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 .

Stunning performance
I absolutely loved this audiobook - a rare listening experience of getting absolutely enraptured into the story and having to stop everything just to fully concentrate on what was being said. Such a heartbreaking and visceral performance by Emma Appleton - hugely recommend.

Similar to normal people & conversations with friends
Coming of age story with the typical self indulgence of teenage angst which was understandable but as they got older the characters seemed to have stayed the same, when they might have matured and gained insights… but that part wasn’t well developed.

Superb
Some wonderful writing, so good to be inside the heads of Rosie and Will, and in such a balanced way. Wonderful performance as well
