Publisher's summary

When Alice Love surfaces from a beautiful dream to find she's been injured in a gym, she knows that something is very wrong – she hates exercise. Alice's first concern is her baby – she's pregnant with her first child, and she's desperate to see her husband, Nick, whom she knows will be worried about her. But Alice isn't pregnant. And Nick isn't worried. Alice is the mother of three children and her hostile husband is in the process of divorcing her. Alice has lost ten years of her life.

In the days that follow, small bubbles of the past rise to the surface, and Alice is forced to confront uncomfortable truths. It turns out forgetting might be the most memorable thing that's ever happened to her.

Good, but not as great as her others.

I expect a big exciting twist in liane moriarty books, and this one didn't really have one! The conclusion felt like a bit of an anticlimax. As usual though, a Step above the usual chick lit with likeable characters and an engaging story.

Loved it

I’ve read all Liane Moriarty’s books (except for one) and enjoyed them all so you could say I’m a fan. This might be my favorite. The characters feel real, the dilemmas, the pain and the joy. I was looking forward to listening and the narrator did an amazing job. I 100% recommend it.

Witty profound fun

Made me laugh and cry. Made me rethink about my fixed ideas on people and who Inam and should be. Highly recomendable, light and witty at the same time, unputdownable book!!! Love the reader.

Another gem by Liane Moriarty

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I find Liane Moriarty's work to be incredibly moving and authentic. I would recommend this along with the other two books I've read by Liane: Big Little Lies and The Husband's Secret. If you liked those books, I would say this is well worth the credit.

What does Caroline Lee bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She captures the human experience in a way that's very meaningful to me. The love, the anticipation, the vulnerability, the surprise.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Elizabeth's whole storyline moved me because I am infertile. The moment when Alice said, early on in the book, "She looked like she lost a battle she thought she'd win" really resonated with me. This book meant a lot to me!
