Summary

Gabe lives a double life. As Gabriel Henson, he works multiple jobs to support his remorseless alcoholic mother. As Tony Ryder, he does Internet porn for extra cash. When he encounters a scared young man freaking out in a nightclub, Gabe is compelled to reach out. Ever since then the memory of that young man has haunted him.

Tristan Lavelle lives his life 30 minutes at a time. After a traumatic brain injury three years ago, he gets through his days recording his life in spiral notebooks and sticky note reminders. A month after Tristan's embarrassingly public meltdown, another chance meeting with Gabe sparks a warm, emotionally fulfilling email relationship. Both men crave more but fear of the next step stands between them - until Tristan gets the opportunity to take part in a clinical trial that could improve his memory.

I didn't realise this was the second book in a series until I finished listening but I loved the storyline and characters and the narration was good.

listen at 1.25 speed

Narrator was extremely slow. when I sped it up to 1.25 he sounded much better. suspect the book was put out incorrectly at a slow speed and this isn't the narrator's usual talking speed.

liked the book though. it was sweet and not too challenging.

Beautiful

Outstanding. An incredibly moving, touching story which makes us consider the world in a completely different way, through Tristan whose brain injury has left him with an incredibly short term memory. His interaction with the world, with his few friends, is something that we want to pay attention to and at the same time we want to hear more of Gabe, the beautiful, patient, loving Gabe.

Guy Locke picks up the story from where he left it in book 1. Some of the same characters whom we now know, come back and new ones come in, its a beautiful mix, we feel we know them very well by the end and I, for one, didn't really want it to end, story, narrator, characters. I fell in love with them all and the story is most certainly one I could hear again.

Second part in series, with aome technical issues.

It is a very unusual how Tristan and Gabe meet and despite Tristan his severe memory problems due to a gay bashing a few years ago. They have an click, evwn tough Tristan has his difficultiea. I appreciate that he is the one that initiate steps to further their blossoming relationship.
My one nagging thing throughout the whole book was, why does Gabe feel reaponsible for his mums debts and how the heck can she buy thibgs when her cards are not accesible. 📚 4-
Naration:
I think something went wrong with the upload or mastering of the audiobook. It needs to liaten3d to at least at 1,2 and there are several ' changes' in how the 'bqckvround' sounds. Deapite all the technical issues the telling itself is okay. 🎧 4-
Overall 4-
Triggers might apply: gay bashing off-page, parental abuse and addiction.

Narration way too slow

Listen on at least 1.25x speed to keep your sanity. Story was a lovely sequel to book one.
