I spent three days at CDM Sound Studios recording the audiobook of The Love We Found for Penguin Random House Audio. It was such an incredible experience to climb back into Lucy’s skin eight years after I recorded the audiobook for The Light We Lost. This novel is emotional too, and now, if you listen to both audiobooks, you can hear me trying not to cry on the very last section of each.
