I've been waiting for this one to come out for so long now after binging the previous books. I was not disappointed and I certainly hope this one wasn't the last. Awesome performance of the book as well.

love this series

This one was great if not sad. For anyone who hasn't listened yet get your tissues out. You get so invested in the characters that you can't help but feel the sadness.

I do hope Richard has started on the Fifth Book. These are really great to listen to the Fiona Shaw reads it beautifully.
I do have favourites for narrators, and I have now added Fiona Shaw to the list.

Amazing Please let there be a Fifth Book

Tried so hard to take my time with this book as I had pre-ordered it and waited for ages for it to arrive but I could not and alas it was done in 3 days. I loved it as much as the first three, I am so sad I have finished it. Give this series a go, you will not regret it.

I am devastated

Fantastic book. I think even better than the first ones. I had to read it twice as I didn’t want to miss a word.
Incredible pathos and understanding for Alzheimer Disease,
Best idea ever for New Years Eve…I know what I’ll be doing for my next NYE.
Thank you Richard, please keep them coming!

Can’t wait for the next one!

Brilliant storytelling. So many touching chapters.
Some accents don't sound quite right, but they don't take away from the flow of the story.

Very enjoyable listening experience

Some of the best writing I have ever encountered, especially Chapter 60. Finished it in one day, and started back on book 1 the next.

Fiona Shaw's narration, on the other hand, was a bit of a let down. Her Scouse accent is poor, she has made Chris sound like a bumpkin and she mispronounces Ibrahim's name all the way through, not to mention using the wrong voice sometimes.

But don't let that put you off. Characters we love, the everyday humour of life and a plot you can really get your teeth into. Brilliant!

Brilliant!

Loved this story and the characters as much as the previous books. I laughed and cried. But the narration, I'm sorry to say, let it down. My main gripe is mispronouncing Ibrahim's name as Ibraham. A lot. Maybe they rushed the recording and editing to get it out. The story is so good, I did not appreciate getting distracted from the plot by the narrator. But I still recommend listening to it. What a world to visit!

Brilliant story, narration not so much

I was looking forward to this book and have listened to it in 2 days. I was surprised that I actually deduced the plot! It's not easy.

The stories of the lives is so well written. Parts of it, describing Stephen's dementia are absolutely tear jerking, especially if you have that in your life. Brilliantly written.

I found the narration excellent.

I have a book hangover definitely wondering what the gang are up to now! Fantastic work.

Just Wow!!

What a scorcher! So enjoyed being back with the gang again, in some ways I’m sad it’s over but just couldn’t help myself and barely put it down. Highly recommend to anyone who loves superbly written characters, excellent twisty plots and humour mixed into your crime.

Astoundingly brilliant!
