Editorial reviews

Mishka Shubaly might have found musical expression with his band Freskills, but he found his literary voice with his best-selling, autobiographical Kindle Singles. These mesmerizing episodes chronicle Shubaly's many years of recklessness and substance abuse that preceded his sobriety. Because Shubaly performs his stories himself in his worldly, weather-worn voice, the listener feels an added intimacy with the writer, who wears his heart on one sleeve and humor and humility on the other. Are You Lonesome Tonight? examines the fine line between addiction and love. This true story of infatuation gone bonkers belongs in the annals of audio's most gripping modern romances.

I didn't know what I was getting into when I started listening. I was pleasantly surprised and found it a very fun story. Overall, just fun.

Wow.

So, I think I would have liked this more if it was a true story and someone was kind of willing to bare their soul with it. As it stands, as a work of fiction, it was interesting in a dark and twisted kind of way. It was a nice diversion as I was doing some light housekeeping.

A dark little love story

What made the experience of listening to Are You Lonesome Tonight? the most enjoyable?

I enjoyed Shubaly's metaphors -- they were overblown at times, but nonetheless both fresh and descriptive.

Who was your favorite character and why?

There is no one to like in this story!

Which character – as performed by Mishka Shubaly – was your favorite?

The narrator.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It's a creepy story. It definitely gave me some goose bumps.

Any additional comments?

This is a fast "listen" and worth the time. There is nothing likable about any of these untruthful, shallow, and self-absorbed characters, but nonetheless the writing and the story stay with me. I enjoyed Shubaly's narration, too. My favorite passage was toward the end, when he described videos of cuckoo behavior.

A well done short story

What a crazy story? Wow! I didn't see the ending coming at all. I thought the writing was good and the story was interesting. The narrator did a good job but I have to say there was something missing for me. The story was just a shocker and there was a bit of substance missing. But a good story.

WOW! No Way!
