I overall enjoyed this story and Bethan Roberts' writing style。 As far as a historical fiction novel goes， I did not always feel wholly transported back in time while reading this novel。 There were times when I felt the characters acted more as projections of the author than their own entities。 But I still enjoyed it overall！ I overall enjoyed this story and Bethan Roberts' writing style。 As far as a historical fiction novel goes， I did not always feel wholly transported back in time while reading this novel。 There were times when I felt the characters acted more as projections of the author than their own entities。 But I still enjoyed it overall！ 。。。more

A medio camino entre el entretenimiento por el relato testimonial de dos personajes egoístas y patéticos pero también la indiferencia pura por lo lejano que me resultó empatizar o meterme muy de lleno con la complejidad de sus relaciones。Creo que no es ni la mitad de emocional que debería ser pero admito que se lee rápido。P。 D。: este es el segundo libro que me destripa cruelmente el final de Anna Karenina， así que si alguien pretende leer ese libro que sepa de antemano el spoiler importante que A medio camino entre el entretenimiento por el relato testimonial de dos personajes egoístas y patéticos pero también la indiferencia pura por lo lejano que me resultó empatizar o meterme muy de lleno con la complejidad de sus relaciones。Creo que no es ni la mitad de emocional que debería ser pero admito que se lee rápido。P。 D。: este es el segundo libro que me destripa cruelmente el final de Anna Karenina， así que si alguien pretende leer ese libro que sepa de antemano el spoiler importante que suelta。 。。。more

This book is magnificent a 10 out of 10 with it’s amazing storytelling from beginning to end。 Just the fact that this novel will be coming out to the streaming services within a couple of weeks from now is just incredible。 I for one will be watching it and in hopes the film lives up to the novel （with of course it’s modifications and what nots）。

For the love of all the gods。 The eye-watering was real。I don't cry while reading ok？ Like ever。 I've fought back tears before， but it's a rare occurrence。 I don't think I've ever been so on the verge of crying as I was for this book。 It was so beautiful。 The VERY FIRST thing I want to address is this phrase: gay porn。 I saw it in a couple of reviews for this book and I was surprised。 Said reviews were mostly complaining about how much there is of it。 Of how much GAY PORN there is in this book。 For the love of all the gods。 The eye-watering was real。I don't cry while reading ok？ Like ever。 I've fought back tears before， but it's a rare occurrence。 I don't think I've ever been so on the verge of crying as I was for this book。 It was so beautiful。 The VERY FIRST thing I want to address is this phrase: gay porn。 I saw it in a couple of reviews for this book and I was surprised。 Said reviews were mostly complaining about how much there is of it。 Of how much GAY PORN there is in this book。 To this， I have 2 things to say:1。 What's the problem with gay porn？ Is it about the porn or about the gay or both？ If you don't like smut don't fucking read smut。 Okay， bestie？2。 There is zero smut in this book。 Literally zero。 Not one sex scene。 So。。。 where the fuck is all this gay porn？？？ I would've loved to see it honestly。 It's funny how a deterrent for some can be an incentive for others huh？There are scenes that have the potential to become sexual， but everything is pretty much left to your imagination。 Closed-door romance， if you will。 I’ve read a lot of smutty romance， a lot of MM romance， and believe me， this is nothing。 So， for the angry Karen who's angrily typing away， trying to find something wrong with this book， please find a better excuse。 I'll even help you out 😉:This book needed to be longer。 The ending felt rushed and incomplete。 It didn't affect my enjoyment of the book though。 On the contrary， I was checking how few pages I had left and it gave me anxiety。 I had so many loose ties and ten fucking pages left。 The horror。 I could've used a bit more information about Tom。 During the whole book， he felt like this otherworldly creature rather than a real person。 I would've loved a bit more melodrama as well （and more gay porn）🤣。There。 See？ Easy criticism。 Ok I’ll stop being and angry Karen myself🤣On a serious note though， I think the Tom thing was on purpose。 We only see Tom through the perspective of others。 What other people think of him， how they feel about him， and what they think he wants or feels。 We never know his truth。 He could hate both protagonists for all we know。 I found that simply brilliant。 This book is told in a very clever way。 The back and forth from perspectives and timelines was not tiring。 Even in all that mess， the story was easy to follow。 I loved how it required me to think， how I wasn’t told everything at every given point （which， let's face it， made for a pretty good ending overall）。 I loved how the story starts to fit together slowly， like a puzzle。 The characters’ voices were distinct from each other and I liked both perspectives。 The angst in this book is strong。 So many times I felt a knot in my throat。 Loved it。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 Currently crying my eyes out。 This book was so devastating and it’s so upsetting that every single character ended up being miserable。 I’m so mad at Marion for doing what she did but also mad at Tom for ever even marrying her and putting her through that。 Also I was so upset that Marion didn’t accept Julia and was an awful friend to her when she seemed like a lovely person。 Great book but very tragic ending。 I can’t wait for the movie and to see Harry playing in it！ :’）

