The Do-Over

De: Georgia Beers

Narrado por: Lori Prince

Fifteen years is a long time. Long enough to forget the past, forge ahead, and create a terrific life. Bella Hunt has done exactly that, complete with a successful career, a gaggle of close friends, and a home she loves. Life is good.

Or it was, until her teenage nightmare and the bane of her high school existence shows up for Bella’s class on conflict resolution.

Easton Evans, in all her pretty, blonde, my-parents-are-surgeons glory, throws Bella into an existential tailspin as her unpleasant memories from her past come screeching back. Easton doesn’t even recognize Bella, and what’s worse, Easton is...different somehow. Softer, kinder. And still unfairly attractive.

None of it computes in Bella’s head. She’s hated Easton for 15 years, done her best to scrub the past away. But now here it is. The past. Sitting in her classroom and waiting for Bella to teach her how to resolve a conflict of the heart.

Touching

Ostensibly this is just another Georgia Beers love story; however underlying this story is a powerful, (sorta) touching look at teen bullying and the effect on everyone involved. Bella was the victim of high school bullying, Easton was, for the most part a bystander, one of those kids who watches one classmate bully another and does nothing. Thus the bullying at best, continues at the same level, and at the worst escalates. It is also a portrait about the shadow that such treatment creates and the way it echoes through the life on those bullied for years, even decades afterwards. This is the Second Georgia Beers audible selection that I've given five stars, in both cases it was due as much to the subject matter as it is to that particular book.

Loved this auto book!

I can honesty say that I have never listened to an auto book that left me so utterly speechless until now. Bullying is such a horrible thing to happen to anyone. This story made me laugh and cry. Thank you Georgia Beers for this heartfelt story. I wish those that bully could learn such a lesson in real life. Thank you Lori Prince for bringing these characters to life, you were wonderful! I highly recommend this book!

One of my favorite authors

Georgia Evers never let me down, I love her books and this one is as good as the others...
I love the somewhat clinical voice of Lori Prince, and the way Ashe narrates which always adds to the books.

One of the best books writen by Georgia Beers

this is one of my favorite books. great story wonderful writing. loved the narrator

Great story

The African American voice was lacking. It stood out to me the most on the reading of this story. Everything else was fine.

Horrible narration

The story itself isn’t bad but my god it took me months to get through it because of the narrator. Especially when she voices a person of color it’s like she pulled every stereotype she thought she knew of a person. Genuinely horrible. However, the story itself was good and once I finally made it through after having to put it away for months, I enjoyed it.

Speechless 😱

Wow! OMG! This book is amazing and so romantic. I wish I could erase my memory of the book, so that I can read it over again😍🤗.

The ending was beautiful, prefect.💯💯💯

loved the story and the narrator.

mein I hope that tera chick fall in a ditch somewhere and die from sewer water... da ish

Too quick of a read

I was sucked into this book by chapter 3 and when I was done, it left me wanting so much more.
