There aren’t really any spoilers ahead, but you are welcome to jump to the TL DR summary at the bottom of the page if you’d prefer! Overall, it is an intense, dark, highly entertaining, character-driven novel that’ll have you on the edge of your seat, desperate to know what happens next.īelow you will find a more thorough review containing my thoughts about the book. Also, though entertaining, some of the plot twists rely on irrational decisions and the unrealistic plot device of memory loss. While the characters are unique and interesting to read about, they are a little difficult to connect with, leading the resolution to be a little lackluster. Following three seemingly unrelated narratives, the tension builds as the stories slowly begin to overlap. Spoiler-Free Review: “I Found You” is an intriguing and suspenseful novel that will hold your attention all the way to the end. And I’m so glad I did it sucked me in right away and way very hard to “put down” (I guess you can’t really put an audiobook down, is there an equivalent expression?).

I chose “I Found You” by Lisa Jewell as my most recent listen because I listened to another book of hers earlier this year and loved it. because it gives me an excuse to keep listening to my audiobook! My apartment is the cleanest it’s been in months now. I’ve discovered that it’s a great way to make chores more pleasant! Not only that, but it actually motivates me to clean, do laundry, dishes, etc. I realized that I really missed this effortless way to read (especially as I hit a slump in my reading of physical books as well), and so I’ve been trying to find a way to get into listening to books again that works with my new quarantine lifestyle.

However, since starting to work from home in the spring, my consumption of audiobooks has drastically decreased. If you listen to audiobooks, when do you most often listen to them? For me, I typically listen to them in my car during my commute to work.
