I normally don't right reviews

This is a beautiful work. I got all worked up and emotional. Definitely would play it again.

Left me wanting more

This will be my benchmark for short stories. The narration was excellent, the story-line interesting, sad, yet hopeful.

Beautiful and Beautifully Written

I just finished this short story and burst into tears tears. I can't remember the last time I was so moved. So much emotion and context in such a short, little package, all beautifully rendered, I wish it were novel length. Heading back over to audible now to find more of Cander's work. What a fabulous find!

Decent

I thought this was a relatively quick and decent listen. I didn’t actually mind the switching back-and-forth between the past and the present as the storyteller was telling about his brother and then his current predicament. However, for the length of the audiobook, I think only one path should’ve really been chosen.

The only real issue that I had with the story was the narrators huge gasps of breath in between some paragraphs. That was really annoying and quite bothersome.

Beautiful Story, Beautifully Written

I loved every bit of this story. It’s compelling from the start, with interesting characters and an unforgettable plot. Cander is masterful with character development, and with her nuanced depictions of how each character navigates the reality she creates for them. I cannot wait to meet more of the flawed, fascinating people she depicts.

Great Story

This was a really good story, which left me wanting more. I appreciated listening to the emotions of a strong man. I liked the honesty, diversity, and the fact that he loved his partner for being dark and different.

worth your time

The story overall was good but the ending was perfect. Just enough to make it worth your time.

Just the right short.

Beautifully written and quite gripping towards the end. Feels like having the right cup of tea at the right moment. Truly loved the writing. Un pretentious story telling.
