Acerca de esta escucha
A best-selling novel...well, not really.
Felix Hines is a data entry specialist, and that’s as exciting as it sounds. It’s only for the love of his coworker, Brittney Masterson, that keeps him pressing on throughout each day.
Since childhood, Felix has battled an uncontrollable condition that keeps him from pursuing her, or anyone else, but it doesn’t stop him from being pursued. However, he has found a way around the issue of a real relationship.
When he discovers that his alpha-male boss is trying to win the hand of Brittney, and his pursuer is closer to a stalker, Felix becomes desperate to find a solution to his private problem.
When all of his problems collide, reality becomes stranger than his fantasies.
Brightside is a heartfelt satire about the things we want but can't have.

Calvin and Addelyn Delacroix were lifelong sweethearts who married right after college, destined to live a life of means. After moving into a new home, Calvin slipped into a dark state of mind, and as his secrets began to unravel, he led those closest to him kicking and screaming into the deepest parts of his insanity. Now, he meets with an appraiser to rummage through what’s left of their property. As they revisit each room, Calvin is torn between memories of the wholesome life he shared with his family and the bloodstained ruins of a nightmare he put them through.

You’ve never met the other wives. None of you know each other, and because of this unconventional arrangement, you can see your husband only one day a week. But you love him so much you don’t care. Or at least that’s what you’ve told yourself. But one day, while you’re doing laundry, you find a scrap of paper in his pocket—an appointment reminder for a woman named Hannah, and you just know it’s another of the wives.

Most women would fall to their knees in tears and throw him out of the house - but I just can't bring myself to do it. Instead, I go home and cook a healthy dinner for our children, walk the dog, and unload the dishwasher without complaint. I need this marriage to work to protect a terrible secret of my own....

After barely surviving a brutal attack, Brienne Dougray rarely leaves her house. Suffering from debilitating headaches and memory loss, she can rely only on her compassionate new tenant, Dr. Niall Emberlin, a welcome distraction from the discomfiting bubble that has become her existence. But Brienne’s growing confidence in her new routine is shaken when she stumbles across unsettling evidence that someone else is living as...her. Same name. Same car. Same hair. Same clothes. She’s even friended her family on social media.

Venus Johnston has a great job and a long-term, live-in boyfriend who happens to be a drop-dead gorgeous doctor. She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus. One frustrating day, she trades in the long hair for a dramatically short, natural cut and sends her commitment-balking boyfriend packing. It's a bold declaration of independence and one that has effects she never could have imagined.

What if the life you wanted, and the woman you fell in love with, belonged to someone else? Chris and Claire Canton's marriage is on life support. Downsized during the recession and out of work for a year, Chris copes by retreating to a dark place where no one can reach him, not even Claire. When he's offered a position that will keep him away from home four nights a week, he dismisses Claire's concern that time apart could be the one thing their fragile union can't weather. Their suburban life may look idyllic on the outside, but Claire has never felt so disconnected from Chris, or so lonely.

Liz Murray was born to loving but drug-addicted parents in the Bronx. In school she was taunted for her dirty clothing and lice-infested hair, eventually skipping so many classes that she was put into a girls' home. At age 15, Liz found herself on the streets when her family finally unraveled. She learned to scrape by, foraging for food and riding subways all night to have a warm place to sleep. Then, when Liz's mother died of AIDS, she decided to take control of her own destiny.

Jayne and June Baek are nothing alike. June’s three years older, a classic first-born, know-it-all narc with a problematic finance job and an equally soulless apartment (according to Jayne). Jayne is an emotionally stunted, self-obsessed basket case who lives in squalor, has egregious taste in men, and needs to get to class and stop wasting Mom and Dad’s money (if you ask June). Once thick as thieves, these sisters who moved from Seoul to San Antonio to New York together now don’t want anything to do with each other. That is, until June gets cancer.

Growing up in an affluent suburb of New York City, 16-year-old Nevaeh Levitz never thought much about her biracial roots. When her Black mom and Jewish dad split up, she relocates to her mom's family home in Harlem and is forced to confront her identity for the first time. Nevaeh wants to get to know her extended family, but because she inadvertently passes as white, her cousin thinks she's too privileged, pampered, and selfish to relate to the injustices African Americans face on a daily basis.

Venus Johnston has a great job and a long-term, live-in boyfriend who happens to be a drop-dead gorgeous doctor. She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus. One frustrating day, she trades in the long hair for a dramatically short, natural cut and sends her commitment-balking boyfriend packing. It's a bold declaration of independence and one that has effects she never could have imagined.

Liz Murray was born to loving but drug-addicted parents in the Bronx. In school she was taunted for her dirty clothing and lice-infested hair, eventually skipping so many classes that she was put into a girls' home. At age 15, Liz found herself on the streets when her family finally unraveled. She learned to scrape by, foraging for food and riding subways all night to have a warm place to sleep. Then, when Liz's mother died of AIDS, she decided to take control of her own destiny.

Everything about 15-year-old Cat's new town in rural Michigan is lonely and off-kilter until she meets her neighbor, the manic, beautiful, pill-popping Marlena. Cat, inexperienced and desperate for connection, is quickly lured into Marlena's orbit by little more than an arched eyebrow and a shake of white-blond hair. As the two girls turn the untamed landscape of their desolate small town into a kind of playground, Cat catalogues a litany of firsts - first drink, first cigarette, first kiss - while Marlena's habits harden and calcify.

This was my first book by this author but definitely not my last! I look forward to reading more of his books!

Um...
Ok, this one is a bit of a complicated one to review, so I'll start with the basics. The narration was good, but could have seemingly benefited from some editing, primarily in re-starting sentences at a couple of points, resulting in a bit of a toss of the story to the ear. On the other hand, not having the source text to hand, I cannot tell if this is how the source was written, and it seems well enough possible, though less likely than a bit of editing needed.
As for the source text, wow. This is a strange one to say the least. I suppose if you are up for a quirky tale, not afraid to delve into the kinkier side of expression, you may want to give this a try. For those with a proclivity to urophilia, this seems like a must read.
I requested a free review copy of this audiobook, with expectation of my honest review. Thank you for allowing me to listen to and review the book.

A lot you don’t see coming!
This is a disturbingly funny story that progresses with several unexpected twists and turns. This is definitely different than anything I have read before. It has plenty humor to keep you listening and entertained.
Narration was good and brought the story to life. There were some repeated words throughout but besides that it was a fairly good narration.
This was definitely a unique and unpredictable story full of humor. I totally did not see what was coming and was dumbfounded with how the story wrapped up.
