Our Stop

By: Laura Jane Williams

Narrated by: Carrie Hope Fletcher, Felix Scott

What if you almost missed the love of your life?

Nadia gets the 7.30 train every morning without fail. Well, except if she oversleeps or wakes up at her friend Emma’s after too much wine.

Daniel really does get the 7.30 train every morning, which is easy because he hasn’t been able to sleep properly since his dad died.

One morning, Nadia’s eye catches sight of a post in the daily paper:

To the cute girl with the coffee stains on her dress. I’m the guy who’s always standing near the doors… Drink sometime?

So begins a not-quite-romance of near-misses, true love, and the power of the written word.

Includes a bonus Q&A between Laura Jane Williams and Carrie Hope Fletcher

A wonderfully funny will-they-won’t-they romance told with real emotional honesty, perfect
for those who loved Sally Thorne’s 99% Mine and Helena Hunting’s Meet Cute.

I thought this was very cute

I hesitated in buying this one at first because people were calling it a copy of The Flatshare among other things, but it's not. Sure, there are similarities, but overall it's a good story on its own and not a flat out copy of anything.

Relatable and cute

For me the storyline was starting out a little slow but after it got going the story got good. The conversations between friend and the internal dialogues were really on point with sentiments felt my millennials today. Loved the feminist vibes. Great rom-com, easy listen.

ENCORE! ENCORE!!!!!

I just ADORED this story! I was afraid it was going to be super cheesy, but it’s not ay all. It actually addresses some dark subjects and kept me hooked!

Feel-good and smart sweet romance

It's so hard to find a romantic story that is not cliché or too corny, so this book felt like jackpot. The writing is great as well as the narrators. The story is also current and brings up feminist topics that are currently popular without leaning too heavily on it. Yet the romance is well... romantic, pushing the falling-in-love fantasy right up to where it should as far as rom-coms go. Hoping that Laura Jane Williams continues to write fiction.

Love

Just loved this book so much and every little missed connection the characters had just felt so real but also magical and just reinvigorated love to me
