Two by Two: Booktrack Edition

De: Nicholas Sparks

Narrado por: Ari Fliakos

From a New York Times bestselling author, a single father discovers the true nature of unconditional love after his world his turned upside down.

At 32, Russell Green has it all: a stunning wife, a lovable six year-old daughter, a successful career as an advertising executive, and an expansive home in Charlotte. He is living the dream, and his marriage to the bewitching Vivian is at the center of it. But underneath the shiny surface of this perfect existence, fault lines are beginning to appear . . .

In a matter of months, Russ finds himself without a job or a wife, caring for his young daughter while struggling to adapt to a new reality. Throwing himself into the wilderness of single parenting, Russ embarks on a journey at once terrifying and rewarding—one that will test his abilities and his emotional resources beyond anything he's ever imagined.

When a chance encounter with an old flame tempts him to take a chance on love again, he navigates this new opportunity with trepidation and wonder. With the loyal support of his parents, the wisdom of his older sister, Marge, and the hard-won lessons of fatherhood, Russ will finally come to understand the true nature of unconditional love—that it is a treasure to be bestowed, not earned.

I’m still crying

This book hit me in all my feels. I was hesitant in the beginning. But it for me.

highs and lows

Overall, I am glad I listened to the entire audiobook. I would have missed the best parts of the story if I had quit early ( which I considered many times). The narration was fine, but the repetition of chords in the background was distracting in the least and annoying at its worst. There were times when I could hear a dog barking in the background.It did not fit the storyline at all and I got the impression the narrator was working at home with daily distractions drawing attention away from his reading.
I am currently on a Sparks "audio binge" and would rank this choice in the lower third of my choices.I was disappointed to learn that there will be no more movie adaptations of his books.I have seen all of the movies...some multiple times.

The reader was Fabulous!
I was captivated by way the book came alive with his voice! The story started out a little slow, but didn’t take long to consume my attention! Loved this story and the characters🤩

Lovely, meanspirited, and then caring

One of the best I've read. realistic storyline lovely characters (some) and a storyline that could be my own. I cried several times ... Even while I was listening at the gym!!

Background music is very annoying and distracting though for future books

One of my favorites

The story, the performance and the characters grab you and your heart from the beginning and don't let go. I was excited to get back into my car to listen to this great read. it is my second time reading and now listening. Love Nicholas Sparks

The good and bad

Love the author. I’ve listened to almost all hai books. Great story. Music in background is distracting from the story and really Didn’t enjoy the production.

Emotional roller coaster

I’ve never experienced so many changing emotions with a book. Anger, joy, sadness.. Nicholas Sparks sure knows how to pull at the heart strings and take you on that wild emotional roller coaster.

Another great book. When’s the movie?

This book is one of my favorites. Ups and downs of life. Has it all. Only bummed when the story ends. Keep the hits coming.

Amazing.

The narrator and the background music was amazing. The story is amazing and I got attached so much to the characters in a way I didn’t imagine from anyone audiobook.
