Nothing Like The Movies

De: Lynn Painter

Narrado por: Charlie Bushnell, Jesse Vilinsky

#1 New York Times Bestseller

In this highly anticipated sequel to the New York Times bestselling Better Than the Movies, Wes and Liz struggle to balance their feelings for each other with the growing pains of being a college student in a “worthy second-chance romance” (Kirkus Reviews).

For a few beautiful months, Wes had his dream girl: strong-willed girl-next-door Liz. But right as the two were about to set off to UCLA to start their freshman year together, tragedy struck. Wes was left dealing with the fallout, which ultimately meant losing Liz in the process.

Flash forward months and months later and Wes and Liz find themselves in college, together. In a healthier place now, Wes knows he broke Liz’s heart when he ended things, but he is determined to make her fall back in love with him.

Wes knows Liz better than anyone, and he has a foolproof plan to win her back with the rom-com worthy big gestures she loves. Only…Liz will have none of it. Wes has to scheme like a rom-com hero to figure out how to see her. Even worse, Liz has a new friend…a guy friend.

Still, Wes won’t give up, adapting his clever plans and going hard to get Liz’s attention and win back her affection. But after his best efforts get him nowhere, Wes is left wondering if their relationship is really over for good.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Narrators Jesse Vilinsky and Charlie Bushnell are swoon-worthy in this highly anticipated sequel to BETTER THAN THE MOVIES. The story is told from alternating perspectives. Wes is re-doing his freshman year at UCLA after quitting school, moving back home to deal with a tragedy, and breaking up with Liz. Liz is drawn back to Wes when her internship requires them to work together. Wes is prepared to make every romantic gesture for the girl who loves love, but does he still know Liz after their time apart? Vilinsky brings her signature vibrant delivery, which includes gleeful screams, anguished shouts, and worried whispers. Bushnell exudes charm and provides excellent emotional range. His flat, ragged voice when Wes is in turmoil contrasts with his peppy voice full of gratitude at being back."

Narrator is brutal

Really loved the book, but the female narrator was so horrible to listen to on Audible. The guy who plays Wes is awesome, but the girl was super screeching and whiny the entire time and anytime she was doing the voice of Wes. It sounded like Dumbledore were on his deathbed.

Their love story!!!!

I loved the whole thing! I read better than the movies before this, and I was so excited to read this, but it blew me away! It crossed the standard that I was expecting by a ton!!!

Feel good summer book
