About this listen

This collection of short stories gives a glimpse into life, love, loss, and the inexplicable in between. Includes themes of grief, finding hope, second chances, facing the consequences of your actions, and getting help from the unlikeliest of places.

As Cecilia helps the dying, she questions what happens to their spirits. But is she ready to find out?

  • Can a mother's race through the New Forest save her son?
  • Will visiting a medium bring Christina the closure she needs?
  • Can an intruder help an old lady with her loneliness?
  • Will the start of another wet and miserable Monday morning end with Maeve’s happy ever after.

This anthology includes the prize-winning flash fiction story Spirit Song.

What a wonderful collection of short stories! They are very different, but I loved them all.
Sandie Keane’s narration is perfect for this book.

Wonderful collection.

I suggest listening at 0.9x which is a slightly slower narration to the generic listening level x

Here we have a selection of very emotionally charged stories that have been written with care, respect and love. The audible version is narrated perfectly by Sandie Keane who does a fantastic job of bringing the author's (Suzanne Rogerson) words to life.

There are ten stories in all, each of them has a theme of love, loss or of life in between - hence the book’s title.

‘Goodbye Forever’ is the first story that really stood out to me. I felt the emotions of the lead female character so strongly, I could understand her fear, desperation and her motives. I found myself listening very intently to this one!

Another one that stood out for me was one titled ‘A Cat-shaped hole’ this one is about a cat making someone’s day! If you know anything about me at all then you will know that having a cat in your works will get my attention every time! One beautiful little story!

‘The Phone Call’ was my favorite story! This one is about a mother who has lost her child, she is trying to come to terms with what has happened and she is struggling. She visits a medium and soon after something very strange occurs!

Overall, I really enjoyed this collection, there was only one story that didn’t really do anything for me and that was called ‘Knocked off her Feet’ - this one is pure romance and just not my thing.

This was a 5 star listen for me and I would love to read/listen to more from this author in the future!

An eclectic and delightful selection of short stories, which are perfect for listening to when you fancy a few minutes relaxation, or you just want to dip in and out. They range from the slightly eerie to the 'feelgood' and 'cosy' tale, so there is something for everyone, including cat and dog lovers. Sometimes I wanted to know a bit more, but then that is the nature of the short story and an indication of the way the stories held my interest.

The narration was crisp and clear, although sometimes I found the accent the narrator used a bit jarring, but that could just be me.

That said, I found this anthology a very enjoyable listen.

An interesting anthology for varied tastes
