"Carrie Hope Fletcher and Kwaku Fortune bring genuine emotion to this London rom-com with their impeccable narration about an unlikely friendship." (AudioFile magazine)
"Boasting Carrie Hope Fletcher's no-nonsense British accent and Kwaku Fortune's mild Irish brogue...the audio version brings this butterfly-inducing romantic read to life." (Paste)
This program includes a bonus interview with the author.
What if your roommate is your soul mate?
A joyful, quirky romantic comedy, Beth O'Leary's The Flatshare is a feel-good audiobook about finding love in the most unexpected of ways.
Tiffy and Leon share an apartment. Tiffy and Leon have never met.
After a bad breakup, Tiffy Moore needs a place to live. Fast. And cheap. But the apartments in her budget have her wondering if astonishingly colored mold on the walls counts as art.
Desperation makes her open minded, so she answers an ad for a flatshare. Leon, a night shift worker, will take the apartment during the day, and Tiffy can have it nights and weekends. He'll only ever be there when she's at the office. In fact, they'll never even have to meet.
Tiffy and Leon start writing each other notes - first about what day is garbage day, and politely establishing what leftovers are up for grabs, and the evergreen question of whether the toilet seat should stay up or down. Even though they are opposites, they soon become friends. And then maybe more.
But falling in love with your roommate is probably a terrible idea...especially if you've never met.
Praise for The Flatshare:
"With likable main characters, spot-on dialogue, a fun premise, and plenty of drama, there's a lot to like in this sweet story. A warm, enchanting love story, perfect for fans of classic rom-coms." (Kirkus Reviews)
"The Flatshare is a huge, heartwarming triumph." (Josie Silver, number one New York Times best-selling author of One Day in December)

“The Flatshare is a huge, heartwarming triumph.” (Josie Silver, number-one NYT best-selling author of One Day in December)

Editor's Pick
Way more than fluff
"When I first heard about Flatshare it was billed as a light and happy beach listen about roommates who fall in love through post-it notes, and I thought "Perfect! I'll take this one on vacation." But wow this was not what I expected. Don’t get me wrong—there's a lot of joy here, but despite the rom-com premise, Beth O'Leary's debut is way more than fluff, and her two leads are both incredibly complex characters, with uniquely developed baggage. Actor and first time narrator Kwaku Fortune (is there a better name?) delivers a fabulous performance of what was doubtless a difficult role: Leon is so much a man of few words that he often simply drops needed articles and pronouns, but Fortune's deft treatment rounds out his awkwardness into something real and relatable. Carrie Hope Fletcher on the other hand brilliantly embodies Tiffy - a character so sparkling and bold that you almost miss the fact that her ex-boyfriend is continuing to gaslight her. So yes, take this one to the beach and revel in its sweetness and the heartwarming love story, but stick around for the depth and intelligence that emerges from the amazing performances." —Emily C., Audible Editor

sweet story, excellent narration

Leon’s parts...yikes. He’s not bad, but his mic picked up all sorts of extra sounds. Lip smacking, big breaths...chewing? I don’t know, but it was definitely distracting.
But the paperback or ebook instead.

This is an Audible Dramatization so there are other things happening within the recording besides a straight read. For example, if someone is supposed to be talking on a phone the character is going to sound as if they are slightly muffled because they are on a phone.
Sweet Meet Cute with a Bit of Seriousness

This book was like a breath of fresh air. Characters that have depth and realism, imperfect like all of us but who are also genuinely likeable. A two-narrator format that actually works, that even makes you look forward to the next chapter so you can get the other person’s perspective on what’s currently happening. Secondary characters who aren’t stereotypes or caricatures, but rather realistic people who feel like they have stories of their own going on behind the scenes. The relationship buildup is so frustratingly gradual, but in a good way, like there’s no rush to get to where all books like this tend to end, so the author wants you to enjoy the journey to get there just as much as the final destination. And absolutely no romanticizing toxic behaviour (just the opposite, in fact) or shock-value traumatic surprises (I hate books that do that).
I didn’t listen to the half-hour interview with the author at the end of the book (I just don’t personally like any sort of meta, book-club-discussion lit-analysis stuff, to be honest, so I turned it off), so I can’t comment on that. Mostly I was annoyed that it wasn’t another epilogue — I would have loved to hear the same day from Leon’s perspective after Tiffy’s version was done — but that’s my only complaint about the audiobook.
Honestly, the amount I enjoyed this book was a huge surprise for me — it was a really wonderful story that was very hard to pause, even when I needed to charge my headphones in order to listen more. Five stars are well-deserved!
