Before We Were Strangers

By: Renée Carlino

Narrated by: Kevin T. Collins, Samantha Summers

To the Green-Eyed Lovebird:

We met 15 years ago, almost to the day, when I moved my stuff into the NYU dorm room next to yours at Senior House.

You called us fast friends. I like to think it was more.

We lived on nothing but the excitement of finding ourselves through music (you were obsessed with Jeff Buckley), photography (I couldn’t stop taking pictures of you), hanging out in Washington Square Park, and all the weird things we did to make money. I learned more about myself that year than any other.

Yet, somehow, it all fell apart. We lost touch the summer after graduation when I went to South America to work for National Geographic. When I came back, you were gone. A part of me still wonders if I pushed you too hard after the wedding....

A sappy romance novel….and I LOVED it!!

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. I loved the story even though it was a little too saccharine but I didn’t care. I loved the characters and cared about what happened to them. The narration was excellent. Nothing deep just a story of love, loss, sadness and reconciliation. Light and enjoyable listening!

Loved this book!!

LOVE LOVE LOVED THIS STORY 😩. If love like this exists in real life I want it 😆

Heartbreakingly beautiful

This story is perfect. There is just enough tension in the story without it seeming too dramatic and overdone. A beautiful story of life pulling and pushing you in different directions.
Worth the read.

Voices

The story was so adorable, and I really enjoyed it! However, I didn’t quite get the vibe from the male character’s voice. It didn’t really match his personality at all. But once the female narrator started reading for him, I could totally tell he was supposed to be handsome and not super nerdy or hideous.

Love story

Sweet love story, this isn’t what I normally listen to but worth it. I can see the betrayal at the end but didn’t see it coming the way it did.
