The Lucky One by Lori Rader-Day
2.0
1.5/5
The audiobook started off really interesting but I started losing interest part way through as the story slowly became more and more complicated and disjointed. Honestly, I was confused for the most part and kept wondering where the story was heading and whether or not I should DNF the audiobook or keep going. Everything eventually came together in the end but overall, I didn't feel like the story was very well executed.
I also couldn't connect or sympathize with any of the characters. Both Alice and Merrily (especially Merrily!) were really annoying and I was not at all convinced that these were 30-something year old women - they acted and talked like teenagers and had really weird and unrealistic relationships with the people around them.
