One Day

De: David Nicholls

Narrado por: Anna Bentinck

#1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • Dexter and Emma must face the nature of love and even life itself in this page-turning story filled with "heart-melting romance" (Elle). One of the most "emotionally riveting love stories you’ll ever encounter" (People).

It’s 1988 and Dexter Mayhew and Emma Morley have only just met. But after only one day together, they cannot stop thinking about one another. Over twenty years, snapshots of that relationship are revealed on the same day—July 15th—of each year. Dex and Em face squabbles and fights, hopes and missed opportunities, laughter and tears. And as the true meaning of this one crucial day is revealed, they must come to grips with the nature of love and life itself.

Wholesome & Touching

Very beautiful and well written novel, I have ever read. Watched the Netflix show as well prior to reading. Will revisit ‘One Day’ and read it again, until then I’m passing this book along to friends and family, to feel the emotions I felt while reading. I can’t get enough of it. ♥️

Brilliantly written; superb narrator

Facinating way to lay out a story.

I found the lead characters profoundly difficult to like; yet also compelling. Couldn't put the story down.

Alert: full blown alcoholism on display.

Compelling narrative

Loved the storylines interwoven, character development, and not knowing how it would turn out (even though disappointed in some of the outcomes). Enjoyed it overall

Every ounce is amazing

I didn’t not like anything. This is the best story after Billy summers.
You will not regret getting sucked into this relationship

Enjoyable

This was a great listen because you really feel like you got to know the characters in a deep way. It was a perfect mix of emotions and pace.

Watched show then “read” book

I watched the Netflix series adaptation of this book and it consumed my thoughts for weeks, so much so that I went back and rewatched many of the episodes. I loved it so much I wanted to listen to the book to see how it compared. I was just as consumed by Emma and Dexter listening to the book as I was watching the show. Just a beautiful and tragic love story. The highs and lows of the characters was so real. As an elder millennial (Oregon Trail Generation), I understood the pre internet aspects even though I have lived my teen years and beyond with internet. However, the life experiences are the same. Absolutely loved this book and the Netflix series.

Beautifully intertwined. A heartbreaker with such anticipation from chapter to chapter

An enchanting story, read with such perfect accents, bringing each character to life.. to a point that I was in tears often. I loved these people portrayed and will miss them. Thank you

Just So-So

This book was ok, nothing really special or exciting. I thought the characters were mostly unlikeable. The ending was awful and didn't really fit with the initial vibe of the book. Although this isn't the worst book I've read/listened to I certainly can't recommend it either.

loved this book

What a surprisingly great book! This will be in my list of favorites! With a unique story-line and unexpected turns, you have never read anything like it, I can assure you. At first, I wasn't sure how the jumping feel of the book would feel more than one or two jumps in (taking one day a year for many years), being afraid it would feel a bit like Ground Hog's Day. Pleasantly, though, it is nothing like that, and continues to be fresh throughout. Fun, shallow, deep, heartwarming...all in one.

wow...this book hit me hard and ruined my weekend

I gotta say, i loved this book so much and was affected by it all weekend, but not in an uplifting good way. It isn't a simple "romance" book - it is a powerful view of 2 peoples lives that will linger with you long long long after you finish it...i'm a 42 year old male and i sat in my car after i finished it and fought back the tears.

For those that didn't like the "ending" (although it is about 3/4 of the way through that it really changes) then i would say, look at the story as a whole - look at the way she created a view of lives and the effect of love and friendship...you can't help but admire the story even if you don't agree with the direction the author took it...
