Summary
Prepare to fall head over heels. The perfect book for fans of Josie Silver, Richard Curtis, and anyone who ever fell in love with the wrong person…
‘Gorgeously festive and romantic’ Rosie Walsh, bestselling author of The Man Who Didn’t Call
What if you couldn’t get away from the one who got away?
This December, unlucky-in-love Jess is following her dream and moving to Notting Hill. On the first night in her new house-share she meets Alex, the guy in the room next door. They don’t kiss under the mistletoe, but there’s still a spark that leaves Jess imagining how they might spend the year together – never mind the house rule against dating…
But when Jess returns from her Christmas holiday, she finds Alex has started seeing Emma, who lives on the floor above them. Now Jess faces a year of bumping into the man of her dreams – and, apparently, the woman of his.
Jess is determined to move on and spend the year falling in love with London, not Alex – but what if her heart has other ideas?

Sweet story
A lovely book and easy listen. The characters are normal people who you can invest in and the narration is lovely too. Would recommend :)

Rather dull
I found this book very dull. Reading the first and last chapter would have told me all I needed to know. I did not warm to the characters or care if they got together or not.
The female narrator had some very dubious accents and the male narrator made the character sound permanently depressed. I felt the need to see it through to the end but needn’t have bothered.

Nice Story
It's a heartfelt story that ended how I wanted it to. There's enough 'will they/won't they' to keep you engaged and not get bored. I thought the male voice artist was great but the female voice artist's accents were a bit crazy at times - then again mine would be horrendous so I can't say much.

stupid story moany protagonist
STupid non romance romance. Male character is simply moaning and keeps shagging flat mate. And moaning. Other flat mate moons over him. Really unrealistic and stupid

An OK read
From the premise of the story, I really thought that I would have loved this, however I found it confusing and ultimately an OK read but it just wasn't for me.
We Met in December" implies that this is a Christmas romance. It's not—each chapter propels the plot into a different week/month of the year, showcasing small vignette-like scenes that kept me from becoming too invested in any one aspect of the character's lives, as the reader is never present in the same place long enough to have any meaningful connections.
Overall We Met in December was a rather quick read but absolutely not a engrossing one. The start of the novel was slow whereas the conclusion of the story felt rushed.
