Some Voices Do It For Me
But Sandi Hunts was not it. Now... Marcio Catalano does.
The Tropes
- [✔️] dual pov
- [✔️] enemies to lovers
- [✔️] age gap
- [✔️] father's best friend
The Characters
Yasmin: Yasmin is such a strong character and I loved her so much. She was someone who I felt like I could find myself looking up to because of her fire. She inspired something in me and gave me things to hold onto as a woman who is typically rather docile. I need to take a few pages out of her book and allow myself to stand up for myself in a way that I know Yasmin would have.
Julian:
The Things I Loved
I loved the book beyond belief and adored the audiobook.
The Things I Didn't Love
Literally just the accents.
The Final Verdict
If accents bother you, do not listen to the audiobook. Sandi did wonderful accents, but Marcio did not do any and it bothered me to no end. Despite this, if you love hearing a delicious man saying filthy things, you might need to give the audiobook a try. Whether you listen to the audiobook or you read it, you need to consume this book in some way shape or format before the end of the year. I feel like anyone who enjoys retellings will enjoy this book.
