Description
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.

Not super memorable
I don't know what I was expecting, this was rather dull, not bad just not very surprising either

Narrator was awful
The first narrator wasn't so bad. The second was god awful. I've tried several times to listen to this but it's so bad.

It’s cute but ...
Liked the overall story - but I was left feeling “meh”... maybe I would have liked the story more if I read the book. The voice work was not great- it actually made me not want to listen to this story because you have one character sounding like Eeyore and the other sounding like a middle aged man when they are both in their early 20’s. The voice work really hindered the story and listening experience for me unfortunately.

Offensively bad narration.
If you thought a gay, Jewish, possibly autistic protagonist from New Jersey would treated with any modicum of subtly by the voice actor-you’d be wrong.
It’s a cute story. The terrible accent and voice inflections for the character of Alden are offensive and make it unbearable to listen to. I had to stop and read the rest on my kindle.

Alden's Annoying Accent
OMG the "accent" for Alden is so bad. It's half Nathan Lane half Cawfee Tawk. It's simultaneously offensive and repulsive. Really hard to listen to. Is it supposed to be Brooklyn? Boston? WTF.

Yuck
One of the two narrators has a voice that will put you in a perpetual cringe. He seems to be impersonating a woman trying to sound like a guy but instead produces a fingernail across a chalkboard voice that seems to be on the constant verge of letting loose with a humungous belch. It’s an alien sound — no human male sounds like this — that would not be out of place in a sci-fi B-movie sound effects repertoire but here ruins what is otherwise an OK, even somewhat decent story.

All the light and fluffy cuteness you need
If you're looking for something cute and adorable to pick up this summer, look no further than Conventionally Yours. I enjoyed this book so much!!
I will say, the game play did play a large part in the book, and it mostly all went over my head, but also, I really liked that they actually played the thing they played on the page. So many times I read a "sports" romance, where there's actually no sport on the page. So, like, when do you do the thing you're supposed to be doing all the time? While I understood nothing about the game, I loved that it was included and such a big part of the book.
I am a sucker for a road trip romance and the "only one bed" trope and this one certainly delivers that. In adorable ways. I will say, if you're the kind of person that minds fade-to-black, this is fade to black- so walk in with that knowledge.
I loved watching both Alden and Conrad open up and really start to think about what their future looks like. I loved watching them talk through their struggles and coming to into their own and coming to terms with themselves.
Also, even though they didn't spend a ton of time in Jersey, I do love that their journey begins in a college in New Jersey.

magic the gathering by another name
I personally love the book because I have a lot of similar life experiences like the two leads and I could fall asleep see myself in Bow shoes on several points and the relationship feels real just if you're any kind of nerd if you're gay and you feel like you're alone this is the feel-good book of the Year

loved it!
I wasn't sure about it at first because I am not much for table top games like this, but the story was presented in such a way that I could not only understand, but also enjoy those parts. Great story, highly recommend.

A Sweet, Low Heat Road Trip with a YA Feel
Honestly, it took me several chapters to get into "Conventionally Yours." I'm not a gamer and a lot of the relative "shop talk" didn't really hold my interest (and lost me completely a few times later on), plus I was chomping at the bit for the road trip to get underway - despite the obvious need for some story setup. Once it was wheels up, though, the story kicked into gear for me and it was a fun ride.
What a delightful journey watching Alden and Conrad's relationship evolve from rival gaming frenemies to tolerant travel companions to tentative friends to, ultimately, lovingly committed partners. The low heat approach worked well, too, with lots of kissing but largely off-page sexy times. It was as though we readers were granted full access to Alden and Conrad's inner thoughts, fears and emotions, but their most intimate moments were reserved for just the two of them, which seemed fitting for the story.
Narrators Kirt Graves and Joel Froomkin are such highly capable narrators, and both gave solid performances here. Each has a rather distinct voice, certainly distinctive from one another, and so I think this audio book may have benefited more from a duet narration (still pretty rare, it seems) rather than dual. Still, this was a very enjoyable listen overall.
