About this listen

You've never heard a love story as twisted as this.

The must-listen thriller of 2018.... Perfect for fans of The Woman in the Window, Anatomy of a Scandal, and TThe Girl Before.

Meet Juliette. She's intelligent, driven, committed - and in love.

Juliette loves Nate.

She will follow him anywhere. She's even become a flight attendant for his airline, so she can keep a closer eye on him.

They are meant to be. The fact that Nate broke up with her six months ago means nothing.

Because Juliette has a plan to win him back.

She is the perfect girlfriend. And she'll make sure no one stops her from getting exactly what she wants.

True love hurts, but Juliette knows it's worth all the pain....

Would you try another book written by Karen Hamilton or narrated by Anna Friel?

By Karen Hamilton, yes.

Read by Anna Friel, probably not.

Any additional comments?

I think this was a good story, but Anna’s constant swallowing was extremely distracting. She left long gaps in between words, for no apparent reason. I was expecting better, but I just couldn’t cope with hearing her frequent swallowing.

Distracted by the Narration.

Already a massive fan of Anna ..
But this book was amazing and captivating.
I literally would listen every time in the car -
Even go the longer way home so I could listen more.
Fantastic twists and turns.
You won’t regret this book.
Anna please please do more narrating.

Anna Friel truly captures you and draws you into this book.

I'm in it for the long haul. Friel reads superbly. Chilling and disturbing workings of an obsessive mind.

Disturbing

This was a great story and Anna narrated it perfectly … I hope it’s true and they are making it into a film 🙌🏻

Couldn’t stop reading !

Story was excellent. Kept my interest all the way through. Could see this being made into a film. BUT detested Anna friels narration sounded like she was eating and swallowing all the way through. If the story had not been so enthralling I would have given up

Brilliant book

What made the experience of listening to The Perfect Girlfriend the most enjoyable?

Revenge - executed so perfectly :)

What other book might you compare The Perfect Girlfriend to, and why?

The Girlfriend - same kind of storyline.

Have you listened to any of Anna Friel’s other performances? How does this one compare?

She's a bit like Marmite, like or loathe. Personally, I got used to the pauses, lip-smacking etc, it went well with the character.

Any additional comments?

Recommended.

Perfect

This is a cracker of a first novel - It's a mixture of psychological thriller and domestic noir with the ultimate bunny boiler of a main character thrown in! However....like so many other reviewers before me I found the narration to be truly awful. The narrator puts long pauses where they shouldn't be (constantly!) and the intonation is all wrong. Add to this constant swallowing and sighing and you end up with an uncomfortable listen. I'd suggest reading this one!

Great story, dreadful narration

Easy listening, entertaining, moves at a cracking pace: yes, it's a bit far-fetched, but I found myself quite willing to suspend disbelief as I was so engaged. I think you'd like this one.

This was fun

I like Anna Friel, but the narration was a bit odd. Not punctuating sentences and odd pauses. It didn’t help the flow.

Narration a bit odd. Good bunny boiler thriller
