About this audiobook
From the author of What Remains True comes an emotionally captivating novel about a woman who wishes away her troubles but doesn’t anticipate the cost.
I wish…
It starts with a simple wish, and Emma Davies hardly notices when it comes true. She’s too preoccupied with a life she isn’t happy in—the spark in her marriage has fizzled, her career is headed nowhere and her boss is a misogynist. Her teenage daughter has grown distant, and her heart breaks daily for her teenage son with cerebral palsy. But soon Emma discovers her wishes are coming true, and she realizes that she has been given the power to change her life. Either that, or she’s going insane.
Emma begins testing her newfound gift, making calculated wishes and learning one important rule—once granted, they cannot be undone. Over time, she grows bolder as she builds up to the one wish she both fears and desperately longs to make. But when Emma finally gets everything she’s asked for, will it be worth the price?

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I loved the writing of this book. The author conveyed raw emotion for a lot of the characters and it drew you in right from the start. But the ending was very confusing and anti-climactic, and it was disappointing. I think the ending wasn’t as thought out as the rest of the book was, but I do like the author and I will try a second book by her. The narrator did an amazing job!
