Latest listen: Clare Mackintosh's After the End, narrated by Louise Brealey, Matt Reeves, and Nathalie Armin. Mackintosh has written three top-notch twisty thrillers, but this title is a departure from the genre (which I knew going in). After the End is a heartbreaking book about loving parents who are divided about whether to let their terminally ill, severely brain-damaged two-year-old die, or to try additional treatment to extend his life. Excellent book, both sad and hopeful, with well-rounded characters who are all trying to put the child first.
