10 Things That Never Happened

Material World, Book 1

De: Alexis Hall

Narrado por: Will Watt

Sam Becker loves—or, okay, likes—his job. Sure, managing a bed-and-bath retailer isn't exactly glamorous, but it's good work, and he gets on well with the band of misfits who keep the store running. He could see himself being content here for the long haul. Too bad, then, that the owner is an infuriating git.

Jonathan Forest should never have hired Sam. It was a sentimental decision, and Jonathan didn't get where he is by following his heart. Determined to set things right, Jonathan orders Sam down to London for a difficult talk…only for a panicking Sam to trip, bump his head, and maybe accidentally imply he doesn't remember anything?

Faking amnesia seemed like a good idea when Sam was afraid he was getting sacked, but now he has to deal with the reality of Jonathan's guilt—as well as the unsettling fact that his surly boss might have a softer side to him. There's an unexpected freedom in getting a second shot at a first impression…but as Sam and Jonathan grow closer, can Sam really bring himself to tell the truth, or will their future be built entirely on one impulsive lie?

Stellar performance by Will Watt

Quirky story and some truly laugh out loud moments, but voice actor Will Watt kills!

Great characters and story

The story did a great job of making you fall in love with all the characters. It was truly a great book. Another winner by Alexis Hall.

Great story. Great narration.

Sigh. I just feel better after a trip inside an Alexis Hall story. This one was lovely. The characters are relatable on so many different levels. The plot is so creative. The unbelievable parts of the story become very believable with every chapter. I laughed. I cried. I didn't want the story to end, but the ending made me really happy. If that wasn't enough then allow me to gush about the wonderful narrator, Will Watt, who does an amazing job of narrating a large cast of characters with distinct voices for each character. So yeah, definitely a must read and a wonderful reread.

laugh out loud FUN

The story was fun and the narrator made had me stifling my laughter on planes, on the couch and alone in my room. What a fun and tender read. I really enjoyed this.

I’m not crying as I write this, you are. Shut up.

This book came into my life just when I needed it to. Amazing all around. Story is beautiful and narration is perfection.
