Enjoyable listen

I have recently gotten into Lisa Jewell. This is the 4th book of hers in a row that I’ve listened to. As usual, wonderful characterization and storytelling. I liked that this book had a different tone than the others, demonstrating that Lisa isn’t a one trick pony. My only criticism is that, while the protagonists were well-developed, I just didn’t like them very much. Ralph and Jem had some significant shortcomings as people, and their relationship was quite toxic at times. It made it hard to root for their success. Overall, though, I liked the book. Enjoyable listen.

Meh!

A bit lacking. Characters are well developed but just didn’t hit the right note for me.

Excellent

As always Lisa Jewell creates characters that are so easy to love! Such a great book. I didn’t want it to end!!

I felt this one.

While Jem (it sounds like she's saying Jen sometimes) is maddeningly frustrating with her immature decisions of a 25 year old at 40, she's also very relatable in equal measure. Very entertaining story that keeps you hoping for the best for them and yet waiting for a murder...

Love it! Love it!

Absolutely love Lisa Jewell, and her writing! Such a lovely story that I loved listening to in the quiet with a glass of wine!
