One Day in December by Josie Silver
2.0

Genuinely confused by how I feel about this book. It started off so strong- there was intrigue and I loved the characters. But after about 80 pages, I had to force myself to sit down and keep reading. I like the way it was organized by each year and took us through Laurie’s twenties, but her moving abroad and then Jack getting in an accident, and then her getting married and her dad dying, while he moved to Edinburgh was just too!! much!!! This book could’ve been half as long and still told an effective will they/won’t they, decade long love story. Also, Jack kinda becomes an ass and it was incredibly hard to find him redeemable after the things he says to Sarah and Laurie. The only really interesting relationship in this story was Sarah and Laurie’s friendship.
