Henry's End

By: Julie A. Richman

Narrated by: Philip Alces

Dreams. I used to have them before the nightmares started. I dreamed of nice guys, love...normalcy. Things like reading the Sunday paper in bed with my lover.

But who needs dreams when your reality is filled with a string of faceless, dominating men in uniform? Men who pack thick bulges and are only too happy to satisfy your sexual cravings. Me, that's who.

Then he walked through the door and shared with me, a total stranger, his intimate dream of love. Damn him for verbalizing every single detail of the dream I buried long ago. And now I don't know how I'm going to live without that dream - or him.

what a sad story

The story flowed nicely and the narration was done well. Sad times and some good times.

You'll love this

I've listened to this on you tube before then with in an hour or a little sooner it began to display a lot of audio problems loud buzzing cuts in the story thought it was just YouTube but it's here too. at first wasn't that often but as it went on the problems increased.

Poor Henry

This book is three or four stories combined, and while I really enjoyed a couple of them, I come away from the whole feeling like poor Henry has been yanked around and tortured entirely too much for the sake of adding drama and emotion to the book. I’m all about an angsty story. Some of my favorite books have made me bawl and took time to recover from. This one left me feeling my emotions had been toyed with and manipulated. It didn’t feel organic and inevitable that the story would go the ways it did. It was just too much for me.

Also, it has some very triggering scenes and events. I’m of the grit your teeth and get through, or if you don’t like it put it down and walk away generation. I went in blind and was caught by surprise. I don’t hold that against the author or the book. But FYI to sensitive or vulnerable individuals, do your research before diving into this one. Be aware. Protect your mental health.

This book gave me all of the feels! I was not expecting that! Although I knew were at certain point in this book was leading, it still broke my heart and yes I ugly cried. I made it predictably unpredictable! I will definitely read this author again!

Intense

My overall rating was a4.
This book had so much depth that I must say I was disappointed with the flat ending. So many intense feelings and experiences in this book. I appreciate the HEA and it was much deserved and needed.... However, I
was looking for as much passion or emotion I’m the last relationship as the first two.
