Before We Were Strangers A Love Story

They are the definition of: Right Person, Wrong Time. Matt and Grace meet at college and within a very short time, strangers become friends, and friends become romantic partners. But time flies, and their lives seem to be playing against them rather than with them. After they meet again years after their breakup, feelings flare up again, and a secret is revealed that may changes everything. The book was advertised to me as "similar to Normal People by Sally Rooney" – I wouldn't agree with that at all, but thematically it follows the same path. However, Matt and Grace's story was much simpler and perhaps a bit more predictable, which I find a bit of a shame. Both characters were super interesting, though, and gave the book a great vibe which I enjoyed reading. A good book for in between, but nothing more than that.
