A good ending.

Reviewed it on December 22, 2023

All over the series has been fun, interesting and well written. Loved so many things of it. Maybe the last book was the weakest as it did not have the underlying tension on what will happen to Andrew’s personal life in the future. But it was fun! Thank you!

More please

Great continuation of the story. It brought conclusion to Andrew's youth. But it also leaves some issues still needing continuation: grandma, sister, kids, careers, photography just to name a few. I'm looking forward to the possibility of 26, and hoping for it.

Good and interesting visit to the past.

I started reading this series on SOL and was so into the story that I bought the next volume. And the next and so on!

As others have said, a great story with well developed characters. But every book in the series has typos and locations where the POV switches between 1st and 3rd person. So a lot of polishing is needed.

But $74.75 for the set?

Very, very different and a bit disturbing.

Reviewed it on February 1, 2023

Well, unlike most readers, I attended a Grammar School (but single sex) and was a member of the CCF (RAF section) and did my time at Cambridge University (Churchill rather than Jesus College). A final co-incidence is that I studied at the Department of Engineering, Trumpington Street!

A thoroughly enjoyable tale - with lots of “spot on” factual details and described environments. Most realistic about Heriots and Edinburgh (public transport, rain and playing fields) I suspect, less so about the Cambridge I experienced in the 60’s.

His recurring self doubt and indecision got on my nerves more than once.

Congrats on an epic tale!

Well done !

I was totally captivated. Please continue the series. There is just so much more to hear, I find myself so invested in these characters and I am only a reader. I can’t imagine how much time and energy must go into these stories. Rest up my friend, for when you’re ready I will be there eager to continue.

Thank you for sharing!

Great story, needs severe editing.,

A great story but the books are a bit rough around the edges. This requires a severe editing.

It was quite a read

Reviewed it on October 21, 2022

I took me a month or so to read the series. It has been worth it though. I feel a little bit empty with "nothing to read" any more. I mean, these characters become so close to you that you feel you really know them.
Thank you so much for sharing with us, and like other readers, I'm looking forward to the next 25 books...

I thoroughly enjoyed the series. Strongly recommend!

Congratulations to Gruinard for writing such a compelling series. I'd love to read more stories in this universe.

Author request: Can the Living Two Lives books be added to Goodreads? Selfishly, I track the books / pages read in their app.

Great Series

Reviewed it on October 1, 2022

I stormed through this series like a bull in a china shop, and the story just got better with each episode. Is it greedy to ask if there is more in the pipeline for Andrew and company? I would love more, and there's so much more hinted at in this and the earlier books. Please, sir, may I have some more?

Brilliant development and fulfilling story arc. Well done.

Well worth the time and money. Binged my way through all 25 as they were released over a week.
I'm still looking for more. Thank you for these 25. Now may I have some more please?

Needs more.

Reviewed it on January 21, 2024

I really enjoyed this series but it seemed kinda rushed at end. Too much BDSM and photography. I liked the college and military aspects and the modeling where his creativity came out. Also the inner angst with family. It all came to a end without satisfaction. Please continue.

Too much repetition

Reviewed it on February 25, 2023

The premise of the story was excellent and the reason I persevered until this chapter but too often the back story was repeated to pad out the number of words. I felt at the end short changed at spending $2.99 for a few chapters making the end price for reaching this point over sixty dollars.

Too much garnish, not enough entree

Great Story. Books 22-25 wandered a lot. Snippets of story lines that were never fleshed out and great detail about things that didn’t meed to be gone into detail about. Left feeling unsatisfied.

Oh, what could have been!

Reviewed it on March 31, 2024

I truly loved this story... Starting on SOL and continuing here from book 17 onward. Someone below said it perfectly; a great 23.5 books. You go into such great depths throughout this story, even the Dominance and submission in the last two books. But left the ending wrapped up in what seems less than a page. With your writing style, this feels incomplete. Oh, what could have been a terrific ending...

Expecting more

Mostly just a rehash of the previous "books". Only three or four paragraphs of new direction or new paths.

Overall opinion of 25 Books

Reviewed it on June 8, 2023

Very very great 23.5 books.

Unfortunately you went a bit overboard on the BDSM starting in book 24. It seemed to veer away from the tone of the prior books and delve into semi (mostly) BDSM porn.

I would like to see where they are especially after 10 and 20 years. (2 more books?)

Anti Climatic Ending

Up until this 25th book I was very impressed. It seems you got tired of telling a story in this one, and just made 60% of it repetitive B and D sex.

Very disappointing

Reviewed it on September 9, 2023

This book did nothing to move the story forward. If you're into BDSM porn you'll love it. Otherwise don't bother What a sorry end to a good series.
