About this listen

 Settling down for a 24-hour flight to Australia, Lucy finds a text message on her phone - not from her boyfriend James, as she fondly hopes, but from a woman claiming to have slept with him four times in the past month. Trapped on the plane, she questions everything about her relationship with James. She finally calls him and he reassures her: it was only his mates playing a silly joke.

James is a lawyer, persuasive and gorgeous and Lucy adores him. So why, at the wedding in Sydney of her best friend Molly, does she have niggling doubts, and find herself attracted to Molly's brother-in-law Nathan? The sooner she gets back to her regular life in London, the flat she shares with James, her job in PR, the better. Nathan is a happy-go-lucky surfer boy, with no prospects, no place to live, an almost-girlfriend in tow. And the other side of the world...

Lucy - a girl caught between two distant continents - and two very different men... Fiction Women's Fiction

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Lucy was very hypocritical and I didn't like her indecisiveness.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

I liked the two settings, Australia and England

Did Jane Collingwood do a good job differentiating each of the characters? How?

I feel like she did a good job at the females, but the male characters were a bit confusing.

Do you think Lucy in the Sky needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

I think a longer epilogue or a short story would do fine. If it got a whole new book I think it would be too boring.

Any additional comments?

it's really good with the music noise background of airport to make it feel real storyline is the best and the accents of the storytellers

Paige Toons best seller

I really wanted to listen to this book but I’ll have to read it in print. Being an Australian I couldn’t stand the fake Aussie accent. I know it’s a hard accent to master but it just made me cringe and I couldn’t get through the story.

The bad Australian accents are very hard to listen to. Most of the book is in the main characters voice which is ok, but it’s hard to enjoy a book when the narration is so bad. The first half of the story is promising but I find the ending pretty weak.

The narrator isn’t great
