Stories We Never Told

De: Sonja Yoerg

Narrado por: Lisa Flanagan, Christopher Lane, Soneela Nankani, Steve West

From the Amazon Charts and Washington Post bestselling author of True Places comes an emotional novel of love, secrets, and obsession.

Psychology professor Jackie Strelitz thinks she’s over Harlan Crispin, her ex-lover and colleague. Why should she care if Harlan springs a new “friend” on her? After all, Jackie has everything she ever wanted: a loving husband and a thriving career. Still, she can’t help but be curious about Harlan’s latest.

Nasira Amari is graceful, smart, and appallingly young. Worse, she’s the newest member of Jackie’s research team. For five years, Harlan enforced rules limiting his relationship with Jackie. With Nasira, he’s breaking every single one. Why her?

Fixated by the couple, Jackie’s curiosity becomes obsession. But she soon learns that nothing is quite what it seems and that to her surprise - and peril - she may not be the only one who can’t let go.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Stories We Never Told is a beautifully told story of love and obsession, a gradual unearthing of long-held secrets that can unravel even the happiest of marriages. Yoerg has a real talent for creating compelling and complex characters who wrestle with real-life situations, leaving the reader wondering who to root for until the very end. Yoerg should be on every reader’s radar.” —Kimberly Belle, New York Times bestselling author of Dear Wife

“It’s a rare psychological thriller that shows both the dark depths our obsessions can lead to and the unlikely breakthroughs that can let the light in. Sonja Yoerg’s Stories We Never Told does just that, deftly introducing a brilliant cast of characters for whom detachment and intimacy can be equally terrifying. A taut, clever, and satisfying read.” —Jessica Strawser, bestselling author of Not That I Could Tell

“Sonja Yoerg expands her literary repertoire into suspense with Stories We Never Told, a tale of obsession, love, secrets, marriage, and the lies we tell ourselves. The prose is lyrical and immersive, and the story builds delicious tension. But the characters are where Yoerg truly shines: they’re all so keenly developed, so realistic, and so surprising with their own crackling takes on relationships, academia, and each other that the story itself starts to feel almost immaterial. Until, of course, it shocks the living hell out of you.” —Kate Moretti, New York Times bestselling author of The Vanishing Year and In Her Bones

Kept My Attention

While not amazing, this audiobook was good. The story and narration kept my attention and I listened
to the very end. Im glad I purchased it and wont need to exchange. It was very enjoyable and the storyline was easy to follow. I recommend this book. A very good weekend listen.

Fantastic read

Great character development. Attention getting. unpredictable ending. Fast paced storyline. I highly recommend this book to anyone who likes a good mystery.

Excellent book

I really enjoyed this book. The characters are so alive, the story full of suspense and the narration brilliant.

ok

So I gotta say that the book really "begins" about half way in, maybe more. I was bored through the first half with Jackie being a weird creep, and couldn't figure out why after all of this time she was getting obsessive with Harlan. Honestly I still don't know. She seemed to have a happy marriage, great job why was she getting all worked up about her ex boyfriend. Makes no sense still to me.

Captivating

I couldn't put it down and loved the different narrators and the story was so intriguing.

Great book

Really enjoyed it. I did feel she should have known sone things ahead of time. But we all miss things when we are too close to the issue.

Interesting Story

Interesting story, loved how the author told the back history of the characters.
I understand that the book was narrated in third person, however Jackie’s name was repeated too many times.
Glad I finished the book.

An intriguing read

Well written drama of modern workaday life and the difficulty people have trusting each other. Foreshadowing was spot on.

American based

Most of these types are British. It’s refreshing to Have one based in an area that I am familiar with

Just OK

I liked the narration but the story was fair. It didn’t grab me. I would not recommend it to a friend.
