What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty
4.0
Occasionally a little too close to home about the nature of marriage after children and change, this audiobook was quite well read, and the story was entertaining.
The narrative jumps occasionally to Alice's sister, Elizabeth, who is undergoing therapy, and her grandmother, who is living in a retirement community and writing a blog about herself and her family. To me, these devices were clumsy ways to further the plot, and the main Alice storyline actually stood well on its own without them. I might actually skip them if I were reading the book rather than listening.
Overall I was happy with the conclusion of the book, as it fit the narrative and idea of how people change over time but their underlying self can remain the same. But I would dearly love to know if they managed to get into the Guiness Book of Records!
