When did they fall out of love? Were there good times before the bad? These are the questions we obsess over when a relationship ends, even when obsessing can do no good. But instead of moving forward through the emotional fallout of a break-up, Out of Love moves backward in time, weaving together an already unraveled tapestry.

Publisher's summary
The adult debut from best-selling, award-winning young adult author Jaclyn Moriarty - a frequently hilarious, brilliantly observed novel in the spirit of Maria Semple, Rainbow Rowell, and Gail Honeyman - that follows a single mother’s heartfelt search for greater truths about the universe, her family, and herself.
Twenty years ago, Abigail Sorenson’s brother Robert went missing one day before her 16th birthday, never to be seen again. That same year, she began receiving scattered chapters in the mail of a self-help manual, the Guidebook, whose anonymous author promised to make her life soar to heights beyond her wildest dreams.
The Guidebook’s missives have remained a constant in Abi’s life - a befuddling yet oddly comforting voice through her family’s grief over her brother’s disappearance, a move across continents, the devastating dissolution of her marriage, and the new beginning as a single mother and café owner in Sydney.
Now, two decades after receiving those first pages, Abi is invited to an all-expenses paid weekend retreat to learn “the truth” about the Guidebook. It’s an opportunity too intriguing to refuse. If everything is connected, then surely the twin mysteries of the Guidebook and a missing brother must be linked?
What follows is completely the opposite of what Abi expected - but it will lead her on a journey of discovery that will change her life - and enchant listeners. Gravity Is the Thing is a smart, unusual, wickedly funny novel about the search for happiness that will break your heart into a million pieces and put it back together, bigger and better than before.

Betty must find the truth in order to clear her own name—and to find justice for the child she loves.

She’s been in a stable marriage that’s lasted almost three decades and has provided her with two wonderful children and thousands of family dinners around a sturdy oak table.

Story
Clare and Henry have known each other since Clare was six and Henry was 36. They were married when Clare was 23 and Henry was 31. Impossible but true, because Henry is one of the first people diagnosed with Chrono-Displacement Disorder: periodically his genetic clock resets and he finds himself misplaced in time, pulled to moments of emotional gravity from his life, past and future. His disappearances are spontaneous, his experiences unpredictable, alternately harrowing and amusing.

Excellent narrator, okay story
The narrator kept me listening! I'm going to look for more books read by her. Story was alright, at some points very moving or gripping, most of the time didn't seem to go anywhere.

I loved this book!
Excellent example of a contemporary story. Well written, interesting characters and plot(s). And, Aimee’s performance is perfection.
I much prefer Australian and British authors over American authors. So much better.

Uplifting... pun intended
The story is engaging from start to finish. filled with humour, insights, love, and understanding for what we each experience in our days/months/years.
The narrator is simply fabulous. I actually discovered this book seeking books read by her.

Wonderful book, and an exceptional narrator!
I loved every minute of this book - a beautiful story, told with interesting, fun and funny language, and read by Aimee Horne, who is my new favorite narrator. This is one I wanted to keep going on forever - I’ll miss this world! Listen to this one!!

Enchanting and whimsical
I loved this book- it’s something I wouldn’t have chosen for myself but a member of my book club chose it. It started off in a way that made me laugh but I was crying by the end. So beautifully written- unexpected turns and dips. It is well worth the read and I’m so glad I did

The Narration MADE the book!
The book is great, I really enjoyed it, but I'm not sure that I would have stuck with it in print. Aimee Horne is an incredibly talented narrator! She had me laughing every 'page.' The book wanders in a stream-of-consciousness way, very humorously so, but I think I would have grown tired of the meandering if Aimee Horne hadn't made it feel like she was personally telling me her secret, and letting me see inside her twisted, funny observations.

Riveting!
I loved this book from the first word to the last. The narrator was perfection and the story was so compelling, I couldn't stop listening. While there was a lot of humor, there were also so many incredibly thought provoking moments, that I was moved to tears more than once.
