Publisher's summary
A new mother chases the secrets her partner left behind after his sudden disappearance in this pulse-pounding domestic thriller from the author of The Perfect Escape.
Janie needs a break: her baby won’t sleep, she’s struggling with motherhood, and a secret from her past threatens to tear her new family apart. So when her partner, Max, offers to do their baby’s feedings that night so she can finally get some sleep, she jumps at the chance. But when Janie wakes up at three a.m., her daughter is screaming alone in her bassinet … Max has vanished.
Alone with a newborn and desperate for answers, Janie searches for Max, but the more she learns about the man she loves, the more she wonders how well she knew him at all. When a woman is murdered and Max becomes the prime suspect, Janie must face her partner’s secrets—and her own—if she ever wants her daughter to see her father again.
An endlessly suspenseful and surprising look at both the beauty and darkness of modern motherhood, You Should Have Told Me is a roller-coaster of a thriller with family at its heart.

Story
One year ago, Isabelle Drake's life changed forever: her toddler son, Mason, was taken out of his crib in the middle of the night while she and her husband were asleep in the next room. With little evidence and few leads for the police to chase, the case quickly went cold. However, Isabelle cannot rest until Mason is returned to her—literally. Except for the occasional catnap or small blackout where she loses track of time, she hasn’t slept in a year. Isabelle's entire existence now revolves around finding him, but she knows she can’t go on this way forever.

When Alex first began posting unscripted family moments and motivational messages online, she had no intention of becoming an influencer. Overnight it seemed she’d amassed a huge following, and her hobby became a full-time job—one that was impossible to manage without her sharp-as-a-tack personal assistant, AC. But all the good-will of her followers turns toxic when one controversial post goes viral in the worst possible way.

UrbanMyth: It was lauded as an alternative to the performative, show-your-best-self platforms—an anonymous discussion board grouped by zip code. The residents of Manhattan’s exclusive Upper East Side disclosed it all, things they would never share with their friends or their spouses: secret bank accounts, steamy affairs, tidbits of juicy gossip. So when a “hacktivist” group breaks into the forum and exposes the real identity of each poster, the repercussions echo down Park Avenue with a force that none could have anticipated.

Of course, I’m not going to murder her in the night. I need my laptop back first. That’s the whole point of making friends with Emily Harper, author of the hugely successful novel Diary of an Octopus. So I could get into her apartment and take back what’s mine. Emily doesn’t know who I really am. She thinks I’m her biggest fan, her new best friend who happens to need a place to stay for a few days. She doesn’t realize the laptop she found—and took—from a busy airport almost two years ago was mine. I don’t care about the laptop, just what's on it: my diary.

Critic reviews
"Atmospheric and deeply thought-provoking, You Should Have Told Me is both a page-turning mystery and a deft exploration of the thorny intersection of marriage and parenthood and the complex, often fraught reality of new motherhood."—Kimberly McCreight, author of Friends Like These
“Janie’s ambivalence around motherhood is familiar, if not talked about enough, and the title is engagingly multifaceted—clearly she and Max are keeping bombshells from one another, but this is also a woman’s cry for help, saying You Should Have Told Me how difficult motherhood would be.”—Paste Magazine
"Unique, cleverly plotted, and emotionally resonant, You Should Have Told Me is the rare thriller that manages to be both a dazzling page-turner and a moving meditation on what it means to be a mother today. It thoughtfully explores society's sky-high standards for women, the secrets we hide even from ourselves, and how hard it can be to trust others—especially those we love the most. I absolutely loved it, and trust me: This book is going to be huge."—Andrea Bartz, author of We Were Never Here

Story
Sure, it's romantic up amidst the snow-capped peaks of Wyoming's Grand Teton Mountains, but Hanna Alexander has only one thing on her mind: trying to save the family lodge. That is, she did - right up until she hired mountain-guide Micah Gallagher to help raise revenues. Teeming with suspicion and intrigue, this Grand Teton adventure leaves listeners struggling with the Christian principle of forgiveness in the face of emotional entanglements, fears of the heart, and the inevitable agony of love.

main character is awful
The only reason I listened to the whole book is because of the amazing narrator!
main character is whiny and not captivating. The end is unimpressive and makes no sense. it trues to be a shocker but does not accomplish that!

pretty decent read
overall I enjoyed this book. there were times I found the heroin a little annoying. I didn't need so many descriptions of her nursing her baby to get that she was a new mother. I didn't understand why her doubting her own ability to be a good mother was such an intricate part of the story till hearing the authors note at the end. some parts dragged, I feel like it could have been 10 chapters less but this was a decent read!

Not a likable character in the book
The main character is so overly dramatic and whiny. Her characteristics are more in line with a 16 or 17 year old than an almost 30 something adult.
I listen to 3-4 books a week and was dissatisfied and disappointed in this one.
I would not waste a credit on this book with such an unsympathetic main character.

Unimpressed
Has moments of being interesting, but not as a whole a compelling book. I’m no rocket scientist by far, but listen to the descriptions of the characters and you can pretty much figure out who the bad person is pretty early on. Do not recommend

Victim mindset, lackluster thinking and whining beyond belief
This book was so drawn out because of the amounts of whining. I understand understanding the main characters feelings but Jesus the amount of just “poor me” in the book is concerning. Very much so a victim mindset when things happen you don’t buck up you cry about it and blame everyone else. It was quite an annoying read which sucks because I was so excited to read this. Not recommending, not impressed respectfully.
