No Two Persons by Erica Bauermeister is the story of an aspiring author who finally has a breakthrough after a traumatic event in her life and is able to produce a novel that gets published. We follow this novel from the author's hands to the literary assistant, the actor, the artist, the diver, the teenager, the bookseller, the caretaker, the coordinator, and finally the agent. Each chapter is from the point of view of the person who has somehow acquired the book, almost as if by fate, and how the book impacts their life. "One book, nine readers, ten changed lives."
The narration for this audiobook was incredible. Each character was narrated by a different voice actor and truly transported you into the story. The pacing was perfect as well.
This book is beautifully written and I did not want it to end. From someone who deeply loves books and reading I had a great appreciation for this story. I know I have personally had books that have affected me on otherworldly levels and I'm always quick to recommend these to my friends and family. This book will definitely be one of my top recommendations to other book lovers.
Thank you to NetGalley, St Martins Press, and Macmillan Audio for a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
