Publisher's summary

The Light We Lost meets How to Walk Away in this romantic and pause-resisting debut that poses a heartbreaking question: Would you choose love, if you knew how it would end?

"Unique and breathtaking and painful and broken and perfect...just like love. I'm still crying, yet all I want to do is settle down and read it again." (Jodi Picoult)

Joel has sworn off falling in love. But when he meets Callie, he can't help being drawn to her. In Callie, he sees a second chance at life. And in Joel, Callie discovers the kind of love she'd always hoped was real. They challenge each other to take chances, to laugh, and to trust that no matter how hard each falls, the other will be there to catch them. But Joel has a secret. He dreams about the people he loves, and these dreams always come true. One night, Joel has the dream of Callie he's feared the most, and each must decide: Can Callie stay, knowing her fate? And if her days must be numbered, is there a life she is meant to live?

Told in Joel and Callie's voices, The Sight of You is a sweeping, romantic, and unforgettable American debut, about the bravery it takes to love, especially when we think we know how the story will end.

Critic reviews

"Some books rip you apart, even as you are marveling at how beautifully put together they are - The Sight of You is one of these. Holly Miller - with her startling metaphors and finely-etched portrait of a star-crossed relationship - has created a novel that is unique and breathtaking and painful and broken and perfect...just like love. I’m still crying, yet all I want to do is settle down and read it again." (Jodi Picoult, author of A Spark of Light and Small Great Things)

"This book had me in tears. I can’t stop thinking about Callie and Joel and what my choices would be in their circumstances. Beautiful and heartbreaking." (Jill Santopolo, New York Times best-selling author of The Light We Lost and More Than Words)

"With stunningly evocative prose, Holly Miller crafts an enthralling tale that picks up speed as it churns toward its inevitable conclusion. I'm not usually an emotional reader, but this book proved me wrong. The ending is simply perfect. Readers are going to love it." (Tracey Garvis Graves, New York Times best-selling author of The Girl He Used to Know)

Story: 4 Stars!; Audio: 5 Stars!

I enjoyed this one. It was romance with a subtle PNR twist. Romantic, frustrating, heartbreaking, hopeful, and bittersweet. I was prepared, but it still made me cry a little. I didn't feel that it had perfect plotting, but the writing still kept me reading. The title says it's book 1, so I'm curious if this is a connected series or what? Regardless, I liked the writing and will definitely read more by this author.

Slow start but hang in there …

This book almost puts you to sleep at the beginning but is worth waiting for.

Ugh, I dislike sad books!

**Spoiler**


The performance of the narrators was wonderful and I enjoyed the storytelling, however, when there's no HEA- I'm severely bummed!! Ugh, it's the worst! Such a beautiful story of 2 people coming together, starting a life together, loving each other deeply. Then next thing I knew, they're broken up and she's married and having kids with someone else! What the?!?! Nope, this was unpleasant and I'd like to get my 15 hours back!

Oh my heart!

This is not my usual type of book! But it was beautiful! I loved the story and although in my heart I wished for a HEA, I still had my doubts. Beautiful love story!!
