About this listen

Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there. I do not sleep. There is nothing more powerful than a mother's love.

Five years ago Molly Gabriel lost her twenty-year-old son, Joey, to a terrible sailing accident. His empty boat was washed ashore on the rocks, but his body was never found.

Now Molly has returned to the sands of Cornwall, haunted by his disappearance, unable to accept he is gone. Joey was an experienced sailor and died on a calm sea--things just don't add up, and Molly cannot let it go. Desperate for answers, she turns to Joey's best friend, Ben, to go back to what really happened that day...

Intensely emotional and relentlessly suspenseful, I Do Not Sleep is the latest best seller from broadcaster, journalist, and book club champion Judy Finnigan.

First Judy finnegan book I’ve read - found it quite enjoyable and very easy listening

Easy reading

I am not usually into books like this. This book however rings so true. I understand the way the mind can lead us when we are bereaved.

Lovely heartwarming story

I enjoyed the book about a mother's love for her child. Felt there should have been a few light hearted moments.

Sad but compelling

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?

no sorry! I was expecting so much from this book and author, unfortunately neither delivered.
The story line was all over the place and so repetitive I ended up feeling very frustrated with it! I did listen to the end as I wanted to find out what happened to Ben...even that was a let down!!!

Would you be willing to try another book from Judy Finnigan? Why or why not?

Probably not... scarecrow ghost visions, fickle characters and long winded boring descriptions of Cornwall (and I love Cornwall by the way) made for tedious listening.

What didn’t you like about Patience Tomlinson’s performance?

the narrator struggled with the male voices, it felt very put on, almost like listening to a four year old child impersonating her Daddy's voice! when she was in female character she sounded very much like the Lady from 'Keeping up appearances' . Sorry but this is also a negative for me.

Do you think I Do Not Sleep needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

argh no!

Any additional comments?

sorry Judy, I so wanted to like this book :-(

Oh heck, what a waste of a credit!
