Audiobook review
Catch My Breath has been one of my go to books whenever I want that übersweet love story. When I want a feelgood story and read about that one true love. It never fails to bring warmth to my heart and a smile to my face,
I really love this story, it hooks from beginning to end. It's tooth-achingly sweet with really lovable characters. We follow Elliot and Danny, how they go from being everyday teenage boys and how they form the boy band Static with Webb, Tate and Reece and all the complications that follow instant fame, and living in a world where being out isn't an option.
I loved Danny and Elliot together. Their love was wonderful, tangible, sweet and so many other adjectives I can't list them all. Their love story is exactly the kind of read I want when I need that feel-good book. Sure there is some angst and difficult times, but they still can’t overshadow that deep connection they have between them.
Tyler Stevens wasn't my favourite narrator. On the plus side, he did have a wide range of voices for the characters and they were great. But I'm sad to say he missed out a bit on the emotions, they felt a bit flat or off and it took away from the amazing love story being told.
I'm of two minds about this as an audiobook. One the one hand I absolutely love and adore the story, it's übersweet, that intense first love that I just can't get enough of. On the other hand the narration didn't work for me. I'm not sure if that's because I've read and loved this book before and have preconceive notions about how I think it should be, but in the end, it felt lacking and a bit off. So before deciding one way or another make sure you listen to the sample and then decide if this one might be for you. If not, you should totally read print version.
While I still loved and adored the story, the narration took away from it. Catch My Breath is still a story I'll read again, but probably not one I'll listen to.
