Summary

Hitting rock bottom is just the beginning....

At 24, Finnegan Hart has already achieved what most people do in a lifetime. He’s a best-selling author who lives in the heart of London, drives his dream sports car and attends the most exclusive parties. But appearances are deceiving.

Once the spotlight fades, Finn is left alone with his overactive mind, alcohol and drugs the only way to quiet the noise.

Until an overdose nearly kills him and drags everyone he loves down with him.

Desperate to escape London’s toxic influence, Finn moves to Ten Mile Bottom - a small town in the outskirts of Cambridge - to try and put his life back together.

The last thing he expects is to fall in love.

Ben Goodwin is everything Finn isn’t - kind, empathetic and drop-dead gorgeous. He’s everything Finn needs.

Afraid to drag Ben into his messy life, Finn tries to resist their attraction. But when Finn finally shows Ben the darkest corners of his soul, will love be enough to make Ben stay?

Fantastic book

Loved the story. You felt you knew the characters all the way through the book.
Please do a sequel. It would be great to see them get married.

A very personal story

I didn’t realise till the end how personal this was but it certainly carried that style from the beginning. The hopelessness of its early chapters don’t make for easy listening but happily it doesn’t stay there. I resisted buying when I read the summary and things but glad I did listen to it

as good as the ebook

The story is always full stars, because if I wouldn't like the story as ebook, I wouldn't listen to the audiobook. I can't listen to an audiobook without knowing the book, that's not possible for me.

The performance from the narrator is also very important for me. I can't listen to a lot, because my English as a non-native-speaker isn't so perfect to follow a whole story over hours, when the narrator speaks too fast or too sloppy. Normally I have to SEE the person, who is talking to me in English. It took me a little bit, to come into the narrator, but at the end, it worked. I only have to take a few breaks between. I'm just not yet finish with the book, I’m over the half, but I listen enough to give a review.

PLEASE READ MY RATING SYSTEM!!!

To my ratings:

5* - very very good
it's like an A+

4* - very good and will be often re-listening
it's like an A

3* - it's more then a one-time-listening.
it's like a B

Personal and open!

When I listen to Ten Mile Bottom it feels like Finn is sitting in my livingroom telling me his story. It is vulnerable, open and very personal.
Christopher does a beatyful work voicing this! ❤️

A well-crafted listen

I own the majority of this author's work, but not this one. Being somewhat hard of hearing, I usually read and listen to books. I was delighted, therefore, to find that the narration by Christopher Weeks is so crisp and clear that I didn't need the ebook in my hand too. I love the contrast in voices between Finn and Ben. In fact, all of the different voices are very good and bring the characters delightfully to life.

The majority of the angst is at the start of the story. Thereafter follows the growth of the relationship between Finn and Ben, and the slow start to healing processes. The secondary characters are all well-crafted and never superfluous. Of course, I particularly loved Aiden and I am sad that his book has not yet been written. Maybe one day?

I found this book to be just as amazing as all the others that I have read by this author and I loved that it is based around personal experiences.

Marvelous

This book was absolutely marvelous. I loved this book. I found Finn’s character to be very relatable. You can’t help but fall in love with Ben. He was super sweet and caring towards Finn. This is a must listen. The narrator Christopher Weeks did such an amazing job. I want to hear so much more from him.

Lovely book

I loved everything about this book, the characters, the setting, the writing, and the narration. Teodora Kostova made Finn likeable from the start, though he could so easily not have been, and Finn and Ben were golden together, I strongly believed in them as a couple. The scondary characters were nuanced and interesting, fitting the story.

I loved Christopher Weeks' narration, his voices for everyone in the book ware spot on and it's easy to listen to his voice. All in all a great listing experience.

Great book.

I really enjoyed Ten Mile Bottom. It was an interesting story and I truly enjoyed the characters. I definitely loved Christopher Weeks narration. I love a book setting to match the accent and I enjoyed listening to Christopher's accent. The narration was well-placed and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the book and would recommend it.
