About this listen

An emotional listen read from the NUMBER ONE bestselling author of The Last List of Mabel Beaumont, that fans of Colleen Hoover, Cecelia Ahern and Gabrielle Zevin will love.What if there is life before we are born?

There are four of us: Samuel, Lucy, Thomas, and me – Eliza. And – if you’ve heard of the afterlife… well, we live in the beforelife.

We came into being the day Becca Valentine was born. We’ve been by her side ever since. What she doesn’t know yet, is that one day she might become our mother.

Then two men come into her life. Both seeking her heart. And then we realise: everything rests on Becca’s love story. Because one of the men is Lucy and Thomas’s father. And the other is mine and Samuel’s. And there’s simply no way we can all be born.

We all want her to make the right choice. We all want to be born. To hold her hand one day. To feel her stroke our hair. To call her our mother.

Then we discover there is something we can do. We can change Fate. But we only have a single chance each. How would you make sure you were born? And what if doing that isn’t what’s best for the person you already love the most in the world – your mother?

The narrator is music to the ears

It was an easy book, but in my opinion, for a young teenage audience, a young adult book as opposed to an adult book. It tells a story with serious consequences, all youngsters should read it.

Brilliant and unlike anything I’ve ever read

What a story and what an idea for a plot, I’ve never come across anything like it. As always Laura has created a group of characters that you become fully invested in. With clever twists and double twists it keeps you hungry for more to find out what happens next. I really recommend this book, please listen to it and then tell all your friends about it.

Wonderful

When I read the description I had to listen to this straight away as i had never come across a storyline like it before. it was everything I hoped it would be. It was an emotional roller coaster and I look forward to listening to more from this author.
