A really interesting read with a sensitive subject handled very well, a lovely story with some great characters, a 5 star read for me
I loved it! It was such a great idea for a book and it pulled me in right away. it was a typical chick lit but a little more entertaining and not as light and fluffy
Interesting premise for this book, I don't recall reading anything else in this style. I didn't warm to Esme, but enjoyed overall
This book was truly about how one hidden secret can lead to the demise of an entire relationship. It was sad and hard to read because the two characters fit each other so well. It was the lack of honesty that broke them but I really wished that Esme would have softened some of her positions as I think they could have made it.
Thank you to Orion and NetGalley.
Esme and Tom have been together for 10 years. She has given him a game to play before their 10 year anniversary. Find 24 significant moments from their relationship - one for each hour of the day.
This was not what I expected. I was amused by the format. It jumps all over the 10 years Esme and Tom have been together. There are a lot of ups. However, there are a lot of downs, which I did not quite expect. I sort of expected the feel good love story, and yes, that's there. However, there are some unexpected down moments. I guess that's to be expected in any relationship. I was more drawn to Tom's character and felt empathetic towards him and his struggles. I did not really like Esme that much. I didn't feel her love for Tom, like I felt Tom's love for Esme. However, I can see why Esme struggled as Tom kept things from her. The mental health aspect was appreciated. All in all, a good read!
