About this listen
Dear Lucy Silchester,
You have an appointment for Monday 27th July 2011.
Yours sincerely,
Life.
Lucy Silchester has received an appointment card. Actually, she's been invited along a few times to this appointment, but she keeps brushing the gold-embossed envelope under the shag pile carpet. She's taken her eye off the ball and has busied herself with work (a job she doesn't love), helping out friends, fixing her car, feeding her cat, seeing her family, and devoting her time to their life dramas.
But Lucy is about to find out that this is one appointment that she can't miss. And she can't escape it, either. Her life is about to catch up with her in the most surreal of ways....

Story
Scandal has derailed Journalist Kitty Logan's career, a setback that is soon compounded by an even more devastating loss. Constance, the woman who taught Kitty everything she knew, is dying. At her mentor's bedside, Kitty asks her - what is the one story she always wanted to write? The answer lies in a single sheet of paper buried in Constance's office - a list of 100 names - with no notes or explanation. But before Kitty can talk to her friend, it is too late.

Lina Meisel, a retired librarian in Florida, is reading the newspaper one morning when she freezes. Her eyes lock on a photograph of a book she hasn’t seen in 65 years - a book she recognizes as The Book of Lost Names. The accompanying article discusses the looting of libraries by the Nazis across Europe during World War II - an experience Lina remembers well - and the search to reunite people with the texts stolen from them so long ago. The book in the photograph is one of the most fascinating cases.

The prospect of spending Christmas with her perfect sister Sofia, in Sofia’s perfect house with her perfect children and her perfectly ordered yuppie life, does not appeal.

So after a recent breakup and dating app debacle, she decides to put love on hold and escapes to a remote writers' retreat in coastal Italy. At the retreat, she's not allowed to use her real name or reveal any personal information.

Story
In the early hours of a summer morning, a young woman steps into the path of an oncoming bus. A tragic accident? Or suicide? At the center of this puzzle is Adrian Wolfe, a successful architect and grief-stricken widower, who, a year after his third wife's death, begins to investigate the cause. As Adrian looks back on their brief but seemingly happy marriage, disturbing secrets begin to surface. The divorces from his two previous wives had been amicable, or so it seemed; his children, all five of them, were resilient as ever, or so he thought.

Venus Johnston has a great job and a long-term, live-in boyfriend who happens to be a drop-dead gorgeous doctor. She also has a weekly beauty-parlor date to keep her long, nappy hair slick and straight. But the tedious hours and harsh chemicals in the salon have long grated on Venus. One frustrating day, she trades in the long hair for a dramatically short, natural cut and sends her commitment-balking boyfriend packing. It's a bold declaration of independence and one that has effects she never could have imagined.

Absolute stunner
I've listened to this one three times and it's still one of my faves. The story is redemptive, different, charming and still very relatable. Lucy, the protagonist, is living a boring lifeless day-to-day until her literal Life, an actual person, orders an audit of her life to fix it. Both the main characters are so weirdly lovable and remain interesting. The reason this book is so good is that it sneakily gets you to examine your existence and wonder if your "Life" were to contact you, would it be happy? Would it want to change things about yourself? The narrator is also fantastic, except for how she pronounces the word "awkward" (ooork-werd?!)
Either way, this book is a goddamn delight and you WILL love it.

The Time of My Life might just change your life.
This book came into my life at the perfect moment. Though it is far from being a self help book, I found it so thought provoking that it's really put MY LIFE and my relationship to it into a whole new perspective.
Not much has been good in Lucy's life for the past 3 years. A shocking emotional blow leaves her devastated and unable to cope. To try to get through it, she tells one lie. Which leads to another. And another and another until her entire life us basically one giant lie.
Thanks, Life shows up. Lucy's world has to be turned upside down to ever get it put right again.
The Time of My Life is everything I love in a book. It has heart and depth and humor and romance, plenty of fun and a few tears. Cecelia Ahearn has woven a tale full of vibrant characters in a compelling story of love lost and redemption.
Amy Creighton is once again the perfect reader and she makes Lucy and all those in her life come alive.
Fantastic read. Highly, highly recommend.

Loved this story
I thoroughly enjoyed the premise of this book, to read something you know is pure fiction but makes you laugh and cry and even think about your own life and wish it could happen to you. I also loved the narrators accent, I saw some people complain about how she said awkward, but that's her cute little Irish accent, if we were there, they'd think we Said it funny too!
anyway if you want a guilty pleasure, read this book, it might seem silly to some, but I sure wish my life could follow me around for a while!!

Fantastic
This story was hilarious, and the main character Lucy reminded me a little of myself. What a different concept for a story line as well. It gets you to think. I love the chemistry of the characters in the book,and the wit is hilarious. The only qualm was on occasion it was difficult to tell who was speaking what dialogue since the narrator didn't distinguish enough the characters voices. But I loved the voice, tone and inflection she had while reading. I would listen to more books she narrated. Very glad to have listened listened to this book!
