A synopsis of Lisa Jewell’s most popular novels
Before I Met You
This is a novel about family and sacrifice. Betty has given up everything to take care of her grandmother Arlette, and now that she is gone, she must do one last favor for her and find out who the mysterious woman in her last will is.
The Making of Us
Daniel is dying, and on his deathbed, he’s decided to tell his friend Maggie the story of his life. The story includes his children whom he has never met: Lydia, Dean, and Robyn. The children have never met each other, either. Not yet, at least.
Thirtynothing
Dig Ryan suddenly bumps into an old classmate, Delilah, the most beautiful girl in school and his first love. But Delilah was also the source of Nadine’s, Dig’s best friend’s, misery. Is the story from more than a decade ago going to repeat itself now that they’re all back together?
Then She Was Gone
Laurel’s daughter Ellie disappeared fifteen years ago, but she’s never lost hope. Things, however, become difficult for her when she meets her new partner’s daughter, who looks exactly like Ellie when she was her age.
Invisible Girl
This novel takes place in a weird neighborhood: Owen Pick lives with his aunt, he’s a nobody in his thirties, and he’s been accused of sexual misconduct; his neighbors, the Fours, find him a bit weird and creepy. Saffyre, a young girl and a patient of one of the Fours, has disappeared—and Owen saw her last.
The House We Grew Up In
The Birds are a comfy family with four children, Meg, Beth, Rory, and Rhys, a hippie mom, and a youthful dad. Unfortunately, tragedy is not picky when choosing targets, and it has the Fours in its scope one Easter weekend.
Roommates Wanted
Toby’s marriage has failed after a month, and he’s left alone in a Victorian mansion. Thankfully, Leah wants to be his roommate—and perhaps something more.
