About this listen

What if you could write a new ending for yourself?

England, 1898. When Evelyn first married the famous novelist William Aubrey, she was dazzled by his brilliance. But their newlywed bliss is brief when William is gripped by writer’s block, and he becomes jealous of Evelyn’s writing talent. When he commits the ultimate betrayal—stealing a draft of her novel and passing it off as his own—Evelyn decides to write her way out of their unhappy marriage.

California, 2006. Abigail always wondered about her father, his identity forever lost when her mother unexpectedly died. Or so Abigail thought, until she stumbled upon his photo and a message that her great-great-grandmother was the author Evelyn Aubrey, leading Abigail on a journey to England in search for answers. There, she learns of Evelyn’s shocking disappearance and how London society believed she was murdered. But from what she uncovers about Evelyn, Abigail believes her brilliant great-great-grandmother had another plot up her sleeve.

Rich in atmosphere and emotion, The Stolen Book of Evelyn Aubrey tells the story of literary secrets, a family curse and the lengths women will go to take charge of their future.

Meh

This book was.. okay. I felt like I was still waiting for some sort of big reveal at the end. It was fine, but no fireworks. It plodded along til it was over, everything wrapped up nicely.

Predictable

I wanted to love this… and, I did enjoy the 1900 chapters. The modern part was where it lost me. I never cared about the great-granddaughter of her solving the “mystery”…
By the title, we know her book is stolen… but, it’s not stolen for awhile. We know, from the “presebt” chapters that she goes “missing”…
Anything that might’ve been interesting was given away with the modern timeline.
I wish the author stuck with the past. The modern part didn’t endear me to the story. But, I did enjoy the historical parts, even though it felt like I was slogging through the last 2 hours, hoping for maybe a surprise.

Exhausted Characters

I hate reading books with characters that are just dreary people. They make bad life choices and are tiresome to read about.

It was okay.

The writing was fine, most of the characters were insufferable. I kept waiting for something redeemable to happen and it just never came. It was a sad read.
