Publisher's Summary

"Narrators James Fouhey and Briggon Snow give stellar performances in this quiet YA romance.... Both narrators authentically capture the ups and downs of teen romance and keep listeners engaged." (AudioFile Magazine)

Lauren Shippen's The Infinite Noise is a stunning, original debut based on her wildly popular and award-winning podcast The Bright Sessions.

Caleb Michaels is a 16-year-old champion running back. Other than that his life is pretty normal. But when Caleb starts experiencing mood swings that are out of the ordinary for even a teenager, his life moves beyond "typical".

Caleb is an Atypical, an individual with enhanced abilities. Which sounds pretty cool except Caleb's ability is extreme empathy - he feels the emotions of everyone around him. Being an empath in high school would be hard enough, but Caleb's life becomes even more complicated when he keeps getting pulled into the emotional orbit of one of his classmates, Adam. Adam's feelings are big and all-consuming, but they fit together with Caleb's feelings in a way that he can't quite understand.

Caleb's therapist, Dr. Bright, encourages Caleb to explore this connection by befriending Adam. As he and Adam grow closer, Caleb learns more about his ability, himself, his therapist - who seems to know a lot more than she lets on - and just how dangerous being an Atypical can be.

"What if the X-Men, instead of becoming superheroes, decided to spend some time in therapy?" (Vox on The Bright Sessions)

All the feels!

I'm a huge TBS, Lauren Shippen, and Briggon Snow fan, so of course I loved this. I really enjoyed to know the "back story" of what Caleb tells Dr Bright in the therapy sessions. I listened to TBS again (for the X time!) after hearing the book, and it made me smile a lot to know what Caleb was talking about more precisely!
Of course as a fan, I couldn't be objective about Adam's voice... I think James Fouley is probably great, but I missed Alex Gallner so much! Obviously I can't know what is behind that decision. Luckily I can listen to the College Tapes now!
I will be listening to the other books about Damian and Rose.
Thank you for your great work!!!!!!
