Goodreads Synopsis: Two people. Ten chances. One unforgettable love story. Laurie is pretty sure love at first sight doesn't exist anywhere but the movies. But then, through a misted-up bus window one snowy December day, she sees a man who she knows instantly is the one. Their eyes meet, there's a moment of pure magic... and then her bus drives away. Certain they're fated to find each other again, Laurie spends a year scanning every bus stop and cafe in London for him. But she doesn't find him, not when it matters anyway. Instead they "reunite" at a Christmas party, when her best friend Sarah giddily introduces her new boyfriend to Laurie. It's Jack, the man from the bus. It would be. What follows for Laurie, Sarah and Jack is ten years of friendship, heartbreak, missed opportunities, roads not taken, and destinies reconsidered. One Day in December is a joyous, heartwarming and immensely moving love story to escape into and a reminder that fate takes inexplicable turns along the route to happiness. One Day in December by Josie Silver | Goodreads What a charming story that took me on a roller coaster of emotions. The characters were relatable, unique, and interesting. Typically I like books written from multiple points of view and this one was no different. I enjoyed seeing the interactions and individual storylines of the 3 main characters from each of their perspectives, but at times I felt a bit of whiplash from jumping from perspective to perspective so quickly and suddenly. I also loved the way Silver wrapped up the story without giving us too many "after" details which lets us as readers speculate about where the characters lives could have gone afterwards. 4 Stars!
