A review by evarano
Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert

3.0

I listened to this as an Audiobook! This started as 5 ⭐️ for me but as it went on it was just okay. I don’t think the narrator was the right choice, she sounded quite old and although her switching of accents was good, it just didn’t seem to fit Chloe’s voice. The spicy scenes had a level of cringe because of that. I thought the writing was very funny, which was unexpected but I really enjoyed that! I love a list in a story, but in this one I feel like it took a back seat. I also loved the representation in the story. I feel like Chloe and Red weren’t “enemies” for long enough, when they got over that, it felt very insta love and got a bit boring. The “problem” at the end just seemed so minor, a slight miscommunication and I couldn’t grasp the blow up. Red’s words at this moment were bizarre and so awkward. I also found it a bit too much spicy thoughts, and they were awkward and cringey to listen to, I didn’t love all the word choices used. I also thought that it didn’t fully make sense that when there was an intimate scene, Chloe felt absolutely no paid. Red’s character to me just didn’t fit with the artist vibe at all. So overall, it was okay!
