Summary
Prepare to fall head over heels. This is the perfect book for fans of Josie Silver, Richard Curtis and anyone who ever fell in love with the wrong person.
What if you couldn’t get away from the one who got away?
Unlucky in love Jess is following her dream and moving to London. It’s December, and she’s taking a room in a crumbling Notting Hill house‐share with four strangers. On her first night Jess meets Alex, the guy sharing her floor. They don’t kiss under the mistletoe, but as far as Jess is concerned, the connection is instant. She lets herself imagine how their relationship will grow over the following year.
But when Jess returns from a Christmas holiday, she finds Alex has started dating someone else - beautiful Emma, who lives on the floor above them. Now Jess faces a year of bumping into (hell, sharing a bathroom with) the man of her dreams…and the woman of his.
Jess is determined to move on and survive the next 12 months…but love has a way of hampering even the best laid plans....
Set over the course of one life‐changing year, this is the most uplifting and moving love story of 2019.

Sweet story
A lovely book and easy listen. The characters are normal people who you can invest in and the narration is lovely too. Would recommend :)

Rather dull
I found this book very dull. Reading the first and last chapter would have told me all I needed to know. I did not warm to the characters or care if they got together or not.
The female narrator had some very dubious accents and the male narrator made the character sound permanently depressed. I felt the need to see it through to the end but needn’t have bothered.

Nice Story
It's a heartfelt story that ended how I wanted it to. There's enough 'will they/won't they' to keep you engaged and not get bored. I thought the male voice artist was great but the female voice artist's accents were a bit crazy at times - then again mine would be horrendous so I can't say much.

stupid story moany protagonist
STupid non romance romance. Male character is simply moaning and keeps shagging flat mate. And moaning. Other flat mate moons over him. Really unrealistic and stupid

An OK read
From the premise of the story, I really thought that I would have loved this, however I found it confusing and ultimately an OK read but it just wasn't for me.
We Met in December" implies that this is a Christmas romance. It's not—each chapter propels the plot into a different week/month of the year, showcasing small vignette-like scenes that kept me from becoming too invested in any one aspect of the character's lives, as the reader is never present in the same place long enough to have any meaningful connections.
Overall We Met in December was a rather quick read but absolutely not a engrossing one. The start of the novel was slow whereas the conclusion of the story felt rushed.
