Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas Editorial Team

As someone who's navigated the complexities of unrequited love, I found Ache to be a raw, relatable journey. Gomez Pugh, Teddy Hamilton, and Emma Wilder deliver exceptional performances, seamlessly switching between characters and capturing the nuances of their emotions. The pacing is near-perfect, allowing the story to unfold organically, with each chapter leaving me eager for more. However, I did find the ending a tad rushed, leaving some threads unresolved. Overall, Ache is a must-listen for anyone who's ever loved from afar, offering a unique, intimate perspective on love, loss, and the complexities of friendship.
