A review by amandawoodruff
The Listener by Shira Nayman
2.0
"I am like a lifeguard with the terrible, secret knowledge that he does not himself know how to swim."
The Listener has good writing and characters with real promise, but doesn't go far. I kept waiting for some shocking revelation or surprise, but ends up exactly where you thought it would with little in the twists & turns department. The build up of suspense was enjoyable, but without resolution.
It's a good character novel with lots of internal conflict/struggle and interpersonal conversations. Actually, it would probably make a great stage play.
