[Following is a volunteer review of "All You'll Never Be (Audible Edition)" by E L Neve.]
E. L. Neve's All You'll Never Be weaves a captivating tapestry, seamlessly blending profound philosophical reflections with an enchanting musical component while addressing life’s deepest questions. Ms. Neve strikes a rare balance, acknowledging the existence of free will yet allowing the current of events to guide life’s journey. Authored and narrated by Ms. Neve, the audiobook is an immersive experience, inviting listeners to reflect on life's intricacies. Ms. Neve skillfully guides us through the paradoxes of existence, suggesting that "when all goes wrong, maybe all is going right," offering a comforting perspective on life's puzzling journey.
One of the most captivating aspects of the book is the artful use of metaphors. In the dual role of author and musician, Ms. Neve introduces a layer of authenticity, making the accompanying music an integral part of the storytelling process. The music becomes a guiding force, akin to a gentle current leading through metaphors, adding nuanced emotional resonance that transforms the audiobook into a cherished and meditative escape—a bedtime story for the soul.
The carefully curated musical component, narrated by Ms. Neve herself, introduces a calming and melodic rhythm that enhances the immersive experience. This harmonious blend of metaphor and music transcends the conventional boundaries of audiobooks, creating a transformative journey through the human condition. I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars. It has a profound impact on listeners, leaving them with a lingering sense of wonder and a renewed appreciation for life's beauty.
I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking a thoughtful and immersive experience. Whether drawn to philosophical contemplation or simply in search of a momentary escape, this audiobook delivers on its promise, providing a unique and unforgettable exploration of life's complexities. Ms. Neve's creation is not merely an audiobook—it's a symphony for the soul, a testament to the power of storytelling, and a celebration of the transformative capacity of music woven seamlessly with metaphor.

I was torn between the lulling voice in the Audible version and the whimsical illustrations in the Kindle version (I actually went with the Kindle version). I am an absolute logophile, and good metaphors (as mentioned in your characterization) and similes make me swoon! 
Your choice of words for your review was also music to my ears and persuasive enough for me to get the book. I greatly enjoyed reading your review and look forward to reading more from you! Until next time...
