Dear Reader

Welcome to BookCrossing and thanks for being a part of World Book Night 2011, the largest book giveaway in history. 1,000,000 specially printed copies of 25 different books changed hands on March 5th 2011 and began their journey from reader to reader. This book is one of them. World Book Night has joined with BookCrossing to help track these books as they travel. You can be a part of that journey by making a comment in the book's journal here on BookCrossing.

Read and release!

I thoroughly enjoyed and would highly recommend this book to everyone, male and female and any age group. It is a love story told in a very unique way, with lots of twists and turns. It kept me guessing till the end, as I didn't know how it was going to turn out. It was surprising how many emotions it evoked in me. Simply, it follows the story of Em and Dex, as we catch up with them on the same day, every year, for 20 years. A unique way of telling a story I thought.

I will be handing out my 48 books in a pub in Milton Keynes on World Book Night.

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Catherine, looking forward to this one :D

I absolutely loved this Catherine, thank you so much for passing it onto me :o)

I was absolutely hooked from around 50 pages in when I actually let out a big 'aaaahhhhh' & the story got me making other emotional noises all the way through! It was a really interesting way to tell a story of friendship & love spanning 2 decades. I loved the characters of Em & Dex and enjoyed the political & social references attached to the time frame. As well as being engrossing & moving its a really funny story.

Highly recommended.

Taking along to a meet up with friends in the forest. Will add to the table of books.

Captured at the Salcey Forest mini meet yesterday. Looks interesting - thank you Martha :-)

I enjoyed this, but perhaps didn't engage with it emotionally quite as much as other readers!! I thought that the two main characters were very well drawn and very real. I liked Em but sometimes her lack of confidence was infuriating - probably because its something I recognise in myself! Dex however was a total sh*t and although I know there are people like him in the world I found him very hard to like and have any empathy for him even at the times when our hearts were deliberately being tugged.

Positively there was a lot of humour and some great minor characters and the cultural references were fun, although perhaps I needed to be 10 years younger to really get it!!

The 'One Day' idea is clever although the notion that something significant might happen in the lives of two people on the same date for 20 years is not terribly likely when you think about it.

To be released at Saturday meet up..

Grabbed this book at the BCMKN Meet Up @ the Dolphin Cafe...
