Publisher's Summary
Charming, charismatic, and effortlessly popular, Conrad Stewart seems to have it all...but in reality, he's scrambling to keep his life from tumbling out of control.
Brilliant, guarded, and endlessly driven, Alden Roth may as well be the poster boy for perfection...but even he can't help but feel a little broken inside.
When these mortal enemies are stuck together on a cross-country road trip to the biggest fan convention of their lives, their infamous rivalry takes a backseat as an unexpected connection is forged. Yet each has a reason why they have to win the upcoming Odyssey gaming tournament, and neither is willing to let emotion get in the way - even if it means giving up their one chance at something truly magical.

Great characters, great romance!
Frenemies, Conrad and Alden are part of an adept vlogger group who fanatically play a fantasy card game called Odyssey. When they take a road trip to Vegas to compete in a gaming tournament, they must rely on their car (not good) and each other (better) to fulfil their dreams of winning. I guess I thought this would be a fun nerdy road trip, but it was squarely in hurt / comfort territory. Both main characters nurse life wounds and these are fully fleshed out: while popular, Conrad is estranged from his family for being gay, has little money, and no prospects; while bright, Alden is socially awkward, rule-bound, and not neurotypical. I wasn’t quite convinced he was on the autism spectrum, he seemed very socially aware and adept, but that was my only gripe. I liked the characters a lot, I was drawn into the game play matches despite never having played a game like this, and I desperately wanted them to succeed at life, love, and the tournament. All in all, a great story! 🎧 Kirt Graves and Joel Froomkin are two of the best narrators around and they did a stellar job - we are not worthy!

Conventionally Yours
Started off a bit uncertain. Once I got to know the characters, it had me right to the end. Nice book.

Alden & Conrad = so sweet!
Conventionally Yours was really quite sweet. The 2 main characters Alden & Conrad are both guilty of assuming they know the other and making judgements on those assumptions, when they really don't know each other at all. Conrad appears more confident of the 2 but really he is hiding his troubles and worrying about where his future is headed.
Spending time together as they travel to a Convention to compete in a gaming tournament is really quite the eye opener for them both, and their attraction to each other grows quickly. Alden is so endearing, he really grew on me across the storyline as his personality starts to shine more. He is an over thinker and gets anxious very easily, but he was so sweet and supportive of Conrad.
I enjoyed the performance of both narrators, Kirt Graves and Joel Froomkin made for a very easy listen.

Never Wanted this Road-trip to end
Two loveable characters who start out with poor impressions of each other get stuck together on a road trip where things get stupidly sweet. Loved it.

nice book
love the storyline. overall nice. However, I struggled with the narrators only one of them was good. The other narrators voices didn't fit for me, they almost made me give up on such a great story.

Cute
This book made my (not so) inner nerd smile.
Two frenemies embark on an adorable roadtrip to a card game convention. Considering the book only takes place over a few days it is surprisingly believable. well paced and a lil sexy.
A negative for me was the narration. I felt the narration didn't fit the characters.
