ROMANTIC COMEDY

Kristen Sieh narrates the story of a contemporary relationship set just before and during the Covid pandemic. Sally Milz is a writer on "The Night Owls," a late-night comedy show. When another average-looking man on the show becomes involved with a gorgeous woman, Sally knows the inverse would never happen, so she's shocked when host Noah Brewster appears interested in her. Sieh captures Sally's snarky tone and sharp wit, showing why she is a success in her career. Sieh also acknowledges the loneliness Sally experiences in her personal life. Noah sounds charming and pleasant, and while Sieh portrays his decency, she also allows his frustration and doubt to show through. Both characters are complex, and Sieh depicts them as flawed human beings who are struggling to connect. K.M.P. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2023]
