I enjoyed this book and blew through it in 2 days.
I was really looking forward to reading this as the description was so good and it certainly didn’t disappoint me at all from the first page I was hooked and just wanted to read more to see what was going to happen.
Such a cute read! I really enjoyed the characters and the story!
A feel-good rom-com all the way around.
The romance developing between Millie and Joe is heartwarming.
Wonderful and entertaining this is a great one.

I received an ARC of, Meet Me on Platform 3, by Zara Stoneley. Millie is going through a hard time after the death of her dad, until she meets Joe at platform 3, will they be a match made in heaven, or do opposites not attract?

I really tried my best with Meet Me on Platform 3, but unfortunately it wasn’t my cup of tea. I struggled a lot to get through some chapters that almost only contained train of thoughts that weren’t driving the plot. The pacing was too slow for me and the dialogues felt off. Some of the dialogues just didn’t seem to go anywhere, but that’s probably because Meet Me on Platform 3 wanted to address too many issues. It had some interesting ideas (such as sharing everything online versus keeping things private, changing family dynamics due to loss, finding your way in work and life) but the execution didn’t match the potential. But seeing other readers’ raving reviews, I guess I’m the odd one out.

Millie loves her city life, her city friends and writing her true(ish) confessions column but she’s starting to wonder if the grass really is greener on the other side, or if her heart really belongs back in Northumberland, with her mum who is struggling after the death of Millie’s dad.
Joe is happy doing what he does, writing games. He could do it anywhere, but since leaving home he’s lived believing that looking back means you’ve failed, and life is about taking chances and seeing the world.
So when the two meet up surely it can never work, their lives are moving in opposite directions. On different tracks…
Really enjoyable read totally recommend

A simple story of meeting the love of your life, fate and how to overcome obstacles in your way. This story covers a few issues which most people experience in their life: love, death, family, career. The book leaves you with that feel good feeling and optimism and hope.

I’m going to be honest and say that the mention of Northumberland in the description was the main reason I gave this book a go (I’m from the north east but don’t currently live there and I guess I was just feeling a little homesick).
This follows Millie and Joe, 2 northerners who live in London, who have a few coincidental meetings at Kings Cross before Millie starts writing about their encounters for her column, and they start intentionally using the commute to get to know each other.
I just found the whole thing a bit bland. It’s very sweet but almost sickeningly so. The main thing that I think put me off is that the characters have very similar personalities which in the end made me feel like I was reading the same thing twice. One character would agonise over something and the other would spend the next chapter doing the same and I just got bored.

Told through two people who meet at Kings Cross train Station. It is set between Northumberland and London .You had to concentrate so you knew whose chapter it was. It was a story of falling in love, getting over the death of a parent, dealing with country over city, A very clever story and a good ending . I loved it.
