Review: The Thing I Didn't Know I Didn't Know

The Thing I Didn't Know I Didn't Know

The Thing I Didn't Know I Didn't Know by Brent Hartinger and Josh Hurley
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Russel Middlebrook is twenty-three years old, gay, and living in trendy Seattle, but life isn't keeping up with the hype. Most of his friends have a direction in life—either ruthlessly pursuing their careers or passionately embracing their own aimlessness. But Russel is stuck in place. All he knows is that crappy jobs, horrible dates, and pointless hook-ups just aren't cutting it anymore. What's the secret? What does everyone else know that he doesn't?

Enter Kevin, Russel's perfect high school boyfriend. Could rekindling an old flame be the thing Russel needs to get his life back on track? Or maybe the answer lies in a new friend, an eccentric screenwriter named Vernie Rose, who seems plenty wise. Or what the hell? Maybe Russel will find some answers by joining his best friend Gunnar's crazy search for the legendary Bigfoot!

Book 1 of 3.


This audiobook is not a romance. Kevin is a shallow character with only 4 short scenes. The stories about Russel's life are enjoyable and all side characters are well-rounded.
The narration is good.
