Alas, the full cast narration for this audio first exclusive didn't capture as much magic as I was hoping for; the narrator for Robbie specifically felt very ✨studied✨ and less in the moment and charismatic with the narrator for Marigold. Also, the plot device of interviewing other couples // ex-couples on their love stories became a distraction for me for developing the relationship between Robbie and Marigold.

Overall, nothing specifically wrong, just felt for lack of a better word, forced. From the humor to the interaction between the narrators, which is a great sadness for me especially considering they were narrating much of this together in a room (per articles i read).

I did like Robbie's vampire coat.

CW: parent with cancer (in the past, survived); divorce (secondary characters)
