A review by sunnivamidt
Unbecoming by Jenny Downham

I really, really love Jenny Downham's first book 'Before I Die'. It is magical and wonderful, and I was excited to read 'Unbecoming'. I found it through Storytel, and gave it a good hour listening before I left it to explore other audiobooks. I am not particularly fond of the British family drama stories. I have read J K Rowling's 'The Casual Vacancy' and Mark Haddon's 'The Red House', both authors whose previous work I also loves, and I wasn't impressed. 'Unbecoming' starts off with three female characters that don't have anything interesting about them at all. I assume there is a character arc to follow, but there is no hook. Nothing about any of these women made me want to keep reading, and honestly, had it not been for the fact that I loved 'Before I Die' so much, I would probably not have listened to more than 20 min.
