The Night We Lost Him: The gripping new thriller from the bestselling author of THE LAST THING HE TOLD ME | 
so-soThis was more of a family drama than a mystery and it definitely wasn‘t a thriller. I was curious enough about what happened to the father but a lot of this wasn‘t compelling. I did not understand the motivations of the father character and his primary relationship, which took away some of my enjoyment. I did care enough to finish though! This didn‘t fit well with my other December reads but I had to take it when my library hold came in!
pickRead this in one day. A fast moving story about a brother and sister who are convinced their father was murdered, not suicide as the police have determined. Big twist! Interesting characters too.
pickThis is a gentle mystery, and not really about the mystery, so much, and more about the characters and their relationships. Family, death, love, loyalty, secrets, identity, inheritance, self discovery. This is a fast read and you won‘t want to put it down. If you liked the author‘s book The Last Thing He Told Me, you‘ll like this one even better. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
so-soMore of a very sad love story than a thriller. I enjoyed it most of the time - but it was a bit boring in parks and the name of Liam‘s love felt like a bit of a tortured trick.
pickSimilar vibe to The Last Thing He Told Me. [full review to come]
I can't believe this is my first Laura Dave book. It certainly won't be my last. This book was SO GOOD. From the very start to the tearful ending I was hooked.
This is a love story and a mystery. It's about the love between Liam and Cory. They met in school. Liam's cousin Joe introduced them. In a way.
Such a beautiful and sad story.

pickI really enjoyed how this family drama/mystery played out. When As I finished this I realized I never spent a minute of my reading trying to determine how the mystery would resolve. I was just a fly on the wall reading as Nora and Sam discovered the life of the man who was their father.
Dad would never commit suicide.
He was young, healthy, happy, and successful.
We have to find out if someone was with him the night he slipped and fell to his death on the rocks that he could walk over in his sleep.

so-soNot a thriller, not suspenseful. I wish they wouldn‘t have blurbed it as such. It‘s more of a slow-going family drama, that is well-written, but not what‘s expected.
