Free Audiobook : This Winter, by Alice Oseman

Christmas should be all twinkling lights and cozy vibes, but for the Spring siblings, it’s more like walking a tightrope. In This Winter, Alice Oseman brings back Tori, Charlie, and little Oliver, pulling you into their messy, tender world as they face a holiday that’s anything but merry. Tori’s trying to hold it together, Charlie’s carrying a weight no one can fully see, and the festive cheer feels more like a challenge than a comfort.

Oseman has a way of making you feel every glance and quiet moment, weaving a story that’s raw but never heavy-handed. You’ll meet familiar faces, like Charlie’s boyfriend Nick, who brings a bit of warmth to the chill, but the heart of it all is the siblings navigating family, love, and their own tangled feelings. It’s not about grand drama; it’s about the small, real stuff that hits you right in the chest.

This audiobook wraps you in a story that’s equal parts ache and hope, perfect for anyone who’s ever faced a tough day with the ones they love. Oseman’s world comes alive through voices that feel like they’re speaking just to you, balancing heartbreak with moments that make you want to hug the characters close. This Winter is a quick listen that lingers, leaving you grateful for its honesty.
