Absolutely delightful in every way. Such a great add on to the Thursday Murder Club books! More please!

Predictable in the extreme. Don’t bother if you enjoy any sort of nuance in your stories. I can’t get the sticky sweet ending off my tongue…

Bittersweet. Unique and original concept. In turns sad, funny, poignant. Loved the narration, loved the story. Highly recommend

Genius. Multiple interweaving to tell yet another story within a story, but none of the stories capturing the truth at their hearts. I wish I could read it again for the first time.

Tries waaayy too hard for the nail biting plot twists and just gets silly. I’ve only read one other book by this author and the formula is already tired. Makes for a frustrating read when there are more red herrings than actual plot points. The narrators were the only thing saving this from being a complete tosser.

A bit outside the normal pattern of Sam Applewhite books, but loads of fun. I definitely recommend it!

Every predictable trope is trotted out in this predictable tale. The rowing is the only saving grace. Apparently this character single-handedly busted through all of the hurdles and glass ceilings in front of Everywoman. Yawn.

Fun story idea ruined by a lackluster narrator. An Audible book lives and dies by its narrator, and this one wasn’t great.

In these strange (stranger?) times, a deliciously funny and irreverent look at ourselves and just how silly life is, after all.

We don’t often get honest stories of those entering their twilight years with all of the small daily details. Stegner is a master of capturing those as backdrop to the larger themes of a life remembered. Gorgeous.
