Publisher's summary

Twelve women connected by the death of another, realizing what they most want from life and reaching for it - this is the year of discovery, the year of new beginnings.

Lizzie Reed wanted to be a pediatric nurse after watching her younger sister, Margaret, struggle as an infant with a hole in her heart. Going to college had been a given from the time she was a child. Her parents never planned it any other way, but when Lizzie goes to a party and wakes up in a guy’s bed without any memory of how she got there, the world comes crashing down around her.

How can she pick up and move on as if nothing ever happened? And what do you do when you can’t remember an event, but everyone is telling you you need to take a stand? Lizzie has to face her demons and make a decision that may change the course of her life forever. More than that, she has to face her parents, and let them know she isn’t the same little girl they think she is.

Loved this Month’s story made more enjoyable by the narrator. Once you started you were caught up in the plot and the characters.

Lizzie's Problems

This will be a 12 short great book series, in 5th book May the main character is Lizzie a college student who had a devastating event happened to her and goes to Dr. Saito after urging of her friends. She has difficulty handling it all with added stress while her younger sister Margaret has to have immediate life threating surgery. Her friends Mel and Bonnie help her more than doc and Lizzie comes face to face with ex-boyfriend. Great narration and cannot wait for June as Mel will be primary character, I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. THANK YOU

Can you live with a trauma?

Lizzie, a 19-year-old student, lives through a traumatic experience and has to not only get over her denial (with a little help from a psychologist) but also finally get courage to be open with her own mother... Will she be able to take action to prevent whatever happened to her happen to others?

This is the 5th story in The Year of Discovery series, and I think it's one of my favourites. The main character is a young woman, barely out of her teenage years, who has suffered more than she should and finally finds courage to ask for help... She's sensitive, she's broken, and yet she manages to finally find strength within herself to go on with her life...

As in all the stories in the series, the pace is fast and maybe the matters do solve themselves a bit too quickly and too smoothly but the issues those stories touch upon are important and concern a great number of women in the world. And they give us hope that one day women will be strong enough for teir voices to be heard - we only have to make this first small step into the world to start an avalanche...:)

As in all the books in the series, narration by Ms Hazen is very good. She is emotional in all the right moments and impartial in the narrative parts. And she does all the voices really well in the series, even the male ones sound rather natural:)

Good Book

May (The Year of Discovery Book Five) was another great read by M.L. Hamilton. Lizzie is going to college to be a pediatric nurse and was always focused on school. She decided one day to attend a party and ended up in a guy's bed with no memory of what happened. She tries to move on but it isn't easy for her. She doesn't talk much about it but needs to open up to her family about what happened. I loved reading Lizzie's story and can't wait to read more in this series.

An Awesome Listen

I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the narrator and found it inspiring. Lizzie is a hard working college student, from a strict home, after a party she can't remember what happened to her but deep down she knows it wasn't good. Her world starts to fray around the edges and then her sister needs surgery on top of it. With the help of co-workers, friends and her little sister, she finds new strength to face her situation and deal with it. As with all the titles in this series, you are just absorbed into the story. This combination of author and narrator, can't be beat. Looking forward to next month.

Lizzie’s Story

The fifth book in The Year of Discovery series, but it can certainly be listened to as a stand alone.

Lizzie’s story is definitely relevant to situations that are unfortunately becoming all to familiar these days. She is a strong woman and I was thrilled with how this story was presented.

Kelley Hazen is one of the best narrators I’ve listened to. Not only does she give each character their own voice, but each has their own personality that has carried throughout the series. Fantastic!
