About this listen

1990.

Please write and tell me why you should live here.

Toby Dobbs received a big Victorian house with too many bedrooms to count as a wedding present from his father, but his marriage is over within a month. Very alone, and very lonely, Toby posts an advertisement seeking the Unexpectedly Alone to become his roommates. Fifteen years later, the wayward souls he takes in are still living with him, with no intention of leaving.

2004.

Please tell me how I can convince you to move out.

Toby Dobbs has met Leah Pilgrim from across the road, and they're falling in love. But before they can begin a new life together, Toby and Leah must help Toby's house of sweet slackers and lovelorn misfits grow up, solve their problems, and set themselves free. But can their new relationship survive the test?

The narrator was amazing and really gave each character their own personality. The story itself is a little slow, but I’m glad I stayed the course. It is a beautiful story about human beings with all of their flaws, all of their uniqueness and al of their heart.

A slow story, worth sitting through, amazing narration

This story was great, but the best part was definitely Helen Duff’s narration! She uses an array of different accents, and tones of voice, to really bring life to all the different characters. I thoroughly enjoyed listening!

Amazing Narrator

This book was a tad slow to start but that was needed in a way to introduce each character properly. I highly recommend it.
