The Good Part

De: Sophie Cousens

Narrado por: Kerry Gilbert

Is living the life you’ve wished for really a dream come true?

Lucy Young is twenty-six and tired. Tired of fetching coffees for senior TV producers, sick of going on disastrous dates, and done with living in a damp flat with roommates who never buy toilet paper. After another disappointing date, Lucy stumbles upon a wishing machine. Pushing a coin into the slot, Lucy closes her eyes and wishes with all her might: Please, let me skip to the good part of my life.

When she wakes the next morning to a handsome man, a ring on her finger, a high-powered job, and two storybook-perfect children, Lucy can’t believe this is real—especially when she looks in the mirror, and staring back is her own fortysomething face. Has she really skipped ahead like she’s always wanted, or has she simply forgotten a huge chunk of her life? As Lucy begins to embrace new relationships and the perks of maturity, she’ll have to ask herself: Can she go back to her previous life, and if so, can she stand to leave the good part behind?

Loved it!

Seems like a story that's been done so many times (Click, 13 going on 30 etc) but.... this was a great version and such a refreshing take on it! highly recommend <3

A Happy, Funny, Romantic Book

A clever spin on a classical story line, with a lot of heart. This narrator is incredible as well.

Good.

Interesting take on time travel. Kept my interest, but not sure I would read/listen again.
Great narration!

Living every moment of one’s life - wisdom gained from time traveling

What a marvelous way to learn to appreciate all the gifts we are given in life - good bad and all the crazy in between.. the author takes the heroine to see the glimpse of her life as it will unfold in the future and offers the impossible choice of holding on to the good part vs living on with a sense of creating your own future.. a masterpiece of love devotion creativity and trusting yourself and living to the fullest! Grateful and inspired - thank you!

Fun if you like the movie 50 first dates

Sweet and fun. Easy listen! Enjoyed it, different than what I normally read. A little language and sex but overall clean
