Summary

Sheila O'Flanagan's enthralling best seller Things We Never Say is a must-listen for fans of Marian Keyes and Veronica Henry.

The things we never say:

A daughter doesn't say how she feels about the past....

A husband is afraid to say that selling the house his wife loves is the only option....

A woman hasn't said that even though they live thousands of miles apart, this man is always on her mind....

If those things were said, the results could be life-changing. As Abbey - and a whole family she knew nothing of - are about to find out in this warm-hearted, thought-provoking and touching novel.

Stick With It

I didn't think I was going to enjoy this when it first started and was tempted to give up, but persevered with for a bit longer and ended up really enjoying it. This is the first Sheila O'Flanagan story I have listened to and will certainly look for more.
It's a very easy listen.

Enjoyable at times.

I liked many of Sheila O Flanagan s books especially with Aoife McMahon as the narrator...alas the sweety pie American accent became annoying. Story was enjoyable enough.

Excellent!

An extremely good read...or should I say, listen!

A well plotted storyline with strong characters and the usual Irish family tensions!

Feel good read perfect during lockdown

Thoroughly enjoyed this storytelling. Enjoyed meeting the different characters and the journey from
Ireland to USA and Spain. Loved the interaction between the families.

Forgettable

This book had a really slow start, I nearly stopped a few times. What was a quite a good basis for the story was long and drawn out, never really getting going. I kept on listening because I did want to find out the end. The American characters were a bit wishy washy, never developing very much.
