Night Music

A Novel

By: Jojo Moyes

Narrated by: Elizabeth Knowelden

Now published in the United States for the first time - an early novel from the number one New York Times best-selling author of The Giver of Stars.

Isabel Delancey, a classical violinist, has always taken her comfortable life for granted. But when her husband dies suddenly, leaving her with a mountain of debt, she and her two children are forced to abandon their home and move to the Spanish House, a now-dilapidated manor Isabel inherited in the English countryside.

With the house falling down around them, and the last of her savings disappearing fast, Isabel turns to her neighbors for help, not knowing that her mere presence there has stirred up long-standing obsessions.

As she fights to make her house a home, passions and lives collide. Isabel will discover an instinct for survival she never knew she had - and that a heart can play a new song....

Great writing once again

Great character development! Story was very well told and the conclusion is perfectly done. This was my second Jojo Moyes book. After The Giver of Stars I didn’t know if that story could be topped. I loved this book.

Another great story by jojo

It’s got it all- lovely quirky characters, problems and triumphs, love and a teeny bit of intrigue. This audiobook did not disappoint.

Need to pay attention when the story switches POV

Very interesting ensemble cast of characters. Could not guess where the story would go next, unique and worth it!!

Envy, Love, Family and Human Misdeeds

I enjoyed the characters, the struggles and triumphs, the passion and a wonderfully interesting story

Worth the credit

Couldn't quit listening. A little disappointed with the ending. It seemed almost unbelievable, and Matt's character seemed exaggerated.

Wish I could hear the violin!

What an extraordinary tale! Jojo Moyes always weaves those in such a detailed way - I almost feel as though I am there! No wonder she is one of my favorite authors. I only listen when I’m working out on the elliptical, and with this book, I often was tempted to do double time!

I fancy myself as an author, but I never would have guessed how this all came out. The ending was perfect, and it was worth every minute to hear how she pulled it all together.

I hope I never run out of JoJo’s books, because it might not be as tempting to work out every day… if any of you know her, please convince her to keep writing more and more and more!

Not as good as Giver of Stars

Hard to pin down the time period…not until half way through did we have a character on a cell phone (unless I wasn’t listening carefully), so it felt like a huge time warp when suddenly there was reference to cell phone and computer games. Also not as believable of a story as I’d like, partly due to the ending. the ending was really disappointing. Partial SPOILER: the antagonist’s choices were written off / excused as a mental breakdown. And the love story & chance at hope and redemption is shrouded in a secret.

A book you can’t stop reading

Beautiful story
Wonderful narration
The book Grabs you on first page and never lets you go

Thank you!!

Another very well-developed and captivating novel, created by a most gifted novelist, and beautifully performed!!

Great performance. Engaging story could b better

I had just listened to Jojo Moyes audible book of "In someone else's shoes" read by Ridley and love love loved it.
Wanted to find another England based novel by Moyes. This one wasn't as good but still pretty good. I loved the performance. The characters are a little one note and it really is a book centered around renovating a house. It should be called " the house" or something. Night Music is a little misleading. I listened to the end though, which I don't do unless I am engaged, So I would say thumbs up with those caveats I mentioned.
