The Sight of You: An unforgettable love story and Richard & Judy Book Club pick

Product Information

A very emotional story that asks an interesting question. How would you live your life if you knew what would happen to your loved ones? It made me feel every emotion. I would recommend this book over and over and over again. The concept is new and original although I thought I may personally find it a bit cheesy - but I did not. It was just incredible. You may have had a very difficult day and are eager to get some sleep, but I just wanted you to know that I love you beyond everything. You can rely on me, sweetheart. Good night! Although the plot doesn’t explore that alley, I couldn't resist letting these questions hang in the air… Your love for me keeps my heart from falling apart. On a bad day, you are the one who can make me the happiest. I never believed in love until I met you. I wish I could be with you holding you tight while you fall asleep. Good night, sweetheart. Have a sound sleep.

We then find out what Joel's secret is. I personally did not want to know in advance what it was (but it is listed in the book blurb). But it has to do with dreams. The day I will get to wake up next to you will be one of my dreams come true. I want to love you till the last day of my life. Good night, my princess. Your sweet voice and the beauty of your smile keep me warm every night when I go. I cherish every second we spend together because you are my fantasy come true. Good night, the queen who rules my heart! As the day turns into night, keep your worries out of sight. Close your eyes and go to sleep, for all the good times are yours to keep. Sweetest dreams!What an astonishing book. I just loved it.

You have no idea how your sweet words and smile brightened my day. After being with you all day long, I still can’t stop thinking about you! Sleep well, my dear! Narrated in the first person with chapters which alternate between Joel and Callie the story conveys both characters empathy, resilience and compassion in the face of extraordinarily testing circumstances. Despite not being a fan of love stories this one had rather more depth to it than usual and the characters actually felt like they had a meaningful connection and convincing rapport. The only enjoyable part of my busy, frantic day today is talking to you. Only you could lower my burden and put a smile on my tired face. I miss you terribly. Good night, my love. The Sight of You is a moving story of love and sacrifice. It’s a beautiful, well-written book where tears are unavoidable. If you don’t mind getting all weepy at the end of a book, I recommend you go on this journey of two people who have finally found true love but know that it is going to end. Joel meets Callie in the cafe she works in and they are instantly attracted to each other. Joel is scared to get involved with anyone as he has dreams about his loved ones that come true. Joel cannot fight his attraction with Callie and they start dating.

My life will become complete when every night ends with us cuddling together. May your dreams be wonderful, dear. I love you so much. Joel is not a Spider-Man because he doesn't crawl like a Spider. Since he’s not large nor particularly muscled he’s no Iron-Man either ... When Joel meets Callie, there is an immediate attraction he tries to resist as Joel fears that if he falls in love, he may dream of something tragic about Callie. Which is exactly what happens. So if you know something bad is going to happen to the person you love, can you stay together and make the best of things even if you are on borrowed time? Joel is heartbroken as he knows her fate. Callie doesn’t want to know what is to come. Would you? Joel our main character is a dreamer, but he only dreams about people he knows and loves. Because Joel is special, he can see into the future with his dreams, he becomes a little bit of a recluse because of this. Knowing he cannot change his dreams in real life he doesn't want to risk love anymore. Joel doesn't want to see the future of someone he loves so he avoids people at all costs.
