The Write Place

Leade Park, Book 1

De: Allie Samberts

Narrado por: Megan Carver

Finding love is finding where you belong.

Mackenzie Milcrest–Miss Mac to her students–is a high school English teacher, comfortable with her job, her life, and her place in the world. The only thing she loves more than her students is a good book and a quiet night alone to cozy up and read. She’s happy…

Or, at least, she thinks she is.

Daniel Evans is a world-famous writer—and for good reason. Over ten years ago, when he was still a teenager, his first book became a runaway hit, and readers have not stopped asking for more ever since. Now, a decade later, he’s rich. Charming. Handsome…

He’s also suffering from a massive writer’s block.

Desperate to shake things up, Daniel employs the help of his publisher, who only has to pull a couple of strings to get him a front-row seat to his next novel’s setting: a public high school.

All he has to do is sit in Mac’s classroom every day and shadow her every move.

Strictly in the name of research, of course.

The problem is, Mac can’t keep acting like he’s invisible. Not when the pull he has on her grows stronger every second.

Falling in love with Daniel Evans is not in Mac’s lesson plan, but can she ignore how beautifully their stories intertwine?

The Write Place

This is a new to me author and my November Buddy read, which I couldn’t put down once I started!

I was just really able to connect with the characters.
I loved the slow transition into Mac and Daniel’s relationship and the witty remarks and conversations they have. The friendships that they have and built during was priceless. If you are looking for something with a little of everything then this is it..swoon moments, laugh out loud, and a bit of spice with an HEA.

I can’t wait to read the rest in the series!
This is a must read.

I would have loved dual PoV

I would have loved to have both points of view for this book. It was lovely! The narrator wasn’t my absolute favorite but she did very well! Definitely recommend!

Hopelessly romantic

This rom com is so sweet and … believable? Like Nora Ephron believable… Like I could go to work and chat with Mac and Jenny. Like I could TBR Daniel’s books. Just delightful.

A story for book lovers!

It took a while to settle into the narrators take on the characters. Appreciated the bonus chapter that gave voice to the male main characters POV.

I love this book so much!

I read the e-book and was excited to listen to the audio. The audio brought this story up another level and I had so much fun listening. Megan Carver did a great job with the narration. I am excited to listen to the second book in the series!

Great listen!

Such a fun listen. You can only hope most teachers have a little bit of the main characters compassion and commitment. Made plane time fly.

Great story

I think the narration was done so perfectly! I absolutely love this book and read it as an arc the first time, but listening to it this second time as an audiobook just gives it a whole new light to me. It is really just incredible read and I cannot recommend it enough.

A sweet romance story with an ode to teachers

I absolutely loved this one! This was such a sweet and heartwarming story. I found myself relating to many things Mac has to deal with, as a former teacher myself. There were many times throughout this one where I teared up. Mac and Daniel’s story was just so real and raw. It was such an emotional read, and I loved every minute of it! This one has just a little bit of spice towards the end of the book, and it was very well done! If you like emotional romances (that are also fun!), workplace romance, forced proximity, one bed, then highly recommend checking this one out!

sweet and swoony love story

Admittedly, I didn't really know what to expect going into this book. I don't often read single pov books anymore but this one did not disappoint. With everything that Mack has been through, I think it's fair that we get HER story.

I absolutely lovedddd the connection between Mack + Daniel. They were everything from the beginning. Daniel was perfection in all the gorgeous nerdy ways 🥹🤍

The narrator did a FANTASTIC job. Her voice was engaging and great at storytelling. I felt like I was watching it happen in front of me. She did a great job of differentiating between different characters and scenes. Highly recommend listening to the audio!

10/10 Recommend!

This was such a phenomenal book! The characters, the story line and just everything. It felt so relatable to the real life joys and struggles people deal with daily without feeling like a stretch or overly enhanced or undervalued. This is a book I’ll put on my “read again” list for sure.
