Summary

Random House presents the audiobook edition of The Truth of Melody Browne, by Lisa Jewell.

Melody Browne can remember nothing before her ninth birthday. Now in her early 30s, Melody lives in the middle of London with her 17-year-old son. She hasn’t seen her parents since she left home at 15, but Melody doesn't mind. She’s better off on her own.

And then fragments of her past start to come back. At first her memories mean nothing to her, but slowly, day by day, she begins to piece together the real story of her childhood.

But with every mystery she solves, another one materialises; with every question she answers, another appears. And Melody begins to wonder if she'll ever know the truth about her past....

Good story a bit marred

I liked the premise of the story and it was read well but I found it very odd that since the author herself has children that some of the story about the 6-7 year old character were very unbelievable.

Beautiful

I have read several books from Lisa Jewell, as her previous novels, this does not disappoint. There is heartache but woven between the pages are beautiful moments. Antonia Beamish does an excellent narrative!

A great read

Not my usual go to but thought I'd give it a try and glad I did, really great book touching in parts the unconditional dotting love for a parent from their child that can't be tainted. It's like the book is writen through the eyes of a child.

Had me in tears

I’ve listened to hundreds of audiobooks, big fan of Lisa , they are always a great listen and I’m often moved, but this one got me, so beautifully written that I really felt for the main character

Unexpectedly enjoyable

I’m obsessed with Lisa Jewell’s books and I found this a little difficult to get into, however after an hour or so I was hooked and it was amazing. I love putting the pieces together when listening to Lisa’s books and I never finish them disappointed

Tearful

I remember having this book many years ago and it's bringing me to tears reading....
The audio version had the same effect and because I only had to listen it didn't matter if my eyes watered
