The Day We Meet Again by Miranda Dickinson
1.0
DNF at 24%.
I liked the premise of this novel. Two people on the cusp of their own big adventure/voyage of self-discovery meet at St Pancras train station and strike up a conversation. Unbelievably they fall in love but decide to let fate decide, they will each go on their separate adventures and, if it was meant to be, they will meet again in 12 months time at the same place.
For me, the trouble was that I just didn't buy into the insta-lurve between Sam and Phoebe, I didn't really warm to either character or their romance and switching between two characters didn't really make for a cohesive reading experience. Having stopped and started the book twice I've regretfully decided it's not for me, no point in forcing myself to read a book if I'm not engaged.
I received a free copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
