About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Those we think we know best can sometimes surprise us the most . . .

After being together for ten years, Sylvie and Dan have a comfortable home, fulfilling jobs, beautiful twin girls, and communicate so seamlessly, they finish each other's sentences. They have a happy marriage and believe they know everything there is to know about each other. Until it's casually mentioned to them that they could be together for another sixty-eight years... and panic sets in.

They quickly decide to create little surprises for each other, to keep their relationship fresh and fun. But in their pursuit of Project Surprise Me - anything from unexpected gifts to restaurant dates to photo shoots - mishaps arise with disastrous and comical results.

Gradually, the surprises turn to shocking discoveries. And when a scandal from the past is uncovered, they begin to wonder if they ever really knew each other after all. . .

'Left me giddy with laughter. I loved it' JOJO MOYES

Even so enjoyed it.
I love this writer.

Easy read

this was quite a slow paced book
I found it hard to keep interested and there was little grip to the storyline. there was little intrigue though the characters were well written the story was not. a bit of a disappointment as I usually like books by Sophie Kinsella

not the usual standard

Although some of Kinsella’s works have been rather hit and miss in recent years, this is a return to form with a fun and moving story. Well worth a listen.

Surprisingly Good.

I feel this book is about different to her other books, it doesn't follow the same. ups and downs, ins and outs as her other books take you on ! brilliant

I loved the book and thought it was a great story! Wish it wasn’t so longed out at the start, didn’t really get good or get into it until maybe chapters 10 but once it got past this point, it was an amazing read! Highly recommend.

Very slow start but amazing read

Really enjoyed Surprise Me. It was an easy listen and very entertaining. Loved the way the syory unfolds and can relate to the long term relationship aspect of it. Well narrated too.

Entertaining listen.

I love Sophie Kinsellas work and this is a really nice story from a great author, bit slow to start with but a more grown up story than the other books and great characters. Worth listening to.

I really enjoyed it

I didn't find this book to be funny or uplifting like other Sophie Kinsella books I've listened to. in fact it was pretty negative all the way through. I nearly gave up a couple of times but persevered to the end. Still not sure I should have though...

Not as enjoyable as her other books

I'm a big fan of S K but this one lacked some of the magic.

Only okay
