You Then, Me Now by Nick AlexanderMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was a great book to listen to. I loved getting both Becky and Laura's perspective (present and past). My heart ached for what Laura had been through and what she lost. Although raising Becky was hard for her they built a complicated relationship and the trip was a good place for them to open up to one another. It was sweet to see Becky grow and find herself, and when their worlds collided it was beautiful!

Published: May 1, 2019
She’s given her daughter everything. Now it’s time to give her the truth.
Becky’s father is not just absent: he’s a mystery, a gaping hole in her past. He died before she was born and for her mother, Laura, the subject is strictly off-limits. But when Laura books an unexpected trip to Greece, Becky decides to join her, determined to get closer to her mother—and to the truth.
As they make their way to the beautiful island of Santorini, it becomes clear that this holiday is not as impulsive as Becky thought. Laura’s hiding something from her daughter—and she’s been hiding it for as long as Becky can remember. Laura has been here before, and that last visit holds the answers to Becky’s past.
But Laura’s memories of that first trip are tinged with pain and heartbreak, secrets she’s kept buried for twenty-five years. Now, with the truth emerging into the sunlight at last, can mother and daughter lay the ghosts of their past to rest and find the happiness they’ve both been looking for?
