About this listen
He was a man who didn’t deserve a second chance... but he needed one. Emily and her husband, Sandy Portman, seemed to live a gracious if busy life in an old-world, Upper West Side apartment in the famous Dakota building. But one night on the way to meet Emily, Sandy dies in a tragic accident. The funeral isn't even over before Emily learns she is on the verge of being evicted from their apartment. But worse than the possibility of losing her home, Emily is stunned when she discovers that her marriage was made up of lies.
Suddenly, Emily is forced on a journey to find out who her husband really was... all the while feeling that somehow he isn't really gone. And what if he isn't?
Angry, hurt, and sometimes betrayed by loving memories of the man she lost, Emily finds comfort in a scruffy dog named Einstein. But is Einstein's seemingly odd determination that she save herself enough to make Emily confront her own past? Can he help her find a future - even after she meets a new man?

Story
Nora Stephens' life is books—she’s read them all—and she is not that type of heroine. Not the plucky one, not the laidback dream girl, and especially not the sweetheart. In fact, the only people Nora is a heroine for are her clients, for whom she lands enormous deals as a cutthroat literary agent, and her beloved little sister Libby. Which is why she agrees to go to Sunshine Falls, North Carolina, for the month of August when Libby begs her for a sisters’ trip away.

Brett Bohlinger has forgotten all about the list of life goals she’d written as a naïve teenager. In fact, at 34, Brett seems to have it all—a plum job at her family’s multimillion-dollar company and a spacious loft with her irresistibly handsome boyfriend. But when her beloved mother, Elizabeth, passes away, Brett’s world is turned upside down. Rather than simply naming her daughter the new CEO of Bohlinger Cosmetics, Elizabeth’s will comes with one big stipulation: Brett must fulfill the list of childhood dreams she made so long ago.

Fun summer read
I enjoyed this quirky little book...I found it to be "It's a Wonderful Life" meets "The Art of Racing in the Rain." The narrators are fantastic.

Smart and entertaining- so fun!
What did you like best about this story?
A great insight into dysfunctional relationships in a fun way.
What does Dan John Miller and Cassandra Campbell bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Two voices, two points of view of the same experiences that sometimes have no relationship to each other.
Any additional comments?
This was just a fun book to listen to. The narration was excellent, good solid story with an interesting twist. You may question your relationship with your own pet.

Quirky plot, in-depth writing
I like this novel for its quirky plot and in-depth character analysis. Humor balances sentimentality. As entertaining as it is challenging.

Weak Female
Where does Emily and Einstein rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
The Middle
What did you like best about this story?
The switches between characters points of view.
Would you listen to another book narrated by Dan John Miller and Cassandra Campbell ?
Yes, although sometimes Cassandra got too whispery.
Any additional comments?
It would have been nice if Emily, who is supposed to be a strong female, wasn't projected for the entire book as a weak-spined female who sounds like she is whining and whispering all the time.

Fabulous
Linda Francis Lee has written another great book. Emily & Einstein is different from her other books, but the author's voice and subtle humor are still evident. Throughout the book it is difficult to determine if you ever really like Einstein, the dog (due to a twist in fate, all is not what it seems), but in the end he does the honorable thing for Emily, his devoted owner. Lee takes us through the emotions in a moment in time for Emily. Anyone who has been through a terrible break up or death of a loved one will recognize themselves in this book as you slosh through the ups and downs of trying to regain balance. Lee does an excellent job in character development not only of Emily, but also of Einstein and Emily's sister, Jordan. Some of it was a little far fetched, but it didn't matter because Lee gave us pieces of our human condition, which is always captivating in a book. It is not wholly a happy ending, but it's real. The performance of the narrators was excellent, as was the switching back and forth of the point of view (Emily and then Einstein, etc.). While I think I still like the Devil in the Junior League better, this was well worth the time and money invested and I'm glad I read it.

OK story, bad editing and frustrating antagonist
Is there anything you would change about this book?
The performance was decent, but there were several times when the reader didn't like the way she delivered the line and read it again. Clearly there was no editing done, or not enough and it really threw me off the story. *Attempting to not leak spoilers* The antagonist was so frustrating, I really hoped he wouldn't find redemption.

Loved this book
It is the story of a man/husband who dies and lives in the body of a dog (Einstein). It is sweet and adorable but interesting. It shows you also a bit of the publishing world.

Wouldn't label as romance but a good story
This was a good story but it wasn't a romance. It was a story of loss and betrayal and learning to live again
