirs can usually be campy but not this. The writer intertwines religiousity through stories of prophets and challenges the dogmatic thinking that she was raised with and sees in society. Her story takes a path which reminds me a lot of my own - going from isolation into finding a path rich of people similar to herself that challenge her to be better. Reader is great too.

what happened?

Revisado: 06-29-23

I love a well produced audio drama, but I just couldn't follow along to the storyline! I had no idea what was going and eventually gave up. too bad since I love so many of the actors.

I Give Up - Don't Waste Your Money!

Revisado: 09-08-22

I couldn't even make it through the first chapter - this reader sounds like when the kid in junior high was made to read outloud and it was always monotonous. no punctuation, no intonation. I'm super disappointed I wasted money in this - I will just go get the paper book copy and read it myself.

Triggering

Revisado: 10-16-21

Whoa, this story tackled some serious topics -- didn't expect it from a romcom! still a fun read, but def more emotional and triggering than the usual Desi Rom Com book! No spoilers but you have been warned!

Was Wondering Where He Went

Revisado: 06-09-21

I was wondering what happened to my college friend and whether he got famous, and I guess I got my answer in this book. We should all have siblings write mid-life biopic novellas about their siblings life so that the rest of us can have a proper catchup without needing to make a phone call.

pointless

Revisado: 03-27-21

I do not understand what I just listened to and ended the book completely upset I had wasted my time on this. Don't bother, even if free. it's not worth your time. free!

Just Fine

Revisado: 03-23-21

Was not as entertaining as The Pisces. And the calorie counting was triggering. She has mastered the ennui voice of the White Girl Angeleno. But I just had been hoping for more fun in this story.

I was entertaining and loved that she dug into her Desi side for these stories.
