Wonderful . . . compassionate and unpredictable
Oh how I loved this book [...] complex, imperfect, totally loveable and completely unforgettable
I loved this original, at times painful but truly thought-provoking book. A triumph
Sometimes a book comes along and really does make you think... This engaging read is both heart-breaking and full of hope
Touching, beautifully compassionate and warm; this is a lovely book, sometimes heart-wrenching, sometimes funny. Perfect to curl up with and well worth a read
Clever and engaging read. Heartbreaking and hopeful, this book is a keeper
Saturdays at Noon is one of those rare books that make you see the world in a different way... This is a satisfying, big-hearted book and a truly accomplished debut for Rachel Marks
A sweet tale about second chances. Moving
It's a beautiful love story, but not the one that you'd expect. Wonderful, hopeful and insightful. This book is an absolute gem and you'll find yourself willing Emily to get her happy ending
A heartbreaking, funny and emotive read
