Summary
Would you choose a different life if you had the chance?
Two people. One chance to turn back the clock.
The unforgettable new novel from the author of The Songs of Us. If you love Cecilia Ahern and Holly Miller, you'll adore this heartwarming novel.
On the last night in October 1999, the clocks went back, and Ella and Will's love began.
A teenage Ella sat around a bonfire drinking with her future husband and her oldest friend, Cole. As Ella wandered away from the group, she found herself leaning against a derelict archway before passing out. The next day, Ella remembered fractured images of a conversation with a woman in a green coat and red scarf but dismissed it as a drunken dream.
Twenty-three years later, with her marriage to Will in trouble, and Cole spiralling out of control, Ella opens a gift which turns her life upside down: a green coat and red scarf. When she looks in the mirror, the woman from the archway is reflected back at her.
As the last Sunday in October arrives, Ella is faced with a choice.
Would she choose a different life, if she could do it again?

Wonderful
Wasn’t expecting this book to be as good as it was. Such a wonderful book about love and friendship which kept me listening to ‘just one more chapter’. The narration was also great , Highly recommended.

Hooked from page 1
I loved this story and was hooked from beginning to end. I listened to the whole thing in a day as I couldn’t put it down.
Ella is such a loveable character from the start and the narrator did a great job.
I loved the “then” and “now” timelines and also the dual point of view from both Ella and Will.
I can’t wait to read more from this Author 💕

Couldn't keep up with the zigzag timeline
The characters and the overall plot were good but it seemed more like a draft than a finished novel. It felt overlong and I found it irritating how it switched timlines so often - usually when I was just settling in to the part that I was reading. Also there were so many highly dramatic reveals that it got a bit overwhelming - to the point where I just thought "here we go again" at the unexpected ending twist.

Glad I persevered
I listened to the first, maybe 6, chapters and seriously couldn’t keep up with who was who or what was going on … I nearly gave up as it wasn’t grabbing me but I’m so glad I persevered as I ended up loving Ella’s character … great sense of humour and brilliantly delivered lines by the narrator … Will however was painful! Narration meant he had a permanently pained voice throughout - thank the lord for the other characters as, without them, he would’ve had you reaching for a blunt butter knife to hack at your wrists! Jeez, alcoholic or not, give me Cole any day of the week! Anyway bottom line is I enjoyed it (more because of the characters than the story perse), will be listening to more by the author 👍
