How I Lost You

A Novel

De: Jenny Blackhurst

Narrado por: Jennifer Ness

A woman without a memory struggles to discover the truth about her past and her identity in this cerebral and dark thriller reminiscent of works by best-selling authors S. J. Watson and Ruth Ware.

I have no memory of what happened, but I was told I killed my son. And you believe what your loved ones, your doctor, and the police tell you, don't you?

My name is Emma Cartwright. Three years ago I was Susan Webster, and I murdered my 12-week-old son, Dylan. I was sent to Oakdale Psychiatric Institute for my crime, and four weeks ago I was released early on parole with a new identity and address and a chance to rebuild my tattered life.

This morning I received an envelope addressed to Susan Webster. Inside it was a photograph of a toddler called Dylan. Now I am questioning everything I believe because if I have no memory of the event, how can I truly believe he's dead?

If there was the smallest chance your son was alive, what would you do to get him back?

Great narration

While I loved the narration, I was not that enthralled with the story. It wasn’t believable because it was just too convoluted. But the writing is very good. IF I could believe the premise, then I’d say that the author left no loose ends. I just couldn’t believe the premise.

page turner

this is the second book that I've listened to by Jenny blackhurst and it is just as phenomenal as the first. definitely a page Turner and twist and turn throughout the story to the point where I was second-guessing what I thought was going on.

Best of Jenny Blackhurst!

I’ve listened to several of Jenny Blackhurst’s books and this is the best so far although I enjoy all of her books. Definitely recommend this one!

loved it@

The reading was remarkable, believable change in voices-
It was confusing when the chapters turned to the boys in College, once they blended together the plot really took a turn!

Oh the twists and turns!

I absolutely LOVE this author! She has awesome characters and I can’t figure out the story line until she gives it to me!

Kept me guessing!

I could not put it down. The story was so captivating. I can normally figure out where a plot is going but this one kept me on my toes. Loved it!

Great story - fabulous ending

This story is told so well. Lots of likable characters. And this book's grande reveal, who all the bad guys are and what they did, is very surprising - as in kind of shocking. In the end everything you've been wondering about gets tied up nice and neat and the epilogue is very satisfying. Jenny Blackhurst is a fantastic storyteller!
Also the narration is very good.

Confusing Narrative

Could not grasp what was going on the between the two time narratives. Very confusing

Good book

The story was good, but I almost did not finish because of the narrator. She had so much spit in her mouth and kept smacking when she started a sentence.

crazy and confused

so much going on and still not sure I understand it all....definitely not the ending I expected...no HEA book for sure. Narration was generally good except for the constant saliva swallowing and tongue smacking...I feel like that may be a British thing or something but seriously need to get that checked
