One Day - David Nicholls
Great book. Funny and interesting especially for those of us of a certain 40+ age group. Dexter and Emma hook up at the end of their university days on the 15th July 1988 (St Switherns day, by the way) and remain friends for the next 20 years. The book chronicles both their lives on that same day every year and cleverly depicts context through popular culture, music and some politics of the time. Most of all it is a great yarn, about two people growing up through their 30's and 40's. David has written beautifully and every word is in its place. Loved it!
