What if your roommate is your soul mate? A joyful, quirky romantic comedy, Beth O'Leary's The Flatshare is a feel-good audiobook about finding love in the most unexpected of ways.

Tiffy and Leon share an apartment. Tiffy and Leon have never met.

After a bad breakup, Tiffy Moore needs a place to live. Fast. And cheap. But the apartments in her budget have her wondering if astonishingly colored mold on the walls counts as art.

Desperation makes her open minded, so she answers an ad for a flatshare. Leon, a night shift worker, will take the apartment during the day, and Tiffy can have it nights and weekends. He’ll only ever be there when she’s at the office. In fact, they’ll never even have to meet.

Tiffy and Leon start writing each other notes – first about what day is garbage day, and politely establishing what leftovers are up for grabs, and the evergreen question of whether the toilet seat should stay up or down. Even though they are opposites, they soon become friends. And then maybe more.

But falling in love with your roommate is probably a terrible idea…especially if you've never met.

Praise for The Flatshare:

'With likable main characters, spot-on dialogue, a fun premise, and plenty of drama, there's a lot to like in this sweet story. A warm, enchanting love story perfect for fans of classic rom-coms.' — Kirkus Reviews

“The Flatshare is a huge, heartwarming triumph.” — Josie Silver, #1 New York Times bestselling author of One Day in December

I loved the narrator for Tiffy but you could sometimes hear mouth noises from the narrator of Leon!! Not great to listen to!

I really did not enjoy this story. I tried hard to get to the end but I just had to quit wasting my time as I didn’t find the book getting any more interesting the further I went. I feel bad for not liking this story but then I didn’t write this mess. I can’t force an attraction.

Charming storyline. A bit of Fairytale romance but sincere and heartwarming. Clever concept. Not riveting or complex but a very cheerful read.
