Eileen is sick of being 79.
Leena's tired of life in her 20s.
Maybe it's time they swapped places....
When overachiever Leena Cotton is ordered to take a two-month sabbatical after blowing a big presentation at work, she escapes to her grandmother Eileen's house for some overdue rest. Eileen is newly single and about to turn 80. She'd like a second chance at love, but her tiny Yorkshire village doesn't offer many eligible gentlemen.
Once Leena learns of Eileen's romantic predicament, she proposes a solution: a two-month swap. Eileen can live in London and look for love. Meanwhile Leena will look after everything in rural Yorkshire. But with gossiping neighbours and difficult family dynamics to navigate up north, and trendy London flatmates and online dating to contend with in the city, stepping into one another's shoes proves more difficult than either of them expected.
Leena learns that a long-distance relationship isn't as romantic as she hoped it would be and then there is the annoyingly perfect - and distractingly handsome - school teacher, who keeps showing up to outdo her efforts to impress the local villagers. Back in London, Eileen is a huge hit with her new neighbours, but is her perfect match nearer home than she first thought?

Geschichte
Tiffy Moore needs a cheap flat, and fast. Leon Twomey works nights and needs cash. Their friends think they're crazy, but it's the perfect solution: Leon occupies the one-bed flat while Tiffy's at work in the day, and she has the run of the place the rest of the time. But with obsessive ex-boyfriends, demanding clients at work, wrongly imprisoned brothers and, of course, the fact that they still haven't met yet, they're about to discover that if you want the perfect home you need to throw the rule book out the window.

Geschichte
Addie and her sister are about to embark on an epic road trip to a friend's wedding in rural Scotland. The playlist is all planned, and the snacks are packed. But, not long after setting off, a car slams into the back of theirs. The driver is none other than Addie's ex, Dylan, who she's avoided since their traumatic break-up two years earlier. Dylan and his best mate are heading to the wedding, too, and they've totalled their car, so Addie has no choice but to offer them a ride.

Geschichte
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.

You always remember your first love. Don't you? It began with four words. "I love your laugh." But that was 12 years ago. It really began the day Georgina was fired from The Worst Restaurant in Sheffield (TripAdvisor) and found The Worst Boyfriend in the World (Georgina's best friends) in bed with someone else. So when her new boss, Lucas McCarthy, turns out to be the boy who wrote those words to her all that time ago, it feels like the start of something. The only problem? He doesn't seem to remember Georgina at all.

Her meet-cute with her fiancé is something out of a romantic comedy (gag), and she’s managed to finance her entire wedding by winning a series of internet contests (double gag). Worst of all, she’s forcing Olive to spend the day with her sworn enemy, Ethan, who just happens to be the best man.

Soon she's living in a stunning house by the sea, fending off obsessed fans for a retired - if far-from-retiring - actor and organising his charming but chaotic family. Yes, everyone thinks she's part of a couple, and it's tricky keeping this secret. But at least she's not looking for love: with her disastrous relationship history, men are definitely off the agenda.

On the one hand, if Essie hadn't written that letter - the one that only her best friend was meant to see - then she'd still be living like an actual proper grown-up, tucked up with Paul in his picture-perfect cottage, maybe even planning their wedding.... On the other hand (if her true feelings hadn't accidentally taken the Internet by storm, that is), she never would have met Zillah and Conor - not to mention Lucas. And she'd never have found out just how much life there is to be lived....

Lovely story, one terrible speaker
The person reading the older persons also made me cringe (as someone else pointed out before me). Loved the other one, though, so I managed to finish listening to the book. No huge surprises in the plot, but sometimes that is exactly what you need.

A bit disappointing
I found the book too emotional and a little "mushy" with a predictable ending. No surprises at all. There were so many characters; it was difficult to remember who they all were. I struggled to finish it and was disappointed as I had so enjoyed "The Flatshare". On the positive side, the author was trying to deliver some important messages (e.g. coping with loss). I'll try the next book though (fingers crossed).

😡 Hintergrundgeräusche 🤬
Ich dachte erst, die Sprecherin von Eileen würde - für Authentizität? - mit dem Gebiss klappern oder sonstwie damit spielen. Es war so enervierend,daß ich zeitweise überlegt habe, ob ich mir das wirklich antun kann, ständig eine Art blubberndes, klapperndes Nebengeräusch zu haben. Ziemlich am Ende war das Geräusch auch bei Leena zu hören - und ganz am Schluss ist es in "Musik" übergegangen. GANZ GROSSER MIST!
Die Geschichte selbst klang lustig, war es dann aber nur teilweise - aber sie ist gut.
Empfehlenswert nur, wenn man Störungen ausblenden kann (ich beneide meinen Mann darum!)

Authentische Selbstfindung von Granny und Enkelin
Mir hat dir Geschichte, obgleich sie etwas vorhersehbar ist, gut gefallen. Der Kontrast zwischen Big-City-London und ländlichem Leeds und den jeweils typischen nachbarschaftlichen Eigentümlichkeiten wird von den beiden Protagonistinnen unterhaltsam gechannelt. Ich mochte die ältere Sprecherin (Eileen) sehr, die natürlich ihrem Alter entsprechend (Nebengeräusche eingeschlossen) spricht und mich an eine bürgerliche Dowager Duchess of Grantham erinnerte. Liebenswürdige Charaktere und abwechslungsreicher Wechsel der Szenerie mit alterssensiblen Inhalte (Einsamkeit, Dating mit 70+ und Familiendynamik) machen das HB zu einem kurzweiligen und relevanten Erlebnis.

Love the books from Beth O‘Leary so far. And that the main character have different voices each time makes it so much more authentic. The story is always relatable and even for a foreigner like me easy to understand and follow
