I will begin by admitting it did take some time to grow on me, but it got very good very quickly. I don’t want to spoil the plot for anyone, because unfortunately it got spoiled for me and it very much ruined the ending. But I was really surprised at how interesting it was the entire length of the book. I never found myself speed-reading slow chapters or losing interest and putting it down. I literally picked it up and read a few pages every time I had a spare minute, which is a first for me – I prefer to allocate reading time so I can get through whole chapters, stopping mid chapter is a pet hate of mine.

The thing I perhaps love most about this book is that, because each chapter is written on the same day each year (the 15th of July from 1988 to 2007), it really demonstrates how quickly time passes and how much people will inevitably change with it. Yes, everyone says that time goes quickly, but it has never felt truer than while reading ‘One Day’.

I couldn’t relate fantastically to the plot, or even really too much to the characters, but there was something I absolutely loved about this book regardless. I’m yet to pin it down, but for now 4½ stars!
