One Day by David Nicholls September 5, 2010 Mrs Chris Turner 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Sort of a cross between Bridgit Jones's Diary by Helen Fielding and Notting Hill by Richard Curtis.
Liked it immensely, and found it very true to life.
Brilliant, funny, moving. September 4, 2010 FilmFan More than just a 'lad's mag' novel (as the cover and synopsis suggested to me) this is one of the most beautiful, perfect and substantial novels I have ever had the pleasure to read. This book became my life for three days. I have never laughed nor cried as much at any other book. That's saying a lot because I am an avid reader!
This book hasn't just made my top ten, it has made my top three. I have rarely felt so moved by, so amused by, and so part of a story. I am ten years younger than the book's characters, having graduated in 1998, yet so many memories of growing up in this era have been resurrected to razor-sharp reminiscence. Every chapter is a short story in itself, an intricate series of tableaux painted with love, depth, and painstaking detail, and put together they form a masterpiece of our times. Wonderful.
Didn't like it at first, but it really grew on me September 4, 2010 Mrs. S. R. Wray (Belfast) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
At first I didn't like this book - both the characters annoyed me, especially the posh idiot, Dexter, and although I quite liked the lacking-in-self-confidence-but-funny northern lass, Emma, I didn't feel that deep of a connection with her. Perhaps that's how it is in life though, it takes a while to form a connection and years to really know and love a person and as the years (or chapter) passed, I did start to care about both characters and by the end of the book I was genuinely upset (actually I was crying like a colicky baby). The book had some very funny lines as well so I can honestly say, 'It made me laugh, it made me cry.... And at the end of the day, what more can you ask for.
Absolutely loved this book! September 4, 2010 Elisabet 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
