The Things We Lost

By: Maggie Giles

Narrated by: Angie Kane

Maddie Butler has been haunted for fourteen years. After the suspicious death of a friend when she was twenty-two, she tried to move on, convincing herself there was nothing she could have done. But now in an unfulfilling marriage, she realizes how much the guilt has led to an unhappy life.

When she runs into her ex-boyfriend, the memories come flying back in full force. Burdened with regret and unhappiness, Maddie wonders how her life could have been different.

The next morning, she wakes up twenty-six years old and in a completely different life. Her daughters don’t exist, her husband is nowhere to be found, and her friend is still alive, four years after her funeral. As Maddie navigates this new world, she realizes she is the product of her own unhappiness. But is this new do-over exactly what she needs, even if it means never seeing her daughters again?

I’m sad I spent a credit on this one

It’s not a great story. Like a bad mash up of the movies Sliding Doors and Family Man. The narrator has this fake, breathy way of speaking that makes me batty! I haven’t disliked a story like this until now. Don’t spend your credit.

Waste of time and a credit

Worst book I have listened to. No point to the story. Bad reading and storyline.
