Critics Review
James Bailey’s debut novel takes the usual rom com formula and turns it on its head … refreshing, funny and heartwarming, we could not get enough of this
The Way Back To You had the ability to make me feel all warm and fuzzy but at the same time I literally couldn’t put it down. I enjoyed the sense of intrigue around missed connections and impending weddings and the characters were complex and beautifully written. Please could we have a sequel so that I can find out where they all are in five years’ time?!
