I adore everything about this delightful, hilarious and incredibly sweet tale of unconditional love, believing in yourself, and discovering your own self-worth.
“The Weight of It All” is told entirely from Henry’s POV, and what a view because he is an absolute riot! (He and best friend Anika both.) Seriously, laugh out loud funny. Henry and Reed make such a loving, playful and supportive couple, and seeing their relationship unfold so naturally throughout Henry’s fitness journey made it all the sweeter. (I also highly recommended reading N.R. Walker’s dual POV short story followup, “A Very Henry Christmas,” for a bit more of these two!)
Narrator Joel Leslie delivered another fabulous performance here. He gave all of the characters, male and female, very distinct voices and his Australian accent(s) was on-point.
