Teresa Benedetto and Ellie Ryan couldn’t be more different, at least on the surface. Teresa still lives at home. As much as she loves her boisterous Italian family, she feels trapped by them and their plans for her life. Their love is suffocating her. Ellie has been on her own for years, working hard to save up enough to live her dream of escaping from Pittsburgh to travel the world. Except leaving isn’t that simple when she knows her brother is out on the streets of the city somewhere, back from Vietnam, but not home.

Beautiful story and narration
Revisado: 07-13-19
Cast Me Gently has been one of my favourite books since I first read it. The reader feels the powerful emotions of first love and coming out along with Teresa and Ellie. They are both such relatable and realistic characters. The story explores the strong, but sometimes stifling, bonds of Teresa’s big family, in contrast to Ellie’s experience of losing her parents at a young age and searching for her long-lost brother. We see how love changes each of them, against the gritty backdrop of Pittsburgh in 1980.
Shalauna Casey’s narration is wonderful. I’m told she’s a native of Pittsburgh, so this provides authenticity to the voices she gives the characters and adds an extra touch to this audiobook. Definitely worth a listen!
