I really wanted to love this book and the first third was hugely promising. However, it just became a little bit too predictable and a ltitle too frivolous for me and I found myself racing through the last few chapters,

Absolutely lovely, a perfect read for all season. It'll warm you up with fuzzy feelings in the winter months, and it's a definite beach bestseller!

I absolutely loved this book! It’s such a sweet, beautiful story that will have you hooked straightaway. I couldn’t wait to find out what would happen to all the characters in the book.
This will definitely be a standout of 2019 and one that I would recommend strongly.

An overall lovely, quirky and colourful novel; although the plot is hardly relatable, the characters definitely are. It isn't a page turner or a tear jerker, but the storyline is amusing enough for a snatched holiday read or a commute.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I was shocked at how long it was when I first started to read, but it soon had me hooked. The two main characters narrate the story, but each has their own style of story writing/telling, almost as if two people had written the book. All the characters were believable and were well described. This book covered so many genres, but ultimately it is chic lit. The only minor fault is that I would have liked to have known what happened to the other characters. I would recommend this book to anyone with time on their hands because you won’t want to put it down.

Couldn't put the book down as was desperately trying to find out what would happen next to Leon and Tisha. Beautiful story and made me feel all warm in my heart as it reminds me the story of me and my husband. Beautiful book, beautiful characters...

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. It touches all one's emotions throughout it's telling and is utterly delightful with well drawn, on the whole, likeable characters who evoke empathy. I loved the whole idea of the flat share having bought a 3-bed house sometime ago which had been shared by at least 12 cabin crew (before the landlord sold) who were on different rotas and left behind an eclectic collection of belongings, including several discarded 'notes'.

The story flowed well and was an easy well written read with plenty of uplifting and feel good factors along the way. The first person dialogue is split between the two main characters which is clearly set out at the start of each chapter who it is and then goes to record the dialogue with no unnecessary padding and overuse of adverbs.

A delight to read and book to transport one away from the mundane.

I was excited to read this book after seeing it in so many 2019 preview articles. I did enjoy the book, but possibly not as much as I expected to - I think because I found the initial set-up/premise a bit too contrived/unbelievable, and the scene on the beach at the end was just too much. Once I'd gotten over that, I really believed in their love story and found it so powerful that I even shed a tear or two. A lovely read by an author I'm excited to see more from

The Flatshare is absolutely adorable! Hilarious, sexy, smart and real, everyone will be reading it, guaranteed. I loved it.

The Flatshare by Beth O’Leary a five-star read that you won’t want to share. I don’t know where to start with this review as the first time I tried picking this read up I put it down after a couple of chapters, but then someone was raving about it and I though eughh I will give it a go, I hate not finishing anything. What can I say other than I’m so glad I did, I loved it. There was something so heart-warming about this one, I adored Leon and his passion for his patients. The descriptions and secondary characters were great and the story from Tiffy and her struggle she has a job she loves but doesn’t pay her enough and an ex that she just can’t or won’t quit. The main think I adored about this story though were the post-It notes just the simple way of communicating was sweet and dramatic at the same time. This will definitely be one of those reads that will stay with you for a long time, if like me you don’t get sucked in, in the first couple of chapters keep going as I promise you, you won’t be disappointed.

This book is written in such a ya that as a reader I could relat to what the characters were going through. Beth O’Leary has written this in such a way that it gives you every emotion on the page.
Makes you smile, laugh, heartfelt. There is also a fluidity to the writing and story.
Thank you to both NetGalley and Quercus Books for my eARC of this book in exchange for my honest unbiased review

Lovely book, so easy to get into and the characters are all interesting and the storyline fun and informative and just a really lovely book

This is an absolute gem of a book. Starts out as an amusing yet realistic portrayal of the grim realities of property rental. It gradually morphs into a tale of two people who are trying to find their place in the world and deal with the difficulties that life has thrown at them. For Tiffy, a publishing assistant, it's finding somewhere to live after breaking up with her longterm boyfriend Justin. And for Leon, a palliative care nurse, it''s about finding some extra cash to pay for his brother's lawyer. But they don't meet despite sharing a flat, so the book is played out through a series of notes, which reveal insights into their characters and their trials and tribulations.

It's a beautiful yet raw book that displays emotions and provides insights into every day agonies. It's really something special and will be the sensation of 2019!! I wish it every success and it's a well deserved 5* from me.

LOVED THIS BOOK! The premise is so original and I completely fell in love with the characters. This book was absolutely beautiful and I will be recommending it far and wide. Thank you NetGalley.

I recieved this via Netgalley and thought it was a good read. The characters are everyday people that I felt I could relate too, such a great storyline and plot. It had me laughing and crying! A very uplifting book with lots of charm and romance. A great book to kick off 2019 with.

This book was absolutely delightful and I loved every minute of it. It was really original and imaginative – I'd never read anything like it! and the characters felt real and funny. The author has written a very clever book, with different voices and styles. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I really could not stop laughing!

Hilarious, absolutely lovely, heart warming book. I loved it didn’t want it to end! Would reccomend this to anyone.

This was just an absolutely lovely and heartwarming read. It was sweet, it was cute, it was funny. The writing felt like it just flowed effortlessly.

I couldn't wait for our main characters to meet, and when they did I couldn't put the book down. Nor could I form much in the way of coherent thought in regards to reviewing.

I really like that author put effort into making Leon's narrative voice so different from Tiffy's. It's a small thing, not having the pronouns but it makes him stand apart from Tiffy just at a brief glance, plus it's not too distracting. I write like it too some days, when I'm in the mood to be short and to the point!

Our main characters were never annoying or dumb like some romance characters can be. They were both really relatable. I completely felt for Tiffy when she started having flashbacks and triggers. Very glad the gaslighting was discussed - it's easy to say her previous relationship was crappy and write it off, but having it carry over into her new relationship and have her work through it with therapy was realistic and a hopeful message to send to anyone going through something similar.

I absolutely loved this book. I'd describe it as being in the Chicklit category with a romcom element to it. Predictable in parts but it was a great Christmas season read.

Basically about a man and woman who share a room albeit at different times. I wondered if the author had seen the excellent film 'Dirty Pretty Things' because this had the same premise except on a serious note.

The book shows how their life unfolds over a period of time and they do on the surface appear to be two completely different personalities until their lives collide in an interesting way.

As the blurb suggests if you're a fan of chick-lit or just fancy a light-hearted read this book is definitely for you.

I'm also grateful to Netgalley for the ARC copy.

Loved it. The story was unique and so well told. I was hooked almost immediately and couldn't wait to find out what was going to happen next. The characters felt like friends by the end!
