About this listen

After Chloe and her daughter, Freya, are rescued from disaster by a man, Chloe decides she must find him again to thank him.

But instead of meeting her knight in shining armour, she comes across Nadine Caspian, who warns her to stay away from him.

The man is dangerous, Nadine claims, and a compulsive liar. Alarmed, Chloe knows that the sensible choice would be to walk away. But she is too curious. What could Nadine have meant?

Where does Pictures or It Didn't Happen rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Fairly high; Sophie Hannah seldom disappoints.

What other book might you compare Pictures or It Didn't Happen to, and why?

Because She Loves Me by Mark Edwards

Have you listened to any of Julia Barrie’s other performances? How does this one compare?

Yes, I have and this one is good too.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

No; the story is interesting but doesn't develop as it should. It could be longer. Sophie Hannah is very good at building up tension and she does this but it falls rather flat. The protagonist should have been more concerned about her child. The revelation of the true sociopath isn't developed properly. However, I did enjoy the book and shall continue to buy Sophie Hannah. I have read or listened to most of her books.

Any additional comments?

This was a daily deal. I love the daily deals; when one isn't quite sure about a book and is afraid of being disappointed, this is the ideal thing. Of course, one can return it if one likes. I have never done that.

Good potential, not fulfilled.

I've read lots of Sophie Hannah books and so looked for one I hadn't read to listen to. This caught my fancy but it must be the most boring book I've listened to. Nothing happens and the voice wasn't very inspiring (sorry).
