About this listen
After being dumped by his long-term boyfriend for being overweight, Henry Beckett decides to make some drastic changes. In a vain attempt at getting his boyfriend back, Henry does the most absurdly frightening thing he can think of.
He joins a gym.
Reed Henske is a personal trainer who isn't sure he'll ever be ready to date again. He's sick of guys who are only interested in the perfect body image, never seeing him for who he really is.
As Reed tortures Henry with things like diet and exercise, Henry enamors Reed with recipes and laughter. As the friendship lines start to blur, Henry is convinced there's no way Thor-like Reed could ever be interested in a guy like him.
Reed just has to convince Henry that life isn't about reaching your ideal bodyweight. It's about finding your perfect counterweight.
Contains mature themes.

Malachi Keogh finds himself in a job he neither wanted nor asked for when his father, boss of Sydney’s postal service, sends him to the end of the business line, a.k.a. the Dead Letter Office. Malachi expects it to be tedious and boring, but instead discovers a warehouse with a quirky bunch of misfit co-workers, including a stoic and nerdy boss, Julian Pollard. Where Julian is calm and ordered, Malachi is chaos personified, but despite their outward differences, there’s an immediate chemistry between them that sends Malachi’s head - and heart - into a spin.

The job at Sunday Orchard was supposed to be temporary. A chance to gain some work experience, to have some fun. I had not expected to be welcomed into a family of gorgeous and weirdly efficient lumberjack-types, or to find purpose in the tiny Vermont town whose claim to fame seemed to be apple-based products and copious amounts of charm. And I most definitely hadn’t expected to fall for Knox Sunday, my grumpy, burly, fifteen-years-older, reluctant roommate, with his infuriating lectures, his hot-as-fire body, his superior attitude - I’ve never been one to put down roots.

Is it really wrong to want to murder your boss? Dylan has worked for Gabe for two years. Two long years of sarcastic comments. Two long years of insults, and having to redo the coffee pot four times in the mornings to meet his exacting standards. Not surprisingly he has devoted a lot of time to increasingly inventive ways to murder Gabe. From stabbing him with a cake fork, to garrotting him with his expensive tie, Dylan has thought of everything. However, a chance encounter opens his eyes to the attraction that has always lain between them, concealed by the layers of antipathy.

Harrison Phillip Fletcher III isn't supposed to be here. Not in Burlington, Vermont, not running Vino & Veritas, a quaint inclusive bookstore and wine bar, and definitely not still alive, at 42. Also not supposed to be here? An unexpected delivery of chickens. Finn Barnes knows chickens. The burly organic farmer knows all about rare breed poultry, but dealing with a hot older bookseller is an entirely different matter. City-slicker types like Harrison never end up staying in Vermont for the long-term. They should steer clear of each other. But the flare of attraction is mutual.

Funny, charming, and very honest. LOVE!!
This is a wonderful, laugh-out-loud hilarious book. An MM love story that will charm and delight, and also deals with body image issues in an honest and realistic manner. The lead, Henry, is wonderfully funny...I laughed constantly, and I mean belly laughs. I loved him from the first sentence, and fell harder and deeper as the story progressed. The love interest is a hottie with hidden depths, and I loved him, too. The best friend is also funny, compassionate, and wise. If you want a laugh, a little heartbreak, and more than a little honesty about body image issues....here's your book!!! Loved it, loved it, loved it!!

Henry, of course. Joel Leslie's portrayal of Henry was spot on. He made me laugh so hard. #PrayforHenry
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I could have listened in one sitting, but I would have got nothing done because I was so enchanted by Joel's performance.

#PrayforHenry
This is one of my favorite audiobooks and my go-to listen when I need a pick-me-up. Henry is hilarious and I love Joel Leslie's voice! He is an amazing narrator and The Weight of It All is one of my favorite NR Walker books. Poor Henry joins a gym after his ex-boyfriend of 8 years leaves him. He meets his new personal trainer, Reed, who is hot, attractive, and built like a fridge. Henry calls him the Kelvinator and from that point on, Reed whips Henry into shape from meal planning, cutting out fatty foods (carbs and cheesecake), and working out more. Henry and Reed strike up a friendship and exchange recipes and laughter. As their friendship takes on more intense feelings and attraction between moth men, Henry is convinced that Reed would never be attracted to an overweight guy like him. Reed works his magic and convinces Henry that life isn't about finding your ideal weight and shape. It's about finding the perfect counterweight and that's what Reed is. He balances Henry's life out and makes it so much better. I absolute loved this audiobook and Henry and Reed are one of my favorite couples from NR Walker's world :)

Just Lovely!!!
Read this years ago and loved it. Just listened to the audio, narrated by Joel Leslie and it was exceptional! What a absolutely wonderful story of learning to love yourself while you fall in love with that someone special that loves you for the person you are on the inside! It was funny, sweet, heartwarming, touching and just so very enjoyable. Joel Leslie just brings Reed and Henry to life and brought this fabulous book by NR Walker to the next level. Enjoyed every bit of it!

heartwarming story
I laughed and cried and laughed and cried so many times throughout the book..
I was hesitant to start this book, because I wrestled with body image issues for years.. but when I reached halfway mark, I regret that I didn’t read this a long time ago..
as usual, Joel Leslie performance is impeccable..

Yes, yes, yes!
You can never go wrong with a super duo like N.R. Walker and Joel Leslie. Honestly, this book is supportive, sensitive and inspires change and new outlooks on life. I adore Henry and Reed and their blossoming relationship. N.R. Walker has a brilliant way of making her characters fall sweetly in love with each other, despite their flaws, histories and current struggles. Kudos for not making the ex boyfriend the "villian" of the story, like so many romance books do. No, this beautiful story is about fighting one's own demons and how they can affect the people around you, closest to you and to your heart. Five stars, hands down. Amazing read through by Joel Leslie. He really gives the characters life and voice and I don't know where I'd be in my reading journey without him. Definitely give this story a read. Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
