It’s no secret that I love Shari Low’s “One” series of books. Well, they’re not really a series they’re just a set of books that have one in the title and they happen in a single day (or moment, or weekend, or holiday) As you can probably tell by the title this one takes place on New Year’s Eve, or as they call it in Scotland “Hogmanay”.
A lot happens in the 24 hours of this book…people facing their fears, new romances, old romances renewed and lots of drama from all the families. Every single character is likable…I cheered them on and wished that they’d get their happy ending. I loved that we saw some characters from the previous “One” books too.
This is an important New Year’s Eve to everyone involved but all for different reasons. As in all of Shari Low’s books friendship and family feature prominently. Each character has their own chapter from their own point of view and that helped me feel like I knew them. Minnie was my favourite character in the book, I always looked forward to her chapters the most because she was so much like my own grandmother I adored her. The friendship between Ailish, Gwen and Rhonda really touched my heart. They were always there for each other and we’re always brutally honest. They’re the type of friends that kick you in the butt when you need it.
Some parts of this book were sad or made me angry but it was also very humorous at times… and I even felt scared for the characters sometimes. What an amazing feat for a book to make me feel lots of everything all at once.
Looking for an uplifting, yet sad and romantic book? Any of Shari Low’s books would be for you. In her books, you can feel the characters joy and pain and this one was such a lovely read with Shari Low’s trademark relatable characters.
