Thoroughly enjoyed this read - what I thought was going to be a lighthearted romcom ended up being an exploration of human psychology and of resilience. Seeing Eleanor's view of the world, especially as she starts to remember the full gamut of emotions, is refreshing and relatable.

Although it deals with hard issues, I really enjoy d getting to know Eleanor and Raymond. Language. Audio is great with the Scottish accents.

My heart is absolutely BURSTING because of this book. Hilarious (I laughed out loud many times), touching, sad, but such a sweet story. I want to own this and also rate it more than 5 stars!

Wow wasn’t expecting the story to be so heartbreaking! I really grew to love Eleanor and Raymond despite being pretty indifferent towards them in the beginning.
