Bigger Love, Book 1

De: Rick R. Reed

Narrado por: Brian Stoddard

Truman Reid is Summitville High’s most out-and-proud senior. He can’t wait to take his fierce, uncompromising self away from his small Ohio River hometown, where he’s suffered more than his share of bullying. He’s looking forward to bright lights and a big city. Maybe he’ll be the first ever genderfluid star to win an Academy Award. But all that changes on the first day of school when he locks eyes with the most gorgeous hunk he’s ever seen.

Mike Stewart, big, dark-haired, and with the most amazing blue eyes, is new to town. He’s quiet, manly, and has the sexy air of a lost soul. It’s almost love at first sight for Truman. He thinks that love could deepen when Mike becomes part of the stage crew for Harvey, the senior class play Truman’s directing. But is Mike even gay? And how will it work when Truman’s mother is falling for Mike’s dad?

Plus Truman, never the norm, makes a daring and controversial choice for the production that has the whole town up in arms.

See how it all plays out on a stage of love, laughter, tears, and sticking up for one’s essential self...

great ya story!

Loved Truman and Mike! I loved how Truman is open and was femme in his own way, he’s also brave. He couldn’t wait to leave his hometown. Mike has recently moved to town; he was out in the town he lived in but here he tries to be under the radar. They are attracted to each other, but Mike is kind of cold to him. Brian Stoddard is a new to me narrator, he did a great job telling the story. Well done. Overall, a great ya story!

Young love

This is a lovely School love, it centres around the adversity that they need to overcome. Sweet, and easy to listen to. Very enjoyable

Great YA story!

Other than the not always great audio quality, this book was pretty good. Loved the sassy, kind-hearted, loving, unapologetically himself (while privately feeling terrified and insecure) hero Truman, and feeling conflicted about his love interest Mike. Truman doesn’t let the bullies stop him, he is awesome!

Bigger Love

I enjoyed this story I really liked Truman and his mom and his friends I didn’t really like mike but Truman did so I’m happy for them and was glad Truman had mikes support at the play.

a heart-felt coming of age

This is my first book by Rick R. Reed and narrator, Brian Stoddard, and I enjoyed every bit of it. It’s a heart-felt coming of age story with real characters facing very real problems.
