Audible Review ~~ The Summer Remains by Seth King

Rating:

Twenty-four-year-old Summer Johnson knows two things. The first is that due to a quickly worsening medical condition, she faces a risky surgery in three months’ time that may very well end in her death. The second is that she would like to fall in love before then.

As spring sinks into her namesake season on the Florida coastline, Summer plays the odds and downloads a new dating app – and after one intriguing message from a beautiful surfer named Cooper Nichols, it becomes clear that the story of what may be her last few months under the sun is about to be completely revised. All she has to do now is write something worth reading.

Tender, honest, devastating and triumphant, The Summer Remains explores a very human battle being waged in a very digital age: the search for a love that will outlast this temporary borrowing of bones. In an era when many feel compelled to share and re-share anything about everything, prepare to feel a love so special, you will want to hug it close and make it yours forever.

Is it possible we can have another 5 star review for The Summer Remains?

YES we can!

From the moment Seth announced that is was available on Audible, I jumped on it! I am a HUGE audible fan. When I am driving to work, walking my dog, cleaning my bathroom or like today, taking my 17-year-old son for a week-long college visit. Yup – I am a glutton for punishment. I listened to the last 4 hours of this book to and from dropping my oldest child off at a college. Having a child old enough to stay at a college for a week in itself would have me as a blubbering mess, but I thought I would add to my misery so I listened to The Summer Remains.

Amy Landon has done our Summer so proud. She shifted seamlessly from Summer, to the sweet southern Shelly, to Autumn to Cooper. She WAS Summer. Her narration was one of the best I have ever listened to. I LOVED the book and was so hoping the narrators would do it justice, and well, Amy has!

Then I heard Zach. This narrator has captured the voice that was in my head. He WAS Cooper. He had my heart a-breaking and the tears a-flowing. Thank goodness my husband was driving because it would not have been safe situation for anyone if I was driving while listening to Cooper/Zach.

I am so excited for Seth King to have found such amazing voices for his amazing characters and again, I can’t wait for more from Seth!
