Summary
Something bad has happened to Alison Taylor.
Her Saturday night started normally. Recently separated from her husband, Ali has been persuaded by her friends to go on a date with a new man. She is ready, she is nervous, and she is excited. She is about to take a step into her new future.
By Sunday morning, Ali’s life is unrecognizable. She wakes, and she knows that something is wrong. She is home, she is alone, she is hurt, and she has no memory of what happened to her.
Worse still, when she looks in the mirror, Ali doesn’t recognize the face staring back at her. She can’t recognize her friends and family. And she can’t recognize the person who is trying to destroy her....
From the number one best-selling author of The Sister, The Gift, and The Surrogate, The Date is a gripping pause resister that will keep you awake until the early hours. Perfect for fans of The Girl on the Train and Before I Go to Sleep.

too slow and full of unnecessary fillers
sorry, but I skipped 10 chapters and still picked up the storyline with no issues, didn't miss a thing. Didn't enjoy far too far fetched and unrealistic, after the entire book being slow, the ending was rushed.

Brilliant Storyline
I really enjoyed the book, I found it a bit scary even though it was just a story, really well written.
You had no idea about the characters and who did what and to whom.
Definitely going to read more books by this fabulous author.
If you enjoy Crime Books then this is one for you 😃

An okay read, nothing to shout about.
Frustrating in places, too much mystery over one event. Had to finish so as not to waste the chapters I had read..

UM-so very preposterous, Sci-Fi is more plausible!
This is an odd book. It is well written and the plot is even good .. if it was sci-fi as one has to suspend so much disbelief to get on board. It is a shame really and I was teetering on returning this book ... and yet I did enjoy a lot of it. The creepy suspense, the twists and turns but all built on a completely ridiculous and unbelievable premise or series of premises. To suddenly not be able to identify people is one giant leap to take - but then incredible circumstance after incredible happenstance is just too much really to take on board without major brain resistance as just soooo hard to get on board for all that happens. Did I enjoy it .... ummmm yes reluctantly, good narration, great brooding tension - but really ... faceblindness plus all the rest ... UNBELIEVABLE and not in a good way. Much like the lovely dog who despite not having a breed came from a breeder - if nothing else this book could at least have had the important message DON'T BREED OR BUY WHILE SHELTER DOGS DIE. But much like everything else in the book it just seemed to rather miss the point. It had a lot going for it and in bits and pieces it did entertain ... I am grudgingly not going to return this book because I did enjoy it to a point ...but it did beggar belief to the point of incredulity - there are much better books out there - there are much better plots also which this author could employ her considerable talents to tell - let's hope she finds a less contived and bonkers story to tell next time.

Tense deep thriller
The writing is exquisite, the narration devine, making this such an immersive thriller you just don't want to put down. Not for the faint hearted!!

My first audible book and what a fantastic ride!
having just finished this book I must say this was absolutely riveting. I'm a on/off writer myself and this is inspiring me to write more.

Slow Burner
I thought the narrator's were very good but the overall story was a little lacking. It's very slow to progress and I thought more bread crumbs probably would have made it more entertaining. I am glad I stuck with it but I almost didn't. For me it wasn't the epic twist that I love in thrillers but at the same time it works. Reasonable listen but nothing to shout loudly about. That being said I'm not a writer and you're not going to please everyone so definitely give it a chance and I learnt something new from it. Prosopagnosia.

Excellent
Brilliantly written. Unravels itself at different points throughout the novel so you’re not quite sure what’s going on and who’s to blame. Really enjoyed it.

Fantastic concept that really had me guessing
Brilliantly written and a great performance by the reader. It did a fantastic job of keeping the listener feeling as confused and apprehensive as the main character. Obviously a lot of research went into this, could barely stop listening!
