You and Me

By: Nicola Rayner

Length: 10 hrs and 53 mins

Publisher's Summary

The perfect gripping, twisty suspense for fans of Netflix’s You and Lisa Jewell’s Watching You.

This is not a love story....

Watching sunrises together should have been romantic. But you were always inside with your wife, and I sat in your garden, in the shadows. I thought you’d never know how I felt about you. Until one night, I witnessed a terrible crime. I wanted it to bring us closer together. But now the secrets are tumbling out. And they could tear everything apart....

A breath-taking suspense full of twists and turns - if you think you know how this ends, think again....

Critic Reviews

"I was blown away. An outstanding psychological suspense, beautifully written, brilliantly plotted and impossible to [pause]. Loved every word!" (Emma Curtis, author of The Night You Left)

"A fantastic story, with clever story-telling, fabulous characters and a jaw-dropping plot. One of my top [books] of the year." (Rona Halsall, author of One Mistake)

"Nicola Rayner writes with such sensitivity and elegance." (Clare Boyd, author of Little Liar)

So good!

A few reviews stated that the beginning was slow, but I was hooked from the beginning. I listened to the whole thing in one day! Definitely worth the credit. Now to go and see if Nicola Rayner has written anything else!

Annoying Start

The beginning of this book was so unnecessarily slow and dragging. I had to forward through many of the chapters just to keep from abandoning the story altogether. Thankfully the ending was unexpected, and redeemed the book as a whole.

conflicted

Last 6 chapters are the drum roll of surprises to a dramatic end. A real shame that until then the book just drags along unnecessarily and I didn't have any warm feelings or care about he the main character Fran. I wanted to slap her for being a pitiful stalker.

slow start

the beginning was slow and misunderstood I almost shut the book off but I am so glad I didn't because as it when I understood the beginning and the ending was awesome

✍🏻👏Compelling and complex thriller!👏✍🏻

Another exceptional British mystery by new author to me, Nicola Rayner, “You and Me” is an intriguing, unusual and mesmerizing tale of two sisters, along with their group of so-called “friends” throughout the years and the events they all shared. It grabbed my attention and never let go. A favorite narrator of mine, the brilliant Kristin Atherton, brings each character to vivid life with her vocal talents. Her precise tones are perfect for each and every character. I do have another Atherton-narrated book waiting in my Audible library. I am hoping for more with this outstanding duo, Rayner and Atherton. Please, I beg of you! I paid for this, since it was under $10. Well worth a credit as well. Kudos to all for making this available on Audible. Highly recommended with 🍒 🍒 🍒 on top. Epic, I say. EPIC, EPIC, EPIC!!!

A pleasant attention gripper

This type of book is my favorite genre… they tend to all be alike after a few. You and Me keeps the twisting and turning till the very end. EXCELLENT!

Definitely kept me intrigued

I love when I find an audiobook that I can’t stop listening to, and this was one! My theory changed multiple times. It’s him! No, it’s her! Only to find that I finally guessed correctly about 60 chapters in.

The narrator did an excellent job.

Loved it!

Very good book. The further in to the book the better it gets. Will be looking for other books by this author.

Good book but….

Ok so the storyline itself was good and the narrator was awesome! My only issue was how obsessed with this guy she was it was both annoying and sickening but it shows what happens when you’re so far in you can’t see anything else. Obsession is a real b word lol

Didn't see the ending coming

You know those books where you're unceremoniously drifting along -- kind of smugly thinking you have it all figured out and then... bam! All your theories unravel. Well this is one of those listens. And yet another brilliant narration by Kristin Atherton.

Slow start...gets interesting around the 4hr Mark.

The story in the beginning was a little slow and very over descriptive, not a bad thing just not what I usually like listening to. However toward the end of the book I got hooked on the twists and turns. Stick it out that’s all I’d say!

Narration was brilliant!

absolutely gripping with such a powerful twist

i could not stop listening to this gripping, dark, intriguing and unexpected novel. just wow.

good mystery

Good storyline and ending, but honestly it really does seem as long as the 10.53 hrs sometimes, especially in the middle.

fabulous

Couldnt get enough of this book - so many twists and turns. Absolutely loved it and didnt want it to end.

Really good!

I really enjoyed this story! Definitely worth a listen, I would recommend yes. Will be checking out mire books by this author.

Just OK

The story and twist is thin. The plot is a bit unrealistic. The main character is unlikeable. Very good naration.
