maybe I was just confused and was fooling myself. I thought God, although loved me, didnt care about me anymore. also just like kory i grew up in a religious house hold and believe in the teachings of god, but I felt I could never tell anyone anything about how I was feeling. but, after reading this, I wish I had come out in high school. just like kory, I too came to the realization I wasnt straight, in high school.
I wish I had read this when I was in high school. This book has given me so much to think about. Never has a book given me so much to think about Yes, it was really emotional for me, I cried and laugh and rewind to listen to specific scenes over and over. I would definitely like to check out other books he narrates.ĭid you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
He puts so much life into each of the characters that I love and hate. Robert Clark's narration is by far my favorite from the audiobooks I listened to on audible, albeit I've only listened to about 7 different narrators so far. By the time I finished listening to the audiobook, I felt a sense that I also came out on the other side of my struggles just as Kory did with his. The past 3 or 4 years of my life had changed me and my outlook on things tremendously, but when listening to the story, I was reminded of a younger, more naive version of myself by Kory while at the same time I was seeing how much I had changed and grown. I was pleased that I remember all the things that happens in the book, but what came as a surprised for me was that it was a completely different experience than before. However, when I saw the author's blog post about the audiobook release, I did not hesitate in clicking the add to cart and buy button and listening to the story felt like falling in love all over again. Then there were a couple years during which some very big events of my life took place and in that time I hadn't been able to revisit Waterways and many other books that I greatly enjoyed. I've read and re-read both the entire book and sections from the story multiple times and it helped me find the strength to believe I can get through the obstacles I was facing and that things get better. I find myself relating to the things that happen to Kory in the story, some of which parallel what was going on in my life at the time. Ever since I first read this story, the characters has provided inspirations for me during difficult times of my life. Waterways has been one of my favorite book from Kyell Gold.
I would definitely recommend this audiobook to my friends because I know they will fall in love with the characters and the story like I did when I first read this book back in 2009. Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
