One Day, admittedly took me ages to get into. At the start, I lacked interest and the whole time frame confused me a little bit. But one day (HA HA puns) I decided to give the book another chance, I read from where I had left and well, I could not stop reading! I'm usually no softie when it comes to...
I liked the premise on this one. It follows two people for 17 years (1988-2005), letting the reader see snapshots of their lives on 7/15 for each of these years. Sometimes they are together, sometimes they are apart, sometimes they are friends, sometimes they have not spoken in years. Overall it ...
This is a sweet, sometimes bittersweet at times, book. I like that this book is realistic about life and love at times. Dexter and Emma aren’t quite in love at first sight, though they both have a soft spot for the other. Over fifteen years, they have room to grow. They do different things, take wil...
It's been a month since I finished this book. I put it down and decided not to review it until I processed a bit. However, a month later, I still have mixed feelings about it.I still think the characters could've been better developed. I didn't feel like I had a good grasp one what kind of person...

Probably the rather well designed cover - I thought it might have been about chess.The story centred around a couple of new graduates, Emma and Dex...
There were areas where I fell bored and a bit, well, it dragged, but when it was great, it was beautiful, caring, a soft, romantic, real boy meets girl, cancelling out the draggy bits completely. I was happy, then annoyed, then angry, then happy, then by the end, in complete and utter tears. Most de...
I'd seen the movie before reading this book so I knew what was going to happen, but geez, it's still a punch in the gut. Here's a story that follows two people on this one day each year for twenty years, so of course you can't help but get invested in the characters.Mind you, neither Emma or Dexter ...
If this was written by a woman it would be classified as Chicklit. I like the concept of revisiting the protagonists on the same date each year, but this novel has failed to live up to my expectations.
