Quarantine and Chill

By: Kenya Wright

Narrated by: Lacy Laurel, Vikas Adam

News of the coronavirus hits New York City, and LA-native Jade is stuck dog-sitting in her best friend’s Brooklyn apartment. Her bestie, Zora, is on her honeymoon in the Maldives and may now be stuck there, too. The island has canceled all flights. Only God knows when Zora will return and Jade can fly back to LA.

Then Zora’s brother, Kamal, shows up with his bags and proclaims that he’s temporarily moving in, which is odd because he has his own luxury condo in Manhattan. Something’s clearly happened with him and his girlfriend.

As the global pandemic ravages the world, Kamal and Jade become coronavirus roommates in Zora’s one-bedroom apartment. Each day brings unique challenges for the pair while they navigate the new normal. Although they have to deal with bumps in the road, they quickly figure out that as long as they have each other, they can handle anything. Plus, there are many steamy ways to pass the time!

Pretty good

Loved the storyline; packed with drama, some comedy, love, sex, and sadness. Traditional Indian wedding was very descriptive. Lacy Laurel’s voice cracks me up; the narrators were perfect for this book and brought life to the characters. Will add this one to my favorites. Good job Kenya!

Re-read for audio!

I loved this in ebook! Audio was even better but it made me realize how heavy handed the Covid-19 related terms were. Still an amazing read though!

Unfortunately the female narrator isn't the best

The story is enjoyable but the female narration sounds like a bad rendition of Mae West ( an very old actress ). So this may turn you off of the audio but the story is worth reading.. I enjoy this writer style of writing ,she's always thinking outside the box you never receive the same story over and over. Always something new and refreshing..

I wasn’t sure about this story

Once I stared reading it, I couldn’t stop. It .was great and so funny the characters were funny as hell. And I really like how you get a great understanding of the various cultures..

Good story

This story had its ups and downs for me! I found myself fast forwarding some parts because it got boring at times then picked back up and had my attention. Lacy laurel was extremely hard to listen too as she is in other books she definitely had me fast forwarding through her parts often. Something about her accent and voice are extremely annoying. Not one of Kenya’s better books but the fact that it centered around the recent pandemic made for a interesting story. Definitely would pick different narrators for future books.

Terrific

I’ve read or listened to several of this author’s books and they were all very good. However, this one stands out as exceptional!!

Good book, terrible female narrator

This was a very good book. I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and how the author captured current events. The male narrator was awesome. Voice inflictions were on point. However, the female narrator was the worst. It took me several days to listen to this book because I didn’t like the female narrator. Her voice and inflictions were annoying and too forced. Listening to her made me wished I’d read the book.

Excellent story telling 👏 👌 👍

this definitely should be a made for Netflix movie, I would have it on my list of movies to watch with my Girlfriends!

no to Lacy Laurel as narrator

It was a good story but the narrators didn't do it justice.
the writing was good but the narrators failed emotional depth. I can't stand Lacy Laurels tone for female or male characters. The male narrator was ok but Micheal Pauly would have been better.

So cute and Hott, but…

The story was great Vikas Adams was amazing but the female Narrator Lacy turned me off. I was glad most of the sexual scenes were read by Vikas cause I don’t think I could have finished the book any other way.
