About this listen

Once the golden boy of the English literary scene, now a clinically depressed writer of pulp crime fiction, Ash Winters has given up on hope, happiness, and—most of all—himself. He lives his life between the cycles of his illness, haunted by the ghosts of other people’s expectations.

Then a chance encounter throws him into the path of Essex-born Darian Taylor. By his own admission, Darian isn’t the crispest lettuce in the fridge, but he makes Ash laugh, reminding him of what it’s like to step beyond the boundaries of anxiety. But Ash has been living in his own shadow for so long that he can’t see past the glitter to the light. Can a man who doesn’t trust himself ever trust in happiness? And how can a man who doesn’t believe in happiness ever fight for his own?

I needed a sweet love story with deep characters and daaamn.. The narrator is so so amazing, perfect for this story! I laughed throughout and cried so much in the end.. Only to laugh again ❤️

I cried so much

The narration didn’t quite work for me, and I struggled to connect with Ash as a character. I never really felt like I knew him, which made it hard to invest emotionally. The writing has moments of sharpness, but overall, it just didn’t land for me.
