Nice review.
I really loved reading the book. I especially like the fact that they kept bumping into each other at their lowest points in life.
Well done

Thank you for the great review! I also recently read this book and absolutely loved it! The love that Jonathan and Marion share is so sweet and pure that it was impossible to not fall in love with them. You're right, the author does do a great job in describing the settings (sometimes a bit much, lol), but the story was so beautiful that it didn't even matter. Great job on the review!

Amazing review!! I just started finding more reviews on this wonderful book on here today. I read the original review, but didn't realize more people were starting to read and review this great find! I've read the book twice now, and LOVE it! You completely captured all the great aspects of this novel: Emotions, location references, twists, and the title. I hope more people stumble their way on to your review. It inspires people to discover a gem read! And yes, please, someone make this a movie! It would be better than The Notebook!
