If you like light, frothy, romantic comedies this one is for you. The structure of the book really appealed to me.

This was a fun but thoughtful relationship read about Lucy and Noah who share the most unusual of birthdays as they were both born on February 29th. Told from Lucy’s pov this starts in 2004 when they meet on a day trip and spans twenty years from college, to work, through various relationships and travels abroad. This primarily focuses on where they’re at in their lives each leap year day with snippets covering the intervening years but what’s really nice is that it doesn’t just focus on Lucy and Noah but on their university friends too and how their lives have changed over the years. I like the differences in their attitudes to relationships where Noah is all in but Lucy is wary but most interesting is how the passage of time changes them all. There’s some sad parts and personal struggles but mostly this focuses on the uplifting moments and is a considered but warm-hearted read.
