Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
The eagerly awaited, life-affirming and moving new novel from number one best-selling Author Dawn French.
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock...midnight.
The old millennium turns into the new.
In the same hospital, two very different women give birth to two very similar daughters.
Hope leaves with a beautiful baby girl.
Anna leaves with empty arms.
Seventeen years later, the gods who keep watch over broken-hearted mothers wreak mighty revenge and the truth starts rolling, terrible and deep, toward them all.
The power of mother-love will be tested to its limits.
Perhaps beyond....
Because Of You is Dawn French's stunning new novel, told with her signature humour, warmth and so much love.

Enjoyable listening
It took me a while to get into this audio book, but when I did I couldn't turn it off. I loved the story line, the lively characters and Dawn's performance.

Frustrating
Dawn French narrating may not have helped. The 3 female lead characters diction was the same as the vicar of Dibley.
Sorry, but it became irritating.

I would listen to Dawn French read the dictionary
Lovely, interesting, real characters. At times hilarious, always compelling, with moments of true sorrow, this book had more substance and nuance than expected. I bought this because I just love Dawn French as an actor and comedian, and now I also love her as a novelist. ☆☆☆☆☆
