From the author of the 2 million+ copy, worldwide bestseller, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, an exquisite, funny and heartrending parallel story.

A new volunteer at the hospice suggests that Queenie should write again; only this time she must tell Harold everything. In confessing to secrets she has hidden for twenty years, she will find atonement for the past.

Apparently I am quite alone with my opinion...but I just don't want to listen to the last third and I decided to drop it. I enjoyed Harold Fry as it was and I thought it'd be nice to get to know more about the story but as the audiobook went on I just lost more and more interest. It's not a bad book, I don't want to say that. But the first book doesn't really need this follow-up in my opinion. We hear/read about a lot of the same things just from Queenie's perspective and I have to admit that even though I felt pity for her for all those terrible things happening to her I never could feel sympathy no matter how much I would have liked to. Only pity and that wasn't enough for me to follow this obsessed troubled woman's journey through life. I think I just might have expected something else.
