Another great novel by VK. Just when I thought that I had it sussed,oh no, yet another delicious twist and turn, this was a really cleverly thought out plot, my 'its the best so far' quote,again !The narrator was an absolute joy to listen to, he really brought all of the characters to life. Fantastic.

Wow VK smashed it again !

This is my 3rd or 4th VK listen, and I have to say although a lot of the time, there seems to be a similar thread running throughout all of her novels, I have to say I didn't envisage the last third of the story, AT ALL!
I thought the build was slow and I almost gave up because there seemed to be a lot of "superfluous froth" but I'm glad I stuck with it because everything is apparent later in the story . Loved it!

Well..... I didn't see THAT coming!

Enjoyed this. Twist and turns and good narration.
This is the third book I have now listened to by this authour and will be looking for another one next!

Good twist

This review pains me to write! The narrator, whilst he does have a soothing voice, his tone is more suited to a David Attenborough film or documentary. It took me quite a few chapters to get used to his voice - and for his voice and tone to settle to the Book.

As for the actual story, it went nowhere for quite some time. There's only so many times I can hear about Jake's crush, how many times he meets with Adam, and the VERY VERY VERY awkward intimate scenes. Whilst the story dragged for 80 or so chapters (I kid you not, there are really more than 80 chapters), all the juicy bits of the book are confined to the last handful of chapters. Even then they had me shouting obscenities in frustration. The ending could have been so very different - I didn't care for the one in the book.

A waste of a credit. Save it for another of her books, preferably The Nurse.
