The Girl from the Sea (Audible Audio Edition) Shalini Boland Gemma Dawson Tantor Audio Books
As psychological thrillers go, “The Girl from the Sea,” outclasses “Gone Girl” for plot and writing. Unlike “Gone Girl,” the storyline in, “The Girl from the Sea,” is plausible; right to the twisty-ending. The story is a constant guessing-game, from the novel’s opening to closing sentences.Everyone in this gripping suspenseful tale are flawed; especially the title character. Mia is found unconscious at the edge of the sea. Although her procedural memory (knowing how to do things) is intact, she struggles to regain her explicit memories (knowing her previous life). A young woman with amnesia, she does her best to cope with the possibilities of a future without knowledge of her past. As breadcrumbs of her former life are revealed, the game to regain her memories … her life … are played out to perfection.
“The Girl from the Sea,” is a quick read, with tight and concise writing. Author Shalini Boland, word-paints her character’s surroundings with precise storks, giving just enough description to let readers emerge themselves into her protagonist’s world … at the same time leaving space for their imaginations to run wild with speculation.

The Girl from the Sea (Audible Audio Edition) Shalini Boland Gemma Dawson Tantor Audio Books Reviews
You wake up and find yourself lying on a beach. The problem is you don't know how you got there, who you are or anything about your past. Your prior life is a total blank.
This is the world in which Mia finds herself. The plot in which Mia gradually has flashbacks and doesn't quite know what is real and what isn't seems entirely believable. As her frightening world gradually unfolds and suspense builds the reader is drawn into a plot that is moving in an unexpected direction. You, along with Mia, gradually begin to realize exactly who she really was.
Thoroughly enjoyable, well edited, well written. Good job Shalini. We look forward to more of your novels in the future.
This book had me hooked from the beginning. As Mia suffering from amnesia tries to piece together her life I was drawn in. There were new clues and revelations around every corner but I never saw the twisted ending coming. The reader is led to believe everyone that pops up in her life has a motive. Well written as was The Best Friend. Totally looking forward to this author's next book.
What if you wake up on shore one morning and couldn’t remember a thing? You have no idea how you got there, you don’t know your name, what you look like or even who your family and friends are. This is what happened to a young woman, she was told her name is Mia and she was identified by her boyfriend, Piers… he has some photos of them together, so what he’s saying must be true, right? Little by little, she tries to decipher her life based on what she’s told by her boyfriend, her mother and half-sister, a friend named Jack from the rowing club that she belongs to and even a nasty neighbor. She feels a disconnect and soon discovers that the people who are supposed to be the closest to her are all lying to her for different reasons.
“The mind is an incredible thing – it can steer you to madness, or furnish you with comfort.” Is she going mad? Who can she trust? Why does she keep having a reoccurring memory of a woman sneering at her? As a couple of unclear memories begin to surface, she becomes worried that this wasn’t an accident after-all. Then, another body is washed up on shore and now she believes that she may actually be in danger.
I didn’t give this book a full 5 stars only because I didn’t quite sympathize with Mia, I felt like more of her past could’ve been explored as her memories returned.
The plot was slightly predictable but towards the end when the final revelation comes to light… for me, it was completely unexpected. (I love when that happens!)
Besides that, it was fast-paced and an overall enjoyable read! 🙃

First off, this book is written all in the present tense ( I get a glass of water...I sit down...) Which I always hate. But putting that aside, I quite enjoyed it. Often "twists" of this magnitude seem hokey, but this wasn't. It was genuinely disturbing and well-done. And it makes you wonder, to what extent do our memories make us who we are?
I just finished reading The Girl from the Sea, and it's going to take a minute to catch my breath. Since I've read a couple of the author's books I was prepared for quite a twist, a good shocker. But I feel like I've been ambushed, punched in the gut!
Growing up as the daughter of a police detective, and now being a writer of suspense, I pride myself on being able to at least vaguely figure out the ending.
Not so much with Shalini. Even if I figure out a little morsel of the truth there's still always a surprise.
I was a bit reluctant to start reading this book as it's not really my normal genre but i was soon trapped. Couldn't stop reading until it was finished. An what an unexpected ending! Loved it!
