About this listen
Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Us Three written and read by Ruth Jones, co-creator of Gavin & Stacey and author of the smash-hit, number one bestselling debut, Never Greener.
Friends forever is a difficult promise to keep...
Meet Lana, Judith and Catrin. Best friends since primary school when they swore an oath on a Curly Wurly wrapper that they would always be there for each other, come what may.
After the trip of a lifetime, the three girls are closer than ever. But an unexpected turn of events shakes the foundation of their friendship to its core, leaving their future in doubt - there's simply too much to forgive, let alone forget. An innocent childhood promise they once made now seems impossible to keep....
Packed with all the heart and empathy that made Ruth's name as a screenwriter and now author, Us Three is a funny, moving and uplifting novel about life's complications, the power of friendship and how it defines us all. Prepare to meet characters you'll feel you've known all your life - prepare to meet Us Three.

"I love books about gnarly, messy relationships and this one kept me gripped from the beginning. A great read." (Jane Fallon, best-selling author of Tell Me a Secret)
"Easy to read and full of laughter - and truth." (Daily Mail)

I was hooked
Such a great listen, awesome narration and story line. I laughed and cried with the characters. Another great story from Ruth Jones. The characters have a huge amount of depth and she really brings them to life with her narration.

Ruth Jones is a legend
She will still always be Vanessa Shanessa to me, but on top of that she is a talented writer and narrator. Loved this book.

A divine read!
I loved the book and the narration. Judith, Lana and Catrin were just wonderfully developed characters whom i enjoyed so very much.
What caught me off-guard was Judith’s narcissistic personality disordered mother, Patricia. I have one myself and found myself cheering Judith on from the very beginning…”Just get your rucksack and go Judith; the bitch isn’t sick and you’ll never get this opportunity again!!!” hahaha
Ruth Jones created the particular behaviours of a covert narcissist so well in the character of Patricia, it was alarming.
What I didn’t enjoy was the tidy tie-up of this character - narcissistic mothers are toxic to the end (and beyond the grave) and they leave a trail of destruction. I would have believed the character’s storyline much more if it had of portrayed the truth of narcissistic mothers; that they take no prisoners.
