About this listen

 The #1 New York Times bestselling author of modern classics such as My Sister’s Keeper and Small Great Things weaves a “richly textured and engaging” (The Boston Globe) tale that explores what happens when a young woman’s past—a past she didn’t even know she had—catches up to her just in time to threaten her future.

How do you recover the past when it was never yours to lose?

Delia Hopkins has led a charmed life. Raised in rural New Hampshire by her beloved father, she now has a young daughter, a handsome fiancé, and her own search-and-rescue bloodhound, which she uses to find missing persons. But as Delia plans her wedding, she is plagued by flashbacks of a life she can’t recall…until a policeman knocks on her door, revealing a secret about herself that irrevocably changes her life.

With Vanishing Acts, Jodi Picoult explores how life might not always turn out the way we imagined; how the people we love and trust can suddenly change before our very eyes; how vanished memories can evolve into threat. Featuring characters that “resonate with authenticity” (People), Vanishing Acts masterfully explores a serious topic with understanding, insight, and compassion.

Can’t give an opinion on the full story as narration was so awful I could not continue. All narrators had saliva mouths and kept swallowing. YUK

Awful narration

Slow to start, but worth the wait!

Why must my review be a minimum of 15 characters?

don't think there are many of J P booksI've not listened to and haven't enjoyed. in fact I have enjoyed each and every one
audio books are expensive so the longer the book the better for me
value for money !

In some ways I liked the multiple narrators and others ways I didn’t.
Found Andrew’s character was not developed enough, narration of him wasn’t that interesting, and the conclusion was fine but as I’d expect. I was hoping for a bit more.
I really did not like the sections that were just lists of things or people.

Bit dull

Another brilliant story from Jodi Picoult: compelling narrative, well developed characters with a tangible emotional undercurrent that provides for a gripping read. The dialogue is excellent and believable and the multiple perspectives gives the off kilter story real depth. Like all of Picoult's books that I have listened to, the moral dimension makes the stories more vivid leaving traces of the nuances with you long after you have finished reading or listening. I really loved this and look forward to my next one. Highly recommended
