The Reunion by Meghan Quinn | Audiobook Review

05/15/2022

The Reunion by Meghan Quinn

Narrated by Lidia Dornet, Teddy Hamilton, Laurie West, Rock Engle, CJ Bloom, and Stephen Borne

The One Night is a prequel, but The Reunion can stand alone. Family life fiction/Romance.Ā 

Meghan Quinn has always been a top 5 author for me. I’ve never met a Meghan Quinn book I didn’t love. Until now.

I wanted to love The Reunion so much! After listening to The One Night, the prequel, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on The Reunion. As one of three siblings who also planned our parents anniversary parties, I was even more excited to read about these siblings doing the same.

But The Reunion was told in SIX points of view, the three siblings and their love interests. In audio, that’s even harder to keep track of, because it’s not in duet style, so you not only have the six different people narrating their own character, but they also had to be the other person in their chapter. So that is 12 voices!

I liked each individual story. I wish this was told in three novellas, or even better, three full-length novels. But the way it was written, as soon as I got into it, it would end abruptly and hop to the next couple. And stopping in the middle of a chapter (which we all have to do sometimes) made it even more confusing when you pick it back up again.

I also got frustrated with the petty bickering between siblings. It made me not like any of them that much. BUT, The Reunion had a good amount of Meghan Quinn laugh-out-loud moments, they just tended to get lost in everything else.

I wouldn’t quite call The Reunion a romance either. This is more ā€œfamily life fictionā€, and it was missing Meghan’s trademark heat. There were some love scenes, but to me they were overshadowed by all the bickering. There were a lot of relatable family moments as well, I just wish each sibling had a little more page time. I felt like I wasn’t given enough to really connect with any of the characters.

Likes:

  • Meghan’s trademark humor.
  • Lots of banter.
  • I love the premise of the story.
  • I liked each individual story within the whole.
  • I absolutely love both covers.

Dislikes:

  • Too many points of view, especially with audio.
  • Not enough of each individual couple.
  • Too much bickering.
  • As soon as I’d get into it, it would totally change focus to another couple.

The Narration:

SIX narrators and it wasn’t duet-style. So that means that each of the narrators were also narrating other parts during their chapters. That made for at least 12 voices, and at 54 years old, I just don’t have the brain power to follow all that anymore.

The Down & Dirty:

I appreciate what Meghan Quinn tried to do in The Reunion. It’s a hell of an undertaking. But this was basically a three-book-series told in one novel. It had a lot of the humor and heart that I love about Meghan’s writing, but there was just too much going on. The constant switching between couples and points of view really had me struggling to catch up and remember where I was the whole time. I think the best way to enjoy The Reunion, in my opinion, is to read it (not listen) in one sitting. (Or to have a lot more brain cells left in your head than I do.)

Rating: 3 stars, 3 Heat, 3 Narration

I haven’t been able to get What You Do To Me by I haven’t been able to get What You Do To Me by @rochellebweinstein out of my head. Told in 3 timelines, now, the 90’s and the 70’s, it’s about a Rolling Stone reporter’s search for the muse of a hugely popular song. This completely unique story is really sticking with me and it’s one of the ones I’ve been recommending a lot lately.

I liked Maybe Once Maybe Twice. I liked the music, I liked Maybe Once Maybe Twice. I liked the music, the stories, and the characters for the most part, and I loved the camp stuff. But the pacing was off for me and there were a lot of timeline changes that I lost track of a few times. I think this one may have been better reading over audio. This book contains triggers, read the warnings!

I’m in charge of stuffing, sweet potato casserole and carrot soufflĆ©. One of my boys is home for Thanksgiving, the other is playing a show in Louisville and Cleveland this weekend, but at least he will be home for Christmas week!  How do you spend the day before Thanksgiving? I’m so glad I’m not traveling.

I know everyone in the world has posted reviews, b I know everyone in the world has posted reviews, but I just realized I never shared mine here. You can see my more detailed review on the blog. 

Iron Flame felt like a 5-star read when I finished. But if I compare it to Fourth Wing or just sit down and look at my notes I realize that I had a lot of negative notes when I had none in the first book. It suffered from a bit of a sophmore slump, especially in the beginning, then too much happened that didn’t all really advance the story. It was like each chapter or two had a new challenge to deal with —like it’s written for episodic TV (which will be happening on Amazon). I still absolutely loved it but I will definitely need to reread this before the next one because I feel like I missed some stuff and some stuff didn’t make 100% sense to me. There were a lot of new characters who I don’t care about adding to my confusion. I loved Iron Flame, but not as much as Fourth Wing which was a much simpler book about a military college—Iron Flame was about the war. Still, I absolutely can’t wait to see what she does with book 3!

What You Do To Me by @rochellebweinstein is a comp What You Do To Me by @rochellebweinstein is a complex and completely unique story that had me riveted the entire time. I especially loved the story of the young Argentinian singer and the sheltered Jewish girl in the 1970’s and the sluething of the Rolling Stone reporter to find the muse to the famous song. If you enjoy music-based romances, this one will be right up your alley.

Roan, Aspen and Cady may be my favorites of the Lo Roan, Aspen and Cady may be my favorites of the Lost and Found series. I love kids in romance novels and this romance was everything I love. The only thing that held me back from 5 stars was that I guessed the bad guy. After reading so many of her amazing books, they are starting to be a bit similar, but that could be the case with all small-town romantic suspense books. Catherine is one of my very top favorites and I can’t wait for the next in the series. I’m hoping I’m surprised this time! PS: the narration by Maxine Mitchell and Zachary Webber made it even better.

If you loved Kristen Ashley’s Ghosts & Reincarna If you loved Kristen Ashley’s Ghosts & Reincarnation series, you will love Too Good To Be True. It wasn’t my favorite because I’m just not into the old historical estates in England and so much was about the house itself. Part historical and part present-time, I liked the couple, but this just wasn’t really for me compared to all the other KA books I’ve loved.

Mine are done by author and genre. My favorite authors or ones that I have more than 6 books from have their own shelf or shelf space. The rest are done by genre. 95% of my books are signed, and I do not read them! I read the ebook or audiobook.
