Where does Never Say Goodbye rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

A good story weaved around two families which brought up lots of emotional issues. At times it felt a little slow, but gently the story evolves and it makes you ponder how you would deal with the situations facing them.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Never Say Goodbye?

The wedding in Belle's house was such a happy occasion, beautifully written about bringing all of the key people together in a celebration.

What does Julia Franklin bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

Listening to the book made you feel like a freind was telling you their own situation and the characters are very much alive.
