Summary

Eddie and Andrew have dynamite chemistry. But Eddie is profoundly dyslexic, and Andrew lives to read. Andrew is pathologically disorganized, and Eddie likes things neat and clutter-free. Andrew is desperately ashamed of his hoarder father, and Eddie is embarrassed by his lack of education - secrets that could pull them apart even as a friend's tragedy brings them together. When Andrew's father's condition deteriorates and he nearly dies because of his compulsion, Eddie and Andrew must learn compassion begins with loving oneself because Grime Doesn't Pay.

Exceeds expectations

Is it a good or a bad thing when the reader of an audio book exceeds the value of the writing? This is beautifully read.
It is impossible to contemplate what the book might have been like without the performance.

Great characters

I really enjoyed this book. We have lots of issues challenged in this storyline that really does help open your eyes to peoples circumstances and not to judge. These characters are loving and beautifully written. Amazing heartfelt performance from Joe.

Scorching love story.

There are many beautiful and emotional elements in a Eddie and Andrew's story and their chemistry is amazing. I just love them together. I love the family and friends connection with the supporting characters

Enjoyable book

I enjoyed the book very much. I like the way in which the books in the series address actual issues and show how the characters deal with them. The narrator was great. He performed each character and accents superbly. Because the next book in the series is a written book, I will be reading it rather than listening to it. Can't wait. :)

A bit uneventful

Nothing wrong, nothing special. Although I had to eyeroll about the coincidence a professional cleaner finds a boyfriend in need of a cleaner.
The narration was a bit bland.
