Undemanding but affecting July 29, 2010 Louise I bought this after reading an interview with David Nicholls and was glad I did. It was an easy read and I finished it quickly but I found it funny, moving and very affecting. This may be due to the fact that I myself am a similar age to the couple in the book and met my husband at university so the influences are personal. My daughters did not have the same interest in it.
I had definite images in my head for all the characters and can very much see this as a film in the very near future. I would recommend 'One Day'and have bought it for friends. It is hilarious and tragic in turns and although a cliche; I laughed out loud and cried real tears...and I'm an old cynic.
Loved it! July 28, 2010 D Rid At first I wasn't completely sure on the concept of just a day of each year for each chapter, but after a few chapters and I couldn't put it down. I absolutely loved it and have recommended it to everyone. Its a really easy and brilliant read.
If it's good enough for Deidre...... July 28, 2010 Mrs. S. West (UK) I have never read this book....however I noticed Deidre Barlow reading it and explaining the plot to someone in a recent episode of Coronation Street!
Amazing book July 27, 2010 Ms. I. Nwosu (London) This is one of the most gripping books I have read in a very long time. The way the story is told by the main two characters allows you to gradually feel what they are feeling, throughout the highs and lows of the book. Witty, clever, and very well written. Definitely one I would recommend to anyone.
Touching July 27, 2010 Keen reader 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I don't know if I'll read another book like this. I don't normally write reviews, but I felt I had to write and recommend this book to all who are considering reading it. I finished it yesterday and am still thinking about the story and the characters today, as well as that one page which shocks everyone who reads it. It is only the second book I have cried in, but my envolvement with the characters, their lives and the eventual outcome of their lives was so strong I couldn't help but feel emotional. Read it - it's just brilliant.
