I didn't like this book. I wanted to. there were so many interesting points. and yes, I guess the book is pretty close to real life because opportunities are missed and bad choices are made. but I just didn't like the book. the only character I liked was Rory, and he's such a small part.

Slow start but loved the story

A touching look at love gained, lost, never forgotten, and found again. It was an easy read, but also a lovely read, not too fluffy, but not too heavy.

I highly recommend this book. It was one of the better books I had read in a while. I found myself loving the characters. A long ago love story unfolding while a present day love story is also coming into light. It was fun to read about the women and my how times have changed. :) Great book all the way to the last page!!

Well, this hurts.

Like most of Jojo Moyes books, this is a great romance novel waiting to shatter your heart. It is an easy read and I enjoyed the pacing and layering of the story.

The only drawback for me was Ellis relationship, I get the message but I wasn’t as drawn to them as I was to Jenn and Anthony’s relationship.

This is the perfect summer read and its the equivalent for a Cheesy-Romcom in a book. If you love any of those things, you will love this book.
