Summary

What if you had a second chance at first love?

Annika Rose likes being alone. She feels lost in social situations - she says the wrong thing or acts the wrong way. And it's not her fault, she just can't read people. So instead she prefers the solitude of her books or playing chess to avoid people!

Other Jonathan, of course. Annika liked being around him, but she hasn't seen him for ten years. Until now, that is. And she's not sure that he'll want to see her again after what happened all those years ago...

Annika Rose likes being alone. Except that now, actually, she's beginning to wonder if she likes being alone that much after all.

The Girl He Used to Know is an uplifting novel full of surprising revelations that keep you listening on. Perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes, Gail Honeyman, Jill Santopolo and Sliding Doors.

GOOD STORY, INTERESTING SUBJECT FOR LEAD CHARACTER

I was surprised how World events were incorporated, and I must admit that had me on the edge of my seat, at first, but then I wasn't sure how I felt about it in the middle of a fictional story.
In the first part of the book I thought there was too much descriptive sex, I'm not a prude but it just seemed unnecessary. Also, Onica's name seemed to be an issue; while in the story she constantly told people that it was "like Monica without the M" the narrator at the start of each chapter said "Anica"!
Overall, the story was good, and I enjoyed it, and the subject of Autism was treated thoughtfully and with insight, or perhaps just good research.

Gripping read!

Really enjoyed the overall book although the actress’ voice got on my nerves sometimes as sounded whiney! The backstory got you invested into the characters and I wasn’t expecting the end. Really good ending!

Lovely story.

Another gem from Tracey Garvis Graves. It’s cute, a love story, and the autism aspect is written with intelligence, sensitivity and humour. The narrator is great too. I’ve already lined up another of Tracey’s books in my Audible library! Can’t wait!
