The Takedown

De: Lily Chu

Narrado por: Phillipa Soo

Dee Kwan’s secrets for a happy life:

• Always remain positive, no matter the cost
• Realize that every setback is a hidden opportunity
• Accept compliments graciously, especially when given by mega-hot rivals
• Never, ever question whether any of these mantras actually work

For Dee Kwan, every day is the perfect day. No, really. She has a house she loves, a job she adores, and a ridiculously attractive “nemesis” who never seems to mind when she wins their favorite online game. How can life possibly get better? (It can’t, obviously. It can only get much, much worse.)

Soon Dee is forced to share her adorably cozy home with her parents and prickly estranged grandmother. Then she’s tossed into the deep end at work, tasked with cleaning up a scandal for the intimidatingly chic luxury fashion firm Celeste. If that weren’t enough, she discovers her hot nemesis works there, too...and Teddy is nothing like the man she thought she knew.

Before she can cry foul, Teddy comes clean about his double life: He’s the heir to the CEO, and he needs her help to make Celeste a better place—for everyone. But that means taking down the old guard—including his father—intent on standing in their way. Now in the center of a dizzying corporate coup, Dee is forced to decide whether she’s ready to stop watching the world through rose-colored glasses and instead face the truth: about herself, about her feelings for Teddy, and about what she’s willing to do to truly make a difference.

Another great book from Lily Chu! Always enjoy Phillipa Soo’s narrations as well. Finished this book in literally one day!

Love these audiobooks!

I really enjoy Lily Chu’s books and I especially enjoyed how the characters from previous books appear or are mentioned in The Takedown. I also love Phillipa Soo’s performance; she really brings the characters to life with her narration and the cadence is perfect. Can’t wait for their next collaboration!

Enjoyable escape and excellent narration

I easily became immersed in this enjoyable story as it highlighted the beauties of every-day romance, summoning up courage and tackling important issues. It made me smile, a lot, and even made me tear up.

I can see myself reading it again and definitely will recommend.

Interesting

I would say when things can go wrong they go every wrong...except the protagonist was trying so hard to avoid just that throw manifestation. Lol a good book. I'm satisfied with the ending.

Great book

Excellent book. Loved the narration, story line as well as the characters. We’ll read more books by same author.

Peoples fear of speaking out about injustices in the workplace. For fear they may lose their job and being blacklisted.

I loved the book it spoken volumes about how some folks in potions to inspire other's, chose to ignore others because they thought they were better than.

Loved!

Loved the plot! Great narrator! Nice easy listen but kept me interested! I Highly recommended.

Lily Chu is the best!

I couldn’t wait for this to come out and I deleted it. I really love how human her characters seem, from their mannerisms to their thoughts and reactions. Teddy is too good to be true, but that’s went we’re here, right? Great side characters and fun Easter eggs from her previous books. Loved it!

Totally enjoyed!!!

I really enjoy Lily Chu and can’t wait for her next book. I enjoy the characters and the relationships as they move through the story. Phillips su does an outstanding job performing all the characters.
