Lynn reviewed One Day by Gene Weingarten
Review of 'One Day' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
I liked the concept of this book, but in practice it required a lot of pages devoted to “the rest of the story”, sometimes covering ten or twenty years before the day in question and three decades after. Still, it’s hard to see how any of the events covered on the single day chosen would have made sense without background and follow up. The final chapter tied it all up well, bringing back into focus the people readers had met and the events in which they were involved.