This was a good book; really sad。 Definitely not my normal book of choice but I read it for Harry Styles 🫶🏼

Me gustaría poder hablar de este libro muy a fondo sobre todos sus aspectos， pero seré breve porque siento que mis sentimientos no son relevantes。 Estuvo bien， me gustó la escritura y el estilo de narración。 Los personajes bien; son muy complicados y su situación aun peor， aunque también cliché hasta cierto punto。 Para ser una obra dentro del género de ficción literaria le faltó esa pizca de sentimentalismo y dramatismo a algunas partes， y no creo que la autora haya generado un buen balance entr Me gustaría poder hablar de este libro muy a fondo sobre todos sus aspectos， pero seré breve porque siento que mis sentimientos no son relevantes。 Estuvo bien， me gustó la escritura y el estilo de narración。 Los personajes bien; son muy complicados y su situación aun peor， aunque también cliché hasta cierto punto。 Para ser una obra dentro del género de ficción literaria le faltó esa pizca de sentimentalismo y dramatismo a algunas partes， y no creo que la autora haya generado un buen balance entre los dos narradores。 Se notaba a kilómetros que conocía a uno más que al otro， y no la culpo， es medio difícil adentrarse en la piel de algo que claramente no sos。 El clímax de la historia estuvo muy bien planteado， definitivamente fue lo que la salvó de tener un puntaje más bajo。 。。。more

a heart wrenching story but the ending felt unfinished！ i wanted to know more about these characters and the gaps in the timeline felt accidental rather than purposeful。

the events that occur in this book are so moving。 by the time i was done reading i was genuinely astonished and heartbroken。 it was so well written and detailed。 that being said， at some points it was challenging to get through and read because it is lengthier。 but the overall message of this story is great- can’t wait for the movie :）

This felt boring to me。 Not really sure what was so great about Tom’s character， and also didn’t really have a strong liking towards Marion。 Patrick （and his mom） were pretty much the only likable characters。 I saw multiple reviews about sobbing while reading this book and I felt very little emotion during this book。 I also didn’t love the writing style in the way one paragraph was present tense and then the next paragraph was a memory- felt too jumpy and hard to follow along with but that might This felt boring to me。 Not really sure what was so great about Tom’s character， and also didn’t really have a strong liking towards Marion。 Patrick （and his mom） were pretty much the only likable characters。 I saw multiple reviews about sobbing while reading this book and I felt very little emotion during this book。 I also didn’t love the writing style in the way one paragraph was present tense and then the next paragraph was a memory- felt too jumpy and hard to follow along with but that might just be me。 I was really hoping for more after seeing all the reviews and seeing that it’s coming out as a movie （I’ll still definitely go see it for Harry Styles）。 Maybe after seeing the movie I will read it again and enjoy it more。 。。。more
