Dry Hard

By: Nick Spalding

Narrated by: James Langton, Elizabeth Knowelden, Billie Fulford-Brown

From the bestselling author of Fat Chance and Checking Out comes a hilarious story about giving up…but definitely not giving in.

Kate and Scott’s marriage has always been a lot of fun, with alcohol at the heart of it. After all, what’s more entertaining than a good laugh and a large drink…or six?

But recently, those relaxing drinks have become more crutch than comfort - and the couple have almost forgotten how to talk to each other sober.

Then their teenage daughter Holly uploads a video of their humiliating drunken escapades, which gets picked up by YouTube superstar PinkyPud - and goes horrifyingly viral.

In a last-ditch attempt to prove to the world they’re more than just boozy idiots, Kate and Scott quit alcohol completely. But with Holly’s… er… ‘help’, what begins as a family promise soon escalates into a social media phenomenon: #DryHard!

With the eyes of the Internet upon them, can Kate and Scott stay teetotal - and save their marriage in the process?

Spaulding Never Disappoints!

Again, a very fun, easy listen. Also, perfectly narrated as well. Sit back and enjoy some laughs.

Love Nick Spalding.

I have read all of his books and laughed out loud through each one. Highly recommend!

Mediocre

Don't know why 3 narrators were used. The Scott voice was too casual. Also thought it implausible in parts; knowing drinking would be required, company should have had watered down "entertaining" booze.
Writing was choppy, but had some good Spalding fun at times.
Wouldn't recommend it.

Flipping Funny

Laughing out loud at inappropriate times inducing book. The situations get more insane but remain credible.

Those poor people. Remarkable character development that stays in character during the worst possible clusters. And clusters abound.

Great book. Spend your credit on this one. I'll have this one on replay soon.

Unrealistic and unbelievable

Two drunks and their lives of alternately being drunk and sober. Neither character was someone you would want as a friend. Quite frankly a waste of my time.
