Little Lovely Things

De: Maureen Joyce Connolly

Narrado por: Elisabeth Rodgers

A mother's chance decision leads to a twist of fate that is every parent's worst nightmare.

Claire Rawlings, mother of two and medical resident, will not let the troubling signs of an allergic reaction prevent her from making it in for rounds. But when Claire's symptoms overpower her while she's driving into work, her two children in tow, she must pull over.

Moments later, she wakes up on the floor of a gas station bathroom - her car and her precious girls have vanished. The police have no leads, and the weight of guilt presses down on Claire as each hour passes with no trace of her girls. All she has to hold on to are her strained marriage, a potentially unreliable witness who emerges days later, and the desperate but unquenchable belief that her daughters are out there somewhere.

Little Lovely Things is the story of a family shattered by an unthinkable tragedy. Played out in multiple narrative voices, the novel explores how the lives of those affected fatefully intersect and highlights the potential catastrophe of the small decisions we make every day.

Conclusion could have been better

Thought she could have concluded better what happened to the kidnapper, part two I hope

gripping

I was sucked in from the very beginning. I did want more at the end.

real good

don't listen to the bad reviews. There is an annoying voice of a bird but it's over in a few seconds. I really like the story and you will too.

Left hanging at the end!

This book was very sad and emotional throughout. The ending was hopeful for the reunited family but I felt like I was left hanging at the end on many levels. Was that intentional for a sequel?

Dramatic

was a dramatic book. Makes one think about how devestating it would be to your life to have your children taken away from you. And also losing one to death in the process.
