Where to start? I was really looking forward to reading this book. I imagined it to be a cute let's travel Europe together-story with loveable characters and a Lovestory to die for. Well ... The problem is that the whole plot didn't get me. Our heroine - Allyson - meets the guy of her dreams and agrees on spending one day in Paris with him. So far so good. But then, things got boring. I was really, really annoyed by Allyson, her falling in love with Willem right away and with her inability to life the moment and to not plan her travels way too detailed (i share more of Willem's way of thinking and planning doesn't do shit because travelling is full of adventures, mistakes and fate). I didn't like that most of the booking took place in Boston because I thought - as I already mentioned - that it would be a roadtrip-trough-Europe-book. The majority of this book was Ally whining and not being able to try to find Willem. Ahrg! (Plus why was everyone in this book so amazed by the Paris-Story? Stuff like this happens all the time. People find and loose each other all. the. time. Don't make a fuss). The writing style and story telling was so boring that I actually skipped some pages towards the end and even though the book ends with kind of a cliffhanger, I have absolutely no intention to go and read Willem's story. No. way. Just one Day is easily one of the worst books I've read all year. Well done. (there were so many unnecessary characters, by the way. Why introduce them if they never ever appear again? Gosh!)
