A review by bethniamh
Out of Love by Hazel Hayes

The structure of this book, working backwards through a relationship from its breakup to its beginnings, was really interesting; I liked that chapters linked back to a detail mentioned in the previous section. This book reminded me a little of Homesick, which I read the previous month; the characters weren't as likeable, however. This was well-written though, and I got through it very quickly. The true centre of the story was the relationship between the main character and her mother, which was arguably better portrayed than that between the main character and Theo. The definition of bittersweet.
