Reviews

Fresh and intriguing, with characters so real I ached for them. I loved I Found You -- Clare Mackintosh
Ive never read a book by Lisa that I didnt love. In this case, I ended up reading the whole thing in a day which is always a pleasure, and makes you feel as if youve had a little holiday from your own life. -- Jojo Moyes
I LOVED I Found You. A proper thriller with wonderful characters. -- Sabine Durrant
Lisa Jewell just keeps getting better. I thought nothing could top The Girls, then along came I Found You. Three separate strands, three very different characters with one dark mystery at its core. With another writer, I would be trying to solve the mystery by chapter two, but Lisas books are so deliciously immersive, like a warm scented bath, you dont want to jump ahead to find out what happened, preferring to lie back and let the story wash over you. The plot of I Found You is gripping and compelling but, as always with Lisa. its the characters that drive the book. With the possible exception of Anne Tyler, I cant think of another writer who so gets to the heart of what it is to be human, in all humanitys flawed decency. I Found You is a wise, compassionate, gripping tale by a storyteller who totally gets people - acting well and acting badly, but mostly muddling through trying our best. -- Tamar Cohen
I Found You is exciting, entertaining and a crackingly good read Lisa Jewell knows exactly how to drip feed information that compels the reader to want to read more and more and I found myself unable to put the book down A perfect read. This is the first time Ive read one of [Lisas] books but it certainly wont be the last. * Lindas Book Bag *
