Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Will and Rosie meet as teenagers. They're opposites in every way, but over secret walks home and late-night phone calls they become closer, destined to be one another's great love story.
Until, one day, tragedy strikes and any possibility of them being together shatters.
But that tragedy - and their history - is what will connect them forever...

Loved it
I was going to give this five stars, until I read a review, suggesting the characters perhaps hadn’t developed as they got older, which I thought a valid point.
Nevertheless, I still really enjoyed it. I thought it was beautiful, intelligent and insightful writing, and I really cared about the characters. A well developed story and good narration that more than held my attention and kept me wanting to hear what happened next.

Absolutely beautiful
Such a gorgeous observation on life, relationships, families, loss and the complexities behind them all.
Superbly narrated and wonderfully written, one of my favourites.

Really Good
At first I expected a traditional story formula, boy meets girl soulmate, they face challenges, they get together. However I was pleasantly surprised by the way the story developed and really enjoyed the sincerity and complexity of the messiness which relationships can entail. A great story, thank you.

pretty boring
Was looking forward to the end. Narration was fine but the story was tedious. Over analysing themselves constantly. Just not for me. couldn't stand any of the characters .

Well written but has the feeling of YA
It’s interesting to see that others agree that this has the distinct feeling of YA fiction. It is well-written in parts but I think generally lacking overall and in need of more detail in fundamental aspects of the plot such as the characters’ initial meeting.

Lovely story, meandering in places
about 80% of this book is gorgeous and 20% is meandering, feels unnecessary and a little dull. Definitely worth a read and not predictable, I was genuinely intrigued throughout to how it would end.

Beautiful written, beautifully narrated
Couldn’t help but feel all the emotions they felt. For anyone that loved the intensity of Normal People you will fall in love with this. The narration was perfection.

lovely love story
I finish this book within 2 days! Good summer reading choice. Beautiful performance!
The story itself a bit predictable and definitely the first chapters were like the plot from "Normal people" but overall lovely, tender , difficult love story... would read it again !

Stunning performance
I absolutely loved this audiobook - a rare listening experience of getting absolutely enraptured into the story and having to stop everything just to fully concentrate on what was being said. Such a heartbreaking and visceral performance by Emma Appleton - hugely recommend.
