Predictable

This was well narrated with interesting characters. The whole story was quite predictable and it's as if the author couldn't figure out how to end it.

intriguing novel full of surprises

Enjoyed the story line and narration. Lisa Jewel writes novels that hold your interest right from the very beginning

Confusing/hurried

I stopped & started this novel several times which could have been the problem, but I could not keep the multiple names straight for the male protagonist. Additionally towards the end I don’t understand why the author brought all the pieces together in a few chapters while the weaving of the story took up the bulk of beginning & middle.

Really just so good

I don’t like anything ever but I was so drawn into this book, these characters, this story. I’m so pleasantly surprised. I listened to another book by this author and loved it so I felt I could trust her with another credit and I was right. Really wonderful, fully realized characters who you want to stick with. Also this narrator is the absolute best. All characters and accents are spot on (at least to my American ears) and she stays ‘out of the way’ so you can just be absorbed in the story. One of my favorite ones out there, by far. (Because MAN a narrator can ruin a book!) Also—for what its worth—I am so happy someone uses their lower register for female characters instead of constantly making every woman breathy and child-like. For that alone I want to give this 5 stars.

It was just a good story..

This was a good story but nothing terribly exciting. It got a little heart pounding around chapter 50 and then listening as the stories intertwined and unraveled was good but I wasn't overly surprised. A good read to pass the time overall but was looking for a story with more shock value.

I enjoyed this book!

Overall the book was great! A bit slow to start but an enjoyable listen and great storytelling

Pretty sweet

The character development was good and I found to the book to pretty likeable. The narrator did a good job.

Worth the wait

The first 45 chapters are insanely slow, and I became so annoyed with the narrator, I almost quit. However, it was well worth it to hang in there for so long. From chapter 45 to the end, the book really changed its pace, and finally became the exciting book I had hoped for.

I loved the story line!

The story was great! Lots of twists and turns. The voice of the person reading it was not my favorite 😬

Great Story!

It had me in suspense and wondering where we were going the entire story! highly recommend
