Unabridged Audiobook
Another of Lisa Jewel’s non- thriller fiction works, written in her typical style of deep character development and story with twists. The author is really good at pinning down the awkwardness of life versus its small triumphant moments.
So much fun!
Totally engaging from the start to the finish. The characters had a lot of depth to them. The narrator did an excellent job of making each character’s voice sound unique when reading dialogue. She also used a lot of voice inflection throughout, which makes to story much more interesting.
I really liked this book,. I have been stuck for the past few books on thrillers and crime, and I thought this book was another of Lisa Jewell's crazy thrillers, but it was not. But it turned out good, because sometimes I love a good chick lit book, and this one was a great story. I really liked the characters. The narrator was fantastic. No, it wasn't the best book I ever read kind of book, but it was great and I think it will be a story I remember.
Exquisite. Wonderfully observed characters. Real life humour, touching and absorbing. I would say sheer perfection, had it not been for a brief interlude early on which was didactic, feminist psychology. Imogen Church is simply the most accomplished narrator of them all. I love listening to her expression, emphasis, timing. When an exquisite novel meets the perfect narrator, there is a rare experience. It left me bereft to have ended. Eagerly awaiting the next Lisa Jewell.
The story was alright. A little slow, and I felt more directed to a 20-30 something audience. It ended sort of abrupt and it was kind of predictable.
Better the 2nd time around.
I think I found my new favorite narrator
