Mind blowing!

Loved this book. Incredibly written and narrated! An absolutely must read (or listen) with great twists

Keeps you engaged !

story line keeps you engaged the entire time. that's not something I come across easily. Also the narrator is brilliant. she really brings the characters to life. I'd highly recommend this book for a series of twists and turns that leaves you guessing until the end.

What a great story

What started out slow became a thriller with twists and turns. I really thought that I figured it out but the last few chapters had me stunned. Definitely worth the money. 😀😀😀

predictable

the narrator was good, the story was lacking and predictable. the ending was awful. I would not recommend this book.

Slow story and the end was a let down

I've really enjoyed other books I've read/listened to by this author, but I felt like this one was a bit slow and the ending was kind of a let down. I think it was worth the listen overall, but definitely not the "leave you on the edge of your seat" type of a story.

I felt like it took a long time to finally figure out what was going on (the story seemed to drag) and then it almost just ended. If you have nothing better to listen to, it's a good enough story, but I don't know if I would use a credit to purchase it again.

Worth the read!

Excellent book! It has a lot of character buildup and plot development. It is written in a way that slowly reveals each secret, so the reader is held in suspense throughout the whole book.

I liked it, but a little cheesy.

Honestly I liked this book and thought it was good, although not my favorite. It definitely kept me interested, but at times it got a little cheesy and unbelievable.

Exiting and unusual

This is not a normal mystery. It a thriller about a woman that has a terrible past. The story is told true present and flashbacks. Booth told chronological. The book is a little slow at the beginning but at the end I couldn’t put it down.

S l o w

I just kept waiting and waiting for this book to get better- it did towards the end. But the end.... ugh.

Leigh Mills - the girl who wants to lose her past

What made the experience of listening to The Girl with No Past the most enjoyable?

The book is really two books; one is Leigh's past and the other is Leigh's present. Each chapter relates to one of those periods; no two consecutive chapters related to the same period.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Yes, the past is only revealed in small parts yet the past in total explains the present. Thus, as the author relates bits and pieces from the past, the reader begins to understand the present.

Have you listened to any of Lisa Coleman’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, but she is perfect for this book

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

Not so much moved but the next to the last chapter was somewhat of a surprise and somewhat mystifying. I don't want to reveal the plot but one wonders how she survived.
