children when their parents fall in love, but soon they are forced worlds apart.
Five years later, they find each other. Their bond is rekindled and new
feelings take hold, but once again they must separate.
For the next two decades, fate brings Nell and Van together every five years,
as life and circumstance continue to divide them. Will they ever find true
happiness? And will it be together?
‘One day, maybe five years
from now, you’ll look back and understand why this happened…’
My review
Paige Toon does it again!
What a fantastic book, if I was a crier at
books this one would be one that would of gotten me going, such a great, tender
story of how life is.
I could not put this book down, I hate
stopping in the middle of chapters which meant for me just sitting and reading,
taking little breaks for house work, adulting is a lot less fun than reading.
The characters were great and you really
felt like you got to know them and that you were an integral part of their life
all the way through. I liked how the book started and also how it was in 5 year
age gaps, but it didn’t miss out what had happened in those gaps which I
thought was very clever on Paige’s thinking.
I do love Paige’s books anyway, but I have
to say that this one seemed a bit more in depth than some of the others, a real
tug on the heart strings. It made me happy and sad, and just eager to know
more, I just wanted to keep going and find out what happened. I read this book
in a day, which is something I never do unless I am on holiday so it must have
been a really cracking book for me to do this.
Perfect if you want to dive in and escape to
Nell and Van’s world and not leave until you know everything.
5 big fat stars! I LOVED IT
