About this listen
Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there. I do not sleep. There is nothing more powerful than a mother's love.
Five years ago Molly Gabriel lost her twenty-year-old son, Joey, to a terrible sailing accident. His empty boat was washed ashore on the rocks, but his body was never found.
Now Molly has returned to the sands of Cornwall, haunted by his disappearance, unable to accept he is gone. Joey was an experienced sailor and died on a calm sea--things just don't add up, and Molly cannot let it go. Desperate for answers, she turns to Joey's best friend, Ben, to go back to what really happened that day...
Intensely emotional and relentlessly suspenseful, I Do Not Sleep is the latest best seller from broadcaster, journalist, and book club champion Judy Finnigan.

Lovely heartwarming story
I am not usually into books like this. This book however rings so true. I understand the way the mind can lead us when we are bereaved.

Sad but compelling
I enjoyed the book about a mother's love for her child. Felt there should have been a few light hearted moments.

Wow. I loved this title so so much. 5 stars all round for definite!
Absolutely loved this title. The story was so engaging and I’ve listened to it in 24 hours on and off. I loved it so much I’ve purchased the other 2 books by this author. The narration was spot on. Everything about it was top class. I’ve added to this to my collections and will be listening to it again at some point. I didn’t want the story to end but the ending was so fitting. Hats off to Judy. Hope the next 2 books I’ve found are as good. No fault whatsoever. A well deserving 5 stars………

A Really enjoyable listen
What made the experience of listening to I Do Not Sleep the most enjoyable?
I thought it was a gripping story that twisted and turned at every chapter. As I listened to this book whilst commuting to and from work, it made the usual traffic jams a pleasure to be in.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, however this was not possible.
Any additional comments?
I thought the book itself was well written. As a Mancunian who has been holidaying in Cornwall every year since childhood I really identified with parts of this book. I know the area it was set in very well and it made me want to drive straight to Polperro.

Oh heck, what a waste of a credit!
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
no sorry! I was expecting so much from this book and author, unfortunately neither delivered.
The story line was all over the place and so repetitive I ended up feeling very frustrated with it! I did listen to the end as I wanted to find out what happened to Ben...even that was a let down!!!
Would you be willing to try another book from Judy Finnigan? Why or why not?
Probably not... scarecrow ghost visions, fickle characters and long winded boring descriptions of Cornwall (and I love Cornwall by the way) made for tedious listening.
What didn’t you like about Patience Tomlinson’s performance?
the narrator struggled with the male voices, it felt very put on, almost like listening to a four year old child impersonating her Daddy's voice! when she was in female character she sounded very much like the Lady from 'Keeping up appearances' . Sorry but this is also a negative for me.
Do you think I Do Not Sleep needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
argh no!
Any additional comments?
sorry Judy, I so wanted to like this book :-(

What a disappointment!
I was really looking forward to listening to this book. I had high expectations but was very disappointed. The narrator has a very whiny, irritating voice, the plot was weak and the descriptions of the locations, repetitive and over stated. The story was so slow and drawn out that I got half way through the book and had to give up on it.

9 hours of my life I'm never getting back.
Clumsy and heavy handed, lacking subtlety and nuance. Parts reminded me of a year 8's attempt at suspense writing. Weak storyline and inadequate resolution to the 9 hours build-up of moaning.
