Coming Home
I Found You by Lisa Jewell is a contemporary novel and I really enjoyed it.
The storyline is intricate as the action moves backwards and forwards between 1993 and present day. The story is told in the third person from various viewpoints but it is not confusing.
I Found You is a compulsive read. It is a sad read but it is also a hopeful read. We cannot change the past but we can always enter the future with hope.
The novel really sank deep into my soul. It’s main theme was searching. Searching for a lost memory. Searching for a family. Searching for the truth. The reader really gets caught up in the search. The main character is lost and likeable. The reader really wants a good outcome. I found myself trying to guess the ending but failed! It was a very clever storyline.
