I didn't expect this book to be so deep that it is but it was a pleasant surprise, a feelgood with real life problems.

The Minute I Saw You was such an amazing book and along with The Last Piece of My Heart it is now definitely my favorite Paige Toon novel. Hannah and Sonny are some of the best characters she’s created so far and I grew fond of both of them right away. I loved the story and it’s been a very long time since a book has made me as emotional as this one. I definitely had to fight back tears several times and I can’t wait to see what Paige Toon will come up with next.

I love Paiges books for years now. Every spring I’m looking forward to her new story and she never disappoints me. I always wait to read her books until the summer holidays and this year it was hard. Because of Covid-19 I read more than usually and I was tempted to read it in advance. But I didn’t and yesterday I was so glad to finally get started. The bad thing is ... I read it in a day. And now I have to wait for almost another year.

The story about Hannah and Sonny was lovely. The secrets they had, locked away so far. I really rooted for them! For me Paiges best book is ‘The one we fell in love with’ and ‘The minute I saw you’ is like that. You know there are secrets but you don’t see them coming. I loved this one!
