In Depth Review
Overall I really loved this story and listened to it in only a matter of days. It’s super cute, fun, and stays interesting throughout while developing the characters and their relationships to each other. A story of love under the stars against the odds.I personally really vibed with this story because I could relate to a few of the themes, such as:
- Learning that you love camping, hiking, and the solitude and quiet of the outdoors
- Any mention of thru-hiking
- Planning and excessive amounts of calendars
- Star watching and astronomy
If I had to describe this book in two words: cute and enthralling.
Audiobook Review
- Narrated by Amy Melissa Bentley, who from my research mainly does audiobook narrations.
- Good pacing and telling of the story, I really enjoyed it.
- Done in an American accent.
- Amy does not overdo voicing of characters, but there is enough of a difference to be able to easily tell who is talking at any given time.
