The book itself is awesome! Anybody who knows me know I pretty much just audiobooks as supplements for when I can't sit down and read. But the narrator on this one Will M.Watt is AMAZING! His inflections, voices, and overall voice acting is just *chef's kiss.*

I've very much enjoyed past Alexis Hall books but this one was just okay for me. I was a bit disappointment as I never really saw any spark with the characters, I thought that while the premise was a good one Jonathan and Sam were just awful to each other that I couldn't relate to them ever becoming a couple.

This book is pure chaotic gay energy wrapped in a rom-com package. 10 Things That Never Happened delivers on humor like no other, with the lead character serving sass and the supporting cast dripping in sarcasm and irony. If you’re here for the laughs, you’re in for a treat.
That said, compared to Boyfriend Material and Husband Material, this one stumbles a bit. The plot struggles to find a rhythm, and the relationship between the leads? Let’s just say it’s giving toxic situationship. Some chapters feel totally out of left field—but who cares when the jokes still land?
Oh, and the cherry on top? A fabulous Mariah Carey reference hidden in there for the gays and lambily among us. Overall, it’s messy, it’s camp, and it’s fun—a solid 4/5 + one extra star for satisfying this lamb

This was surprisingly good, because the last few Hall books I've read have been disappointing. BUT this book is A CHRISTMAS BOOK!!! And there was nothing indicating that which was extremely frustrating, because it wasn't the vibe I wanted but I was already invested.
Ignore the silliness of "fake amnesia" and you will enjoy this book a lot more.
