THE NEXT CAPTIVATING NOVEL FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF ONE DAY IN DECEMBER

Two Lives. Two Loves. One Impossible Choice.

Lydia and Freddie. Freddie and Lydia. They've been together for almost a decade, and Lydia thinks their love is indestructible.

But she's wrong. Because on her 27th birthday, Freddie dies in a tragic accident.

So now it's just Lydia, and all she wants to do is hide indoors and sob 'til her eyes fall out. But Lydia knows that Freddie would want her to live her life well. So, enlisting the help of his best friend and her sister Elle, she takes her first tentative steps into the world and starts to live - perhaps even to love - again.

Then something unbelievable happens, and Lydia gets another chance at her old life with Freddie. But what if there's someone in her new life who wants her to stay?

A heart-breaking, uplifting story for fans of PS I Love You and Jojo Moyes, this gorgeously romantic novel will make you laugh, cry and remind you of what a wonderful gift it is to love and to be loved.

Critic Reviews

I read THE TWO LIVES OF LYDIA BIRD in a single sitting - crying, laughing, and rooting for the heroine, who reminds us that the people we love - and the people we lose - change us, and that who we are at the beginning of our story is never who we are at the end of it. What a beautiful, emotional gift Josie Silver has given us (Jodi Picoult, author of SMALL GREAT THINGS)
Heartbreakingly beautiful, butterfly-inducing and laugh out loud funny - you've never read a love triangle like this before! (Paige Toon, author of FIVE YEARS FROM NOW)
Original, emotional and utterly absorbing. I couldn't put it down (Heidi Swain, author of THE CHRISTMAS WISHLIST)

Amazing

TL;DR This book is amazing and intense. it's filled with lots of emotions, especially hope and love. I highly recommend it.

I loved the writing in One Day in December which is why I tried this book out. Josie Silver's ability to capture the intensity and complexity of the emotions and experiences of her characters always leaves me awestruck. This book is like a piece of her heart and honestly felt like a piece of mine too. It is warm and rich and full of grief and love (of all kinds). I loved the story and characters and the narration completely did it justice. Fair warning though, if you cry often you might want to plan your listening so that you have space to cry along in peace!
