THE LOVE STORY OF THE YEAR

Sunday Times

Dolly Alderton
'It makes you want to tell someone - anyone - that you love or care about them'
Independent
Sometimes you need to get lost to find your way...
Marnie is stuck.
Stuck working alone in her London flat, stuck battling the long afternoons and a life that often feels like it's passing her by.
Michael is coming undone.
Reeling from his wife's departure, increasingly reclusive, taking himself on long, solitary walks across the moors and fells.
When a persistent mutual friend and some very English weather conspire to bring them together, Marnie and Michael suddenly find themselves alone on the most epic of walks and on the precipice of a new friendship.
But can they survive the journey?

I think I’ll need a break from reading for a couple of days as Marnie and Michael have filled my heart and there just isn’t room for more yet!
Marnie and Michael are of course the lead characters in this new novel by David Nicholls. In their late 30s / early 40s they nestle perfectly in the middle of One Day and Us. They meet on a short walking holiday as part of a group organised by a mutual friend. Both are lonely after painful marriage collapses and neither really wants to be there, happy they think in their single lives. Except on a path up in the hills with no other distractions you get to learn a lot about another person and maybe, just maybe you can see a way to be happy with someone again. The course of true love never runs smoothly though with David Nicholls…. BUt this is full of humour, laughter, great characters, totally relatable and it never ever disappoints. Loved.
