About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Will and Rosie meet as teenagers. They're opposites in every way, but over secret walks home and late-night phone calls they become closer, destined to be one another's great love story.
Until, one day, tragedy strikes and any possibility of them being together shatters.
But that tragedy - and their history - is what will connect them forever...

Slow burn... but stick with it!
Bit of a slow burn... but it really picked up and I became invested in the relationship.
It picked up on the beauty of everyday (dare I say mundane) elements of life.

Loved it
I was going to give this five stars, until I read a review, suggesting the characters perhaps hadn’t developed as they got older, which I thought a valid point.
Nevertheless, I still really enjoyed it. I thought it was beautiful, intelligent and insightful writing, and I really cared about the characters. A well developed story and good narration that more than held my attention and kept me wanting to hear what happened next.

Absolutely beautiful
Such a gorgeous observation on life, relationships, families, loss and the complexities behind them all.
Superbly narrated and wonderfully written, one of my favourites.

Really Good
At first I expected a traditional story formula, boy meets girl soulmate, they face challenges, they get together. However I was pleasantly surprised by the way the story developed and really enjoyed the sincerity and complexity of the messiness which relationships can entail. A great story, thank you.

pretty boring
Was looking forward to the end. Narration was fine but the story was tedious. Over analysing themselves constantly. Just not for me. couldn't stand any of the characters .

Love it love it loved it !
Will they, won’t they. Will they, won’t they - I really enjoyed this book, and although I was hoping for a happy ending, I was never sure it was going to happen. My heart literally ached for Will and Ro and the missed opportunities that life kept throwing at them.

Well written but has the feeling of YA
It’s interesting to see that others agree that this has the distinct feeling of YA fiction. It is well-written in parts but I think generally lacking overall and in need of more detail in fundamental aspects of the plot such as the characters’ initial meeting.

Lovely story, meandering in places
about 80% of this book is gorgeous and 20% is meandering, feels unnecessary and a little dull. Definitely worth a read and not predictable, I was genuinely intrigued throughout to how it would end.
