message 436: by Megan (new)

Megan (lahairoi) | 7470 comments Just completed my first #11 (black/grey) - Modern Romance by Aziz Ansari. Loved so much about this audiobook! I highly recommend listening as Aziz is the narrator and throws in lovely little asides and rude comments about listening to his book - it was hilarious! It was well thought out and supported by research. I especially appreciated the contrasts between romance in the previous decades and now. Good conclusions. My only slight criticism was a touch of repetitive commentary towards the end. Good length and highly entertaining! Definitely worth listening and reading! 4.5 stars
