The Heartbreakers

Heartbreak Chronicles Series #1

De: Ali Novak

Narrado por: Arielle DeLisle

Stella will do anything for her sick sister, Cara - even stand in line for an autographed Heartbreakers CD for four hours. She's totally winning best birthday gift this year. At least she met a cute boy with soft brown hair and gorgeous blue eyes while getting her caffeine fix. Too bad she'll never see him again.

Except Stella's life has suddenly turned into a cheesy love song. Because Starbucks Boy is Oliver Perry, the lead singer for the Heartbreakers. And even after she calls his music crap, Oliver still gives Stella his phone number and whispers quotes from her favorite Disney movie in her ear. OMG, what is her life? But how can Stella even think about being with Oliver - dating and laughing and pulling pranks with the band - when her sister could be dying of cancer?

An Awesome Reread

Read this book back in 2015 and I wanted to revisit. still just as cute as I remember it being.

I loved it

loved it ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ 💕 💕 😁 😉 💘

Absolutely Adorable!!!

Its been a long time since i've finished a rom/com YA book and thoroughly enjoyed it from beginning to end. I laughed, cried, and completely connected as well as fell in love with each character. the funny thing is the story isnt exactly original nor mind blowing, but that didnt stop my heart from skipping a beat and swooning left and right. it had its eye roll moments with some of the cheesyness and facepalming one liners but over all it was a charming quick read and the narration from Arielle DeLisle was excellently executed. i truelly felt like she captured Stella's voice.

Great book!

Listened to this book twice and it really is worth the listen! Some parts in the book feel a bit rushed as if the author could draw out a piece of the story but it is a 10/10 book with cheesy/clean romance!

Sweet

At first I didn't think I would finish this but I hate giving up on a book. I'm glad I didn't because it was nice getting to know everyone. I could definitely relate to only being seen as one of a trio and not an individual. That was nice. I like the ups and downs of the relationships in this book. I especially liked the song at the end and how it was Oliver and Stellla's secret. I'm really glad I finished The Heartbreakers. Now I'm excited to listen to the next book.

I love this book

I can't believe how emotional it is and I would LOVE IF A MOVIE WAS MADE IM BEGGING YOU TO MAKE ONE!!!

Audible I'm begging you to contact Ali Novak and tell her this it is so amazing AND PLEASE MAKE A MOVIE IT WPULD BE EVEN MORE AWESOME

Thank You,

Good Fan/Star Romance

This was a fairly clean romance story (except for some heavy make-out sessions). The language wasn’t too bad. The MC met the pop star to get an autograph for her sick fan sister. Then she realized she’d already met the guy. She wasn’t a fan. But situations changed.

I loved the ending. Very satisfying.

amazing

If you could sum up The Heartbreakers in three words, what would they be?

A Sweet Novel

What did you love best about The Heartbreakers?

The Heartbreakers was a novel about coming to age and letting go of the fears that prevented the main character Stella from moving forward. I loved that Stella allowed herself the chance to experience life in a way she didn't allow herself to do because of her family. This book was such a sweet YA romance and I loved that it was something I could easily immerse myself in without a lot of heavy feelings making me depressed while listening.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

The ending was such a sweet moment and one that I was happy to see. I'm very glad it ended the way it did.

Have you listened to any of Arielle DeLisle’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I have not listened to any of Arielle's other performances, but if this book is any indication of her style I would love to listen to more books she has narrated. I loved the performance. It was what made the book even more enjoyable to me (I own the actual book and loved reading it).

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

The book made me laugh and smile at the boys antics. It also made me a bit sad. Thankfully the sad parts were never really dark so there was no depression while listening to this book.

Any additional comments?

Ali Novak is a young author. From the few novels she has written you can tell that her targeted audience is YA. Despite not being a YA myself, I still enjoyed the lightness of this book. It is definitely not an in depth novel, but that's what I liked about it. It was exactly what I needed at this time.

THIS IS MY FAVORITE BOOK OF ALL TIME!!!!!!

I RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO ANYONE WHO LOVES A GOOD ROMANCE!!! Just one flaw on the narrator's part. Cara's name is pronounced like Sarah. Not with a "k" sound. Otherwise the narrator was great!!!
