We Could Be So Good
by
by
I had a bit of a struggle getting used to the narrator whose accents didn't work for me and also the writing style which was a lot of telling instead of showing. I listened on audio so I stuck with it and eventually - around the 80% mark, both the narrator and the characters grew on me. Both sweet and charming with a lot of external elements forcing stress on them.
I'd recommend listening to a sample first to see if the narrator works for you but I understand if you don't because I never do. Or maybe just give it a read in paper.

"This has really good reviews but the opening feels like all telling no showing and I’m kind of disappointed. I’ll keep going though"

"The narrator was an unfortunate choice. His American accents are killing my ears. Guess I’ll keep going and torturing myself because I usually really enjoy this writers work."

"Sometimes a narrator grows on me. This one is starting to but the story still feels like it’s missing something and I still feel like I’m being told everything. Weird because I don’t remember this writers other books being written like this. Or maybe I’m just grouchier"
