Publisher's summary

Six years have passed since Jake Fisher watched Natalie, the love of his life, marry another man. Six years of hiding a broken heart by throwing himself into his career as a college professor. Six years of keeping his promise to leave Natalie alone, and six years of tortured dreams of her life with her new husband, Todd.

But six years haven’t come close to extinguishing his feelings, and when Jake comes across Todd’s obituary, he can’t keep himself away from the funeral. There he gets the glimpse of Todd’s wife he’s hoping for...but she is not Natalie. Whoever the mourning widow is, she’s been married to Todd for almost two decades, and with that fact, everything Jake thought he knew about the best time of his life - a time he has never gotten over - is turned completely inside out.

As Jake searches for the truth, his picture-perfect memories of Natalie begin to unravel. Mutual friends of the couple either can’t be found or don’t remember Jake. No one has seen Natalie in years. Jake’s search for the woman who broke his heart, who lied to him, soon puts his very life at risk as it dawns on him that the man he has become may be based on a carefully constructed fiction.

Harlan Coben once again delivers a shocking novel that deftly explores the power of past love and the secrets and lies that such love can hide.

It's ok

Strange read and at times really irritating. In the end it was ok.
Scott Brick is exceptional and the best narrator

The main Character is kind of Annoying

The overall book is good but the main character was kinda dense.
If you can get through that it’s overall an interesting mystery.

Meh

Ok story, THE WORST narration. Every sentence sounds the same. Disappointing purchase and will keep an eye out for this narrator.

Frustrating & Wonderful

One of those books where you try to tell the character to stop, don't do that, OMG! This has to be one of my favorite Coben books. And of course Scott Brick makes it work.

Pretty good

I thought the main character was on the naive side throughout the book. However there was a lot of page turning and action, sometimes almost 007 ish. But it kept my interest until the end.

Yelling at characters

I’ve never read Harlan Coben but I recently watched a couple of his series on tv. Thought I’d give it a try. This book was infuriating as a listener. The character was so lovesick and said the sappiest things. I was rolling my eyes. I didn’t figure out the story, it’s almost too confusing until the very end. And to have the main character do the exact opposite of what everyone told him to do time and time again was beyond frustrating! No more Harlen Coben for me if they are all like this!

This one will stick with you

Such a gripping mystery! I found myself pulled in immediately and it held me in it's grip through all the many twists and turns. Great work-this is one of those books that stays with you long after you finish it.

Not favorite

Seem like main character crying and just crazy all the time . Not one of my favorites

Keep reading

If you are like me the beginning will not make a lot of sense and sound kind of cheap and or stupid. But it’s not, keep reading it all makes sense and will be justified and be just as fantastic as many of his other books!

Good entertainment

Where does Six Years rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

What other book might you compare Six Years to and why?

Gone girl, because the girls were gone :)

What does Scott Brick bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

It is illegal to drive and read.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes
