Captivating

I loved how this was such a love story! Hannah and Joshua are the cutest! I felt like I was there in Maine smelling the salty air and tasting the peppermint ice cream. This book was very well thought out and flowed nicely. I hope we see more work from Jon Shannon. Also, I need to know what perfume Hannah wears!

Familiar for Native Mainers

Great listen. Only three hours. Listened in one day while driving. Original plot type. I like his writing style and hope he writes more.

Great, fun read

Really enjoyed the story. Excellent narration as well. Story is quick, tons of Maine easter eggs, and an enjoyable premise. really liked it.

A love letter ❤️

First of all… I was thinking at first this was a story about another apocalypse… and yay - I was wrong! What stood out to me the most was Max/Joshua’s love for Hannah. And I found myself rooting for them to meet again! But also - this is the author’s love letter to Maine. An insiders guide to the little things that make Maine great. You can tell the author loves his life - and everything and everyone that’s in it - and it’s very heartwarming to read.

Fresh and original idea, relly nicely done

I picked this one for my wife and I to listen to on a drive to the airport in New Mexico. it was the perfect legnth to listen to in one go. I was expecting the book to be a good listen to kill some time. I wasn't expecting to enjoy it so much! What a great little story! Entertaining, heart warming, funny, clever plot, great naration.

I know you're reading this Jon. Please keep writing. You've got at least one fan who is waiting to read more.

Cheers from Red River, New Mexico.

Interest unfolding story

I enjoyed listening to the unfolding of this story. Very good first novel from this author.

story could of had more to the plot.

I would of went with a narrator that voice wasn't relatively monotone. if you looking for a book to listen while going to bed this is a decent listen. The plot line could have been developed more and could have been a good story. I would of had either a female narrator or a male narrator that could do better at bring Hannah's parts more to life.
