APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
We’re just going to tell you right now: You’ll want to have some tissues ready when you listen to The Days I Loved You Most. Like, get the big box, not one of those little travel packs. Joseph and Evelyn, childhood friends who grew up in a small Connecticut beach town, fell in love during the summer of 1941. Sixty years later, following a terminal diagnosis, the couple announce to their children that they plan on ending their lives together in one year’s time. In between, debut novelist Amy Neff tells a haunting, immersive love story that stretches over six turbulent decades of American history, from World War II to Vietnam to 9/11. Through it all, the touching and deeply romantic story of Joseph and Evelyn’s love and the story of their family evolve in ways we didn’t see coming. A full cast of characters adds to the immersive feel of this warm, sweet-natured, and intensely emotional love story.
