SPOILER ALERT by Olivia Dade, read by Isabelle Ruther

Isabelle Ruther narrates a charming IRL romance between online friends--one of whom happens to be famous. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Emily Connelly discuss the fun of listening to Olivia Dade’s audiobook about love found through fandom and a viral Twitter post. April Whittier has been active in fandom for years, and no one in her real-life circle knows until an interaction with TV star Marcus Caster-Rupp goes viral and the two end up on a date. Ruther gently teases out Marcus’s reluctance and vulnerability in sharing his true self with April, and she perfectly captures April’s sparkling wit, vivacious personality, and fierce intelligence. A joy to listen to. Published by Harper Audio.
