One day. Most won't consider just one day significant in the course of their life, but for Natasha and Daniel, in less than 24 hours, they lived a life time together.
On the day she and her family are to be deported, Natasha embarks on a last ditch effort to have the order rescinded. That same day, Daniel sets out to attend an interview that will determine whether he will attend Yale. A chance meeting between the two leads them on an odessey.
I was captivated by this tale. It looked as though it was going to follow a particular path, but author Nicola Yoon thew in a couple of twists that kept me on the edge of my seat.
I listened to the unabridged audio book 8 hours 5 minutes. Read by Bahni Turpin, Raymond Lee, and Dominic Hoffman. At first I was a bit put off by the different accents and particularly by the narrator. After leaving fit for a week I started listening once again and the second time, it clicked and I couldn't stop listening. The final chapters I listened to as I was driving to work, and it found me whipping away tears that didn't want to stop. I'm sure I had red eyes as I started my shift.

I'm glad to hear the audio worked - I read it in print and really loved it. And also was wiping away a lot of tears!!
