About this listen

In the small mountain town of Amorea, it's stretching toward autumn of 1954. The memories of a world at war are fading in the face of a prosperous future. Doors are left unlocked at night, and neighbors are always there to give each other a helping hand.

The people here know certain things as fact:

Amorea is the best little town there is.

The only good commie is a dead commie.

The Women's Club of Amorea runs the town with an immaculately gloved fist.

And bookstore owner Mike Frazier loves that boy down at the diner, Sean Mellgard. Why they haven't gotten their acts together is anybody's guess. It may be the world's longest courtship, but no one can deny the way they look at each other.

Slow and steady wins the race, or so they say.

But something's wrong with Mike. He hears voices in his house late at night. There are shadows crawling along the walls and great clouds of birds overhead that only he can see.

Something's happening in Amorea. And Mike will do whatever he can to keep the man he loves.

I went in blind and got more than I bargained for.
The concept for this book is unique- I don't think I've read any others like this before, so that excited me from the start. I found the writing and storyline drew me in and kept me hooked from beginning to end. I was somewhat saddened by the ending but I understand it.
This book made me emotional, I struggled going between the realities and then to hear the IRL storyline was tragic and heartbreaking. There was a part near the end where I cried- the last time he's talking about the Murmuration, I lost it.
As for the performance Kirt Graves was really impressive, I really loved his narration.

Blow your mind kinda book.
