Yep, its Will Patton. He actually really suits this book and he does the cop so well, but his voice is very different from any other narrator that I have listened to, it took me a bit to get used to him.

I have the audible version of this book. The narrator took me a little while to get used to but now I am really enjoying it. (view spoiler)The bad guy is very creepy and gives me the heeby jeebies, which I suppose is the point :)
Just got back from seeing The Theory of Everything. What a fabulous movie - I really want to read the book now!

I read the book and then watched the movie and the scene with the grandpa destroyed me and my friend. I have never heard so much sobbing in a cinema before. Thankfully I was able to keep my tears to myself - I hate crying at the cinema!!!
So far I have loved all of Gayle Forman's books that I have read, so I think her writing style just clicks with me.
I didn't find this one slow, but plenty of the reviewers on Goodreads did so not sure if you will find this one drags to V. At least with Gayle Forman books they are short enough that it is a quick read regardless.

Sad topic of teenage suicide, but very thought provoking with an interesting storyline that I wasn't expecting.
Just finished I Was Here so you can add Ben to the scavenger hunt, as it was the name of one of the characters.
wow Kristin. I though getting two finished by the end of the scavenger hunt would be difficult but 3-4! I am impressed!

Chp 1-2I only managed to get a couple of chapters in tonight but I can already tell that this isn't going to be an easy read. I think it will be the type of book where you need to concentrate or you'll lose track. It should be interesting though.

I've actually already started it, but we can put a thread down and I can comment on it when you start reading it?
