A story unlike any other of Lisa Jewell’s books. Totally different but enjoyed the new direction of the twists and turns it gives. I hope there are more of these to come. A little gem.
The performance of it was excellent no annoying parts at all, superb in fact, can’t fault anything.

Just a wonderful book

I find it sad that so many people have given this book low ratings, saying it isn’t Lisa’s best work, etc. it’s almost like some people can’t listen to books unless they’re full of gory death, deceitful behaviour and narcissistic destruction. Which makes me sad.
This story is a unique tale, and every time I thought something obvious was going to happen, to my utter delight it didn’t. Brilliantly written, fantastically narrated and a feel good ending. What’s not to love?

Loved it. A heart wrenching, tragic yet beautiful tale

Far, far too much of the f word.
Some odd , unrealistic conversations and scenarios.
Got fed up and bored with the veneration of the main character and wanted the whole thing to finish. This was really a disappointing book for me.

Not usual standard
