I think I would have liked the story a lot better if so many things weren't repeated so often..."brother's best friend", "brother's little sister", "can't be together", "I don't want to be the reason theres a wedge between you and your only family", "we're adults" "I'm ten years older"....I bet the book could have been half the length if those phrases alone didn't repeat so often. Plus for "being adults" they were not acting like it. It seemed like there wasn't much substance to the book, they had their issues with the brother and then there was sex/sex acts, you could listen to the first few chapters then skip to the end and not really miss anything.

So Im probably in the minority with this review since I read some before I started this book but....it was just ok for me. Honestly it could have been half as long if the author didnt repeat phrases and words so much, there would be a sentence then shed repeat it again and just add F*** to it or do the same thing with a word (example "he smirked...he f****** smirked). I get she was trying to ephasize but doing it so often ended up annoying. I love Connor and his narration was spot on there just wasnt much of him for how long the book was, and the gist of the story was cute just poorly executed in my opinion with too many repeats and added in cuss words (Im fine with cussing but this seemed like she threw in cuss words which ended up taking away from the story not adding to it). Gracie and her ignorance and Im all alone or Im gonna be leaving attitude was exhausting. The female narrator isnt my favorite so maybe she added to me not liking Gracie very much, shes very monotone and so many hours of mostly her narrating was hard to take, by the end I was glad it was finally finished.

I liked the story overall and Sebatian did a wonderful job as always! The female narrator was hard to listen to the longer the book went on. Her kid voice and male voice were cringy and she seemed to over act alot which was frustrating. I like this author and liked the book but just wished it had a different female narrator!

I actually liked the story, this is one of my favorite authors/series but Im confused why this is called Rex!? There was so much more of Rachael in this book than Rex, I ended up liking her growth in the end but it was frustrating for such a smart woman that it took so long for her to move on, get help and start dealing with her issues. She didnt treat Rex with the love and respect he deserved, I loved Rex....so patient, understanding and sweet! I love the male narrator hes one of my favorites, just wish there was more chapters he narrated! The female narrator was ok....Im not a fan of her "male" voices and what is with her breathy pauses? She would say a word pause then one more word pause....and kept doing that. I get she was trying to emphasize certain things or make it emotional but not every time she did it was it needed. To me it got old and frustrating, and ended up taking away from the story instead of adding to it. I will listen to Rachaels book but ironically I hope theres a lot more of Rex in that one than Rachael....and I hope the female narrator isnt so over the top with the breathy pauses...heres to hoping!

Amazing story I love this author! I love Troys narration his voice is yummy! I did not like the female narrator it seemed she over acted the part (especially the other female voices of Sailors friends) and as the book went on she was even harder to enjoy. I was also not a fan of how weak Sailor seemed...her sister was a fighter and deserved Sailor to be a better sister to her. I think Sailor shouldve grown a back bone especially towards her parents way before she did. I love strong female main characters and usually this author does a great job with them but in this book I wasnt a fan of Sailor...maybe it was the narrator...maybe the character....hard to tell. Other than that I loved Rafael hes swoon worthy!

Teddy Hamilton was awesome! The male main character was sweet and I liked him. At the beginning of the book I liked the female main character but as the book continued she got soooo annoying, frustrating, extremely needy, selfish and acted immature. I had to fast forward a lot of the book towards the end. There were some laugh out loud funny moments but overall I would skip this book, it was more frustrating than enjoyable.

Jason Clark was awesome as usual! Female narrator was like sandpaper to my ears, she seemed like she was over acting and what was with the whispering!? She would talk normal then whisper then an inbetween....I went from struggling to hearing her to her blowing out my ear drums. I ended up skipping her parts and only listened to Jasons. Story was decent but narrators make or break it and the female one broke it for me.
