Turn the Page :: Tuesday

Last month I read a really good book, at the recommendation of Misa, aka Ms. Craftivore.

A very unique (and oftentimes very funny) love story, One Day centers around Dexter and Emma and follows them throughout their 20's and 30's as they come together and apart and together again. What I liked best about the book was the pacing; each chapter takes place on the same day of each year for 20 years. It is through the lens of these snapshots in time that we get to really know Dex and Em; all said, it was quite fun to go along with them as they traversed their way through this thing we call life, messy and complicated and bizarre as it sometimes is.

Two big thumbs up from me for this book...and next year the film version will be released, which I will for sure go and see:

Have a super day, and for more TTPT go here. Ta-ta for now!

This books sounds like it's right up my alley. I will be checking this one out (of the library, of course). And finally, a movie I can look forward to. Nothing's been appealling lately -- so there is some hope.

Sounds like a fun read. I think I would enjoy the 20 year snapshots as well. By the way, I LOVE your new knit in the post below. Beautiful job!

So glad you liked it! Thanks for the props. I didn't know it's already being made into a movie, you sleuth.
