The Railwayman's Wife by Ashley Hay
4.0

3.5 stars

Narrator: Edwin Wren

This book was very beautiful, and the best word I can use to describe it is soulful. It's written in an almost melodic way, and it was a wonderful one to listen to on audio particularly with Edwina Wren's narration as it was beautiful. It was a quiet book about three people in a seaside Australian town who were all broken in some way and learning how to mend, with the main character being a widow called Annika Lachlan. I probably would have given this four stars if it wasn't for the very end, as I wasn't expecting it at all and it did leave me a little bit disappointed. The narration though was a 5/5 stars!
