The Things We Leave Unfinished: TikTok made me buy it: The emotional romance from the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Fourth Wing

Absolutely loved this book, you really felt for the characters, the twist that kind of blended into the story was very clever and you never would have known. Very powerful and thought provoking, you will love itOnly slight niggle but I simply could have missed it was no explanation of what happened to William? (Please comment if you can explain!)

This book was chosen for my bookclub pick for January🥳.I read this via audiobook and highly recommend it 🎧.Trigger and Content Warnings❗️: family loss, arranged marriage, death, war.Tropes📝: Childhood Friends, Slow Burn, Small TownGeorgia, granddaughter of bestselling romance author, Scarlett, comes across her unfinished biography on her passing.Regardless of juggling both her ex partner and her money focused mother, Georgia agrees to hire Noah Harrison to support her in writing the novel and bring Scarlet's love story to life. Little does she know, she will go through many hurdles and fall for love herself.I loved this book! It reminded me of all that I loved from 'The Last Ride' by Nicholas Sparks. The dual timeline made this story so powerful. The book took so many emotions out of me. Although it was a slow burn, I enjoyed the pacing and really enjoyed the themes that were included in this read: family, friendship, war and hope.I am looking forward to more from Yarros now! 🥰I rated this book 4.5 🌟s overall!

This book is about 2 love stories set years apart. It had me so emotional over the twist and ending. I wasn’t prepared for the twist. I don’t think I’ve ever cried so much while reading a book. The way the book is written about Scarlett and Jameson’s life is so sweet and perfect. This is a true love story book you don’t want to miss.

Very clever book, have to read to the end!

I’m not sure I can accurately put into words just how I feel about this book. There are book out there that swallow you up mind and soul, you don’t observe the journey the characters take but you experience it as they do, and without apology these books grab every aspect of your being, pulling you into the pages so you are not aware of the passage of time and whilst the emotions they pull from you may make you want to look away you are unable to do so. This is one of those books and I am a changed person because of reading it.Told in alternating timelines Rebecca manages to seamlessly deliver to us the story of two once in a generation loves. The flow between past and present, between Scarlett and Jameson and Georgia and Noah falling in love was effortless. The insane chemistry that sparked between the characters, the heartfelt moments, the love that just bled from the pages, the loss, the twists that left me stunned. It all creates a beautifully written masterpiece that is a true transcendent reader experience.I went into the book expecting to shed some tears but I was not prepared for how emotionally destroyed this book left me and I was in absolute pieces. My heart felt ready to leave my chest and the tears would not stop. Rebecca has written a flawless book that encompasses what a classic or romance novel should be. I’ve never read anything like this and I don’t think I ever will again. This is a love story for the ages.

This is my fourth book from this author. For a reason I do not understand it did not engage me as the others did but still a good read.

This is an interesting story of love, loss, heartbreak and learning to love again. In the 1940s the story unfolds of Scarlett, her sister Constance and how they both lost their loves. Constance survives but has to protect her sister's son, so she takes on her sister's identity and moves to America to save her sister's son. She pretends to be her sister for over 70 years and no one ever finds out until her death when she writes a letter to her great grand niece.Then in today's world, Georgia Stanton the great grand niece is recovering from a shattered marriage to movie producer Damian Ellsworth. She battles with the writer Noah Harrison who has been contracted to finish her great grand mother's autobiography. Her gran, a famous writer leaves it incomplete and as Georgia and Noah work to complete it, they find a love with each other so rare. But is all what it seems and will this love last too?Read and find out.🤓

This book was heart-wrenching but hope-filling, all-inspiring and emotive. You can’t help but root for the characters, both past and present. The past characters’ determination and grit to love and live even through adversity made my heart ache; the present characters reminded me why it’s important to not give up on happy endings. I loved it!

Wow. Just, wow.So I went into this blind. I knew there was a divorce from the first few words in the synopsis I accidentally read, but that was literally all I knew.I cannot remember the last time I cried so hard reading a book. It was such a beautiful, though heartbreaking, story. My review will in no way do this book justice, or adequately convey my feelings about it. I can’t seem to gather my thoughts cohesively, so this will be scattered. I have so much to say, but also don’t want to give any spoilers.These characters stole my heart. Both men are truly swoon-worthy. While Noah’s previous “bachelor” ways are briefly (and more vaguely) mentioned, both men are gentlemen. The women show strength and intelligence. But all have moments of vulnerability.This was my first Rebecca Yarros book, so maybe it’s how she typically writes, but, I loved the way the spicy scenes weren’t overtly explicit. They were still somehow very passionate.There was a point in the book that I wasn’t loving the flashbacks, or rather the placement of them. They happen at such inopportune times. Just when I’m catching my stride and getting into the story, we go back in time. And the same happens in the past timeline. I get into it, and we jump into present again. I understand the reason for it stylistically, but it was still frustrating. That said, I realized about halfway through the reason it felt this way is because I loved all the characters so much. It wasn’t like one of those multi-POV books where I didn’t like this person and couldn’t wait to get back to someone else. I just genuinely was so invested in them all, in all the stories, that it was hard to break away once immersed.The way the puzzle pieces come together kind of blew me away. In hindsight, it all made sense. Really, I enjoyed her writing style immensely.PASTAt one point, my notes say “Is this a historical Romance?! I think I could love it.”I love the romance of that era. Her modesty and morals. There’s just such a sweet innocence about it.While a wartime romance isn’t for the faint of heart, I enjoyed the sense of urgency it created. The unknown of tomorrow. The way it matures a person, living through that.I found myself wishing I understood more about the politics of the time (though admittedly that could very well be my own ignorance, and not that anything was missing from the book). And more of the particulars of what Scarlett and Constance were doing in the WAAF.PRESENTGeorgia and Noah’s banter was fun. The care he shows her throughout the book is next level. He sits her down and reverses roles. He makes her tea. He explains how he won’t let her fall if she climbs.

Loved it ! Beautiful story.

Me gustó mucho la historia me pareció muy entretenida y no esperaba los cambios, me gustó este libro de Rebecca, he leído otros libros y no me ha defraudado. Lo recomiendo si te gusta el romance …

Das Buch hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Zwei tolle Geschichten, die miteinander zusammenhängen, in einem Buch. Eins meiner Lieblingsbücher nun.

Loved it so much. The writing, characters, story everything was on point. I have lost count on how many times I cried while reading this. Would recommend it, hundred percent.
