This story is absolutely breathtaking! An amazing story of love, the passage of time, the way our lives take detours... highly recommended!!
I usually post to Facebook when I'm done reading a book, and people will make suggestions for similar stories. I don't know who suggested this book, but I was not impressed at all. I felt like the first half of the book read: âSo I saidâ. âand then you saidâ, âso I saidâ,âto which you repliedââ¦. So many times I put it down, but picked it up again to see where it was going. It did finally have an outcome. This woman was so obsessed, and maybe it's the love of a lifetime, but it just went on and on and on.
A chance meeting on September 11th intertwines Gabe and Lucy for the rest of their lives. They start a love affair that lasts close to 13 years. Throughout this time you see each character grow as their life unfolds. Unfortunately the reader can tell very early on that something has happened to Gabe as the story plays out as Lucy retelling their history to him. It is a heartbreaker. But I kept myself from sobbing since you know early on that there probably won't be a happy ending. thanks first to read and Netgalley for the galley in exchange for an honest review.
This book kept me engaged the entire time. It was a great read!
