A Work in Progress

A Memoir

By: Connor Franta

Narrated by: Connor Franta

From YouTube star vlogger Connor Franta comes an audiobook that grows out of his massive social media outreach - filled with annotated postcards, notes, texts, tweets, journal entries, emails, and letters that chart his coming of age.

The front of the postcards feature his photos, both of himself and the things that inspire him, with the back answering questions from fans or relating anecdotes about the things that drive and influence him. Listened to from start to finish, the book tells a coherent narrative about Connor's coming of age and becoming an adult and the ups and downs that are a part of that. From bullying to dating to leaving home, this is an inspirational book for fans who are growing up and establishing their individuality. The various modes of communication in the book also reflect changes in Connor's own use of technology over the last several years.

A cross between an essay collection and a coming-of-age memoir, told in brief, the book is divided into sections, each beginning with a short introduction about what's affected Connor growing up. For example, a section on family begins with a short piece on Connor's family and what he's learned from them, so that his fans can get a greater insight into his life and learn something from it.

.....Amazing

Once I started this, I could not stop listening. I finally downloaded it after saying I was going to for weeks. I loved it. It is amazing. I feel like I can relate to the author so much it's not funny. His wisdom at such a young age is amazing and reminds me of me. He put everything I thought into one book. He is amazing and this book is amazing. I'm sure it will help a lot of young and maybe even older people find their way.
