Hi all! This club will meet one Sunday a month at a restaurant somewhere in Broward or Palm Beach county.

One Day in December: Reese's Book Club: A Novel

Two people. Ten chances. One unforgettable love story.

Laurie is pretty sure love at first sight doesn’t exist anywhere but the movies. But then, through a misted-up bus window one snowy December day, she sees a man who she knows instantly is the one. Their eyes meet, there’s a moment of pure magic . . . and then her bus drives away.

Certain they’re fated to find each other again, Laurie spends a year scanning every bus stop and cafe in London for him. But she doesn’t find him, not when it matters anyway. Instead they “reunite” at a Christmas party, when her best friend, Sarah, giddily introduces her new boyfriend to Laurie. It’s Jack, the man from the bus. It would be.

What follows for Laurie, Sarah, and Jack is ten years of friendship, heartbreak, missed opportunities, roads not taken, and destinies reconsidered. One Day in December is a joyous, heartwarming, and immensely moving love story to escape into and a reminder that fate takes inexplicable turns along the route to happiness.

Great book to listen to in the car. The narrators voices and accents are wonderful and make you feel like they are speaking to you. Girly book that is relatable.

This is an unlike any love story that I have read. I’ve been meaning to read this for long time; I’m not even sure how long it’s been on my TBR pile. This month, the book club that I belong to has choose One Day In December as our book of the month. It didn’t take long into the book where I was glad that this was the book that we had chosen. I’ve read a few books about love at first sight, but none of them compared to this one. To fall in love with someone at the bus stop, and then to search them for a year afterwards? That seemed a little too much and too fast to me; nobody falls in love that quickly. Something about the story captivated me, and it wasn’t long before I fell in love with it. One Day In December is story about friendship and hope as well as love. I adored Sarah and Laurie’s friendship; it reminded me so much of my best friends, the ones that I would give anything to live closer to me. Their friendship represents everything that true friendship entails. A part of me felt that Laurie should have told Sarah right aways when she recognized Jack. Another part of me suspected she was attempting to shield her best friend. I had bad feeling that Sarah would end up getting hurt in the end. If I were asked which of two were my favorite character, I wouldn’t be able to respond because I loved them both. When they got into the fight, I hoped that they would be able to put it past them. Regardless of what was going on in their lives, Sarah and Laurie were always there for one another. Jack. He was a complicated character, and it was difficult for me to like him at times. I didn't like how he treated others, especially after his accident, even though they were only trying to help him. He seemed to be always angry and rude. I tried to like him, but it was difficult when he acted like this. However, it was clear that there was a connection between the two of them, but it seemed like something kept getting in their way, relationships, distance. I was hoping they'd come to their senses and end up together. I liked how the story was told from the perspectives of Laurie and Jack and in different timelines, making it feel more realistic. I felt bad for Oscar because I liked him and liked how the two of them worked together. I have a feeling that if it weren't for his job or if he chose her over his job, they would still be together, or at least that's what I believe. The emotions expressed in this book were genuine, and I felt each one of them. I had to restrain myself from reading any further so that I didn't get too far ahead. I could go on and on about this book. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys romance.
