About this listen

An edgy, sexy USA Today best seller about falling for the one person you can't have.

Maise O'Malley just turned 18, but she's felt like a grown-up her entire life. The summer before senior year, she has plans: Get into a great film school, convince her mom to go into rehab, and absolutely do not, under any circumstances, screw up her own future.

But life has a way of throwing her plans into free-fall.

When Maise meets Evan at a carnival one night, their chemistry is immediate, intense, and short-lived. Which is exactly how she likes it: no strings. But afterward, she can't get Evan out of her head. He’s taught her that a hookup can be something more. It can be an unexpected connection with someone who truly understands her. Someone who sees beyond her bravado to the scared but strong girl inside.

That someone turns out to be her new film class teacher, Mr. Evan Wilke.

Maise and Evan resolve to keep their hands off each other, but the attraction is too much to bear. Together, they're real and genuine; apart, they’re just actors playing their parts for everyone else. And their masks are slipping. People start to notice. Rumors fly. When the truth comes to light in a shocking way, they may learn they were just playing parts for each other, too.

Smart, sexy, and provocative, Unteachable is about what happens when a love story goes off-script.

Just listened to a second time.

Leah Raeder has a beautiful way with words. The author nailed the descriptions of the natural world (rain, snow, evening, leaves turning in autumn). The story held my interest until the end.
Some may find the subject of a teacher student relationship disturbing, however I did not. The main character had experienced more in her young life than many do in a life time. Age is just a number and has little to do with maturity.

Nothing good nor bad.

The story line was predictable and nothing special. Author does have a way with words.

Not for me

I didn't enjoy anything about this. It wasn't swoony, funny or enjoyable. The whole tone of the story was really quite depressing and the narration was awkward and flat.
