Half of Me

De: Linda Sanchez

Narrado por: Claire Cunningham

Some questions don’t fade with time—they wait.

Camila Reyes has built a peaceful life as a school counselor, years removed from the chaos of her early beginnings. But a birthday gift from a friend—a DNA test—unearths a secret she never expected: a half-sister.

What begins as cautious messages soon opens a door to a past Camila never knew she was missing. With every new detail, she finds herself unraveling the stories she was told and confronting the silence she’s lived with for decades.

Set against a backdrop of longing, identity, and quiet strength, Half of Me is a deeply personal and fictional journey of discovery, reconnection, and healing. For anyone who’s ever wondered about the missing pages in their story, this novel reminds us: even in the absence of answers, we can still find meaning, and even in imagined lives—we find truth.

Poignant, Beautifully Written, and Emotionally Res

Half of Me is a tender and thought-provoking novel that explores the ache of identity, the courage of self-discovery, and the quiet power of forgiveness. Camila Reyes is a protagonist you won’t soon forget—grounded, introspective, and brave in the face of truths that threaten to upend her hard-won peace.

A heartfelt story

A compelling story about discovering who you are and finding meaning in one’s life. We follow Camila, a school counselor, who discovers that she has a half-sister, forcing her to find out the missing pieces from her life. I think many of us can relate to her, and the author does a good job exploring complex themes, such as those one struggles with identity, family, and meaning. A wonderful story that is worth checking out.

Heartwarming story with an amazing narration

This audiobook is the reason I love to read and listen to fiction: small, warm stories that let me imagine different lives and make my imagination fly. The story of Valeria and Camila is so engaging from the very first moments, and I love how the book is structured, including their letters back and forth. Of course, I won’t spoil the details, but all I can say without giving anything away is that the chapter about who Camila was in the past is so emotional that it made me realize how well I’m standing in life and to be grateful for it.

One thing I have to point out is the narration of this book, it’s wonderful! The narrator did a great job translating the pacing of the book, changing the rhythm, giving the dialogue different tones, and acting in general. It’s amazing. Thank you so much for creating this book; I will never forget it!
