    About this audiobook

    The must-read book of 2019! Equal parts heartwarming and heartbreaking, fans of Jojo Moyes, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine and One Day in December will love this special novel by Drew Davies.

    Dear Lily, It's me, Joy, your older sister. I thought I'd start a new tradition of letter writing – now that we're long distance. On the plane over here, I began to cry. I think the magnitude of it finally hit me, after everything that happened… I haven't even unpacked yet. I'm sorry for abandoning you – I've always been your agony aunt, and a buffer in your shouting matches with Mum. But I had to leave, Lily, I had to. Anyway, I'm here now. I'm here to start over, and face up to the past. I want to learn to laugh again, and to find someone to love who will love me back. Wish me luck, little sister. Love, Joy x

      After “The End”

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

      Think this is the book I have enjoyed most so far this year, poignant, (and I have had a run of good ones) Dear Lily is heartfelt, funny and beautifully written. Thank you Drew Davies for this fab novel and Eilidh Beaton for your perfect narration.
