A Novel

Narrado por: Cassandra Campbell

If I Die Tonight has descriptive copy which is not yet available from the Publisher.

Great storyline

Makes me hurt for all the false information that gets told on social media by kids and adults alike. Very truthful representation of what happens in our society today. Great characters and narration.

Good story but a bit long

It was interesting but overall took too long to get to the ending which ironically felt rush compared to the rest

Single Mom Raises Two Teenage Sons: One Moody & Difficult, The Other Sweet & Careing

The location is in Eastern USA and the audiobook ends with the three driving to California or a yet, unnamed area of the West. High school is where both boys are. The police are concerned about the behavior of the older boy as are the school’s principal and teachers. But the mom has hope for both. The town’s neighbors are nervous about the troubled boy and suspect that he drove a car into a neighbor’s boy killing him. Yet police do not arrest him. The audiobook is long. Because I have listened to many audiobooks that are much better, my rating is 4. Kingsolver’s Deman Copperhead is an example of a prize winner that I listened to.

Beautifully written. Contemporary. Believable!

Exquisitely written, carefully woven details that intersect flawlessly through this story. This artistic mystery captured me from the first sentence-skillfully narrated, which can make or break a novel. As the story unfolded, I knew in my heart who was NOT the killer but I did not know who was until it was revealed. With every paragraph, I could visualize the action & the characters-so realistic. I’ve not read other novels by Alison Gaylin so I don’t know if there’s a “sequel” to this one, but it would be quite interesting. I won’t give away the ending so I’ll just say it was a relief compared to other endings in other books. Not every story has to end in pain.

Slowed down to a crawl

Started out great but slowed down to a crawl about an hour in. A lot of pontificating, speculation and ‘oh dear me’ and not. a lot of action. Oh well.
