Love at First Psych

Once again Cara Bastone knocks it out of the park! I have enjoyed several of her short stories which are written for audiobook format. Love at First Psych is her newest Audible Original and I simply loved it.

This is a light, easy-going story with humour, romance and is told by a gaggle of crazy-talented audiobook narrators who bring the story to life. I love how a full cast of narrators are used and how background sounds are included giving the story an audio play feel.

The characters are endearing and believable, the banter and dialogue are spot on and the story is sweet without being gushy and you just know you'll finish it with a smile on your face. 

I cannot wait to see what Cara Bastone has in store for us next.

This Psych 312 assignment just might send me off the deep end. Determining whether love at first sight really exists with Robbie Moravian as my project partner, of all people?

He’s the sappiest man alive, so upbeat I could scream, and clearly rooting for happy endings at every turn. How does he not learn from experience considering our own meet-cute last semester almost got us expelled?

But we both need to pass this course to graduate. So we’re interviewing five random couples about their meet-cutes and relationships and spending all this time together. Which is certainly...educational.

Because it turns out Robbie isn’t just the charming golden boy I thought I knew. There’s some actual depth beneath all those lame dad jokes and the ‘70s-inspired thrift wardrobe (even if he does look ridiculously great in a flared collar). Next thing I know he’s walking me back to my office on the regular and finishing all my sentences and protecting me from freak storms, and...

Wait. Could Robbie be right? Can happy endings really come from unhappy beginnings? Is he about to change my entire world view?

Group projects are the worst.
