Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the advanced copy of the book.

This was a very emotional and heartfelt book that I really enjoyed. It kept me engaged throughout the story

Many thanks to NetGalley and Sourcebooks Landmark for the ARC. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book.
The mark of a good book is that is sits with you days after you've finished it. In a lesser writer, this story could have been maudlin and depressing. Not so with Suzanne Ewart - given the subject matter of Huntington's disease, this was a beautifully told story through Jess's eyes, at times sad, yes, but mostly uplifting and sometimes very funny. The only reason I'm giving this 4 stars instead of 5 is because Alec was a little too perfect You love him for putting up with Jess's emotions and still coming back for more, yet I'm not sure why he wasn't angry or showed more emotion with her when she was so awful to him at times.
Well done, Ms. Ewart, I look forward to future books of yours.

This ARC was provided to me via Kindle, from SOURCEBOOKS Landmark and #NetGalley. Thank you for the opportunity to preview and review. Opinions expressed are completely my own.

An emotional ride in this heartfelt journey.

While I had high hopes, I left this story feeling disappointed. I wasn’t drawn into the love story, and I found the relationship to be quite tiresome. The main character was very frustrating to read from at times. While the story with her caring for her mom would tug at your heartstrings, overall I just wasn’t sold on the story. It was a bit lengthy for the content it had, and I found it dragging.

I tried so hard to love this book, but it starts SO slow and didn't really pick up until almost the end. I kept getting annoyed how Jess acted/spoke to Alec. Just wasn't a big fan, but would love to try another Suzanne Ewart novel.

This book was sadly a pass for me. I did not find the main characters likable. Jess's story is heartbreaking, but her interactions with Alec made me cringe. But also, Alec was not likable either.

I knew this book would be a roller coaster ride, but sadly, this is not the ride I want to be on.

1. This book might make you cry
2. It will keep you up late reading
3. It will give you hope and courage
4. You will love Alec
5. You will learn a lot about Huntington's disease
6. You will want everyone to read this book too

One Month Of You emotionally wrecked me. I started it at 1am and finished it in less than a day because I was so invested in Jess's life and journey. I found myself tearing up, laughing and crying, though not always in this order.

I love how the story is told entirely from Jess's POV because we get so much insight on not just what people with a degenerative disease go through, but also the viewpoint of a carer and all that they have to cope with. It's even more heartwrenching for Jess, who has to watch her mum deteriorate all the while knowing that she might suffer the same fate. Their mother-daughter relationship tugged so much on my heartstrings.

Alec is such a dream, though at times to a fault. I can sympthatize with Jess putting up walls and pushing him away time and time again, but his reactions feel a bit unreal to me while her treatment of him seems repeatedly harsh. Even though I enjoyed the romance overall, this didn't sit right with me. Nevertheless, I loved the flawed but very human characters in this book.

Beautifully written and full of heart, you will want to have some tissues on standby while reading!

I wasn't at all sure what to think of this book as it started out. On the one hand, I understood where Jess was coming from, at least on some level. On the other, she came across as a bit... full of herself? Maybe thats the way to describe it? I understood her rules and why she put them in place but she didn't seem to understand that unless a person has all of the information, they're never going to understand where she's coming from.

then alec. while he grew on me, much like jess did, in the beginning i was like GET A CLUE. he was almost too softly aggressive about pursuing something with Jess even though she was fairly clear on what she did and didn't want. it was annoying but then everything changed.

ultimately, this book had me in tears in the end. while the start is quite bumpy and the choices and decisions the characters make feel very all or nothing with very little context or basic understanding, once the book started to delve into what Jess was protecting herself from, it really became very moving. and the heart of the story is a mother and daughter losing one another, and apparently that can still get my tear ducts into overdrive.

Ewart navigated a very difficult premise and diagnosis with grace and showing one person's reality when it comes to caring for someone with Huntington's and having a positive genetic test for it, was truly emotionally charged. what starts as an odd premise, blossoms into something deeper than i anticipated.

Do not fall in love! That's a hard rule Jess sets in order to prevent heartbreak from the devastating outcome of Huntington disease. Jess would know how falling in love would end as she's the one caring for her sick mother, so she's experiencing the trauma and turmoil that the almost always hereditary illness brings to families. So for this reason, she must abide by that rule. Then along comes Alec with his supportive, caring nature; he shows Jess that it could be possible to have a happy life after all. Does Jess remain true to her rule or can she juggle both caring for her mom and risking her heart?

I loved this book! It had everything I look for: strong, likeable, and relatable characters, romance that felt real and genuine and not forced, and family drama as a strong side story. The relationships between Jess and the secondary characters were outstanding. I loved the different interactions with each; they helped shape and define Jess. The struggles were real, the pain was gripping and I cried. It's not often that I cry over a book, so when I do...it's a special one!

The ending was just perfect and left me with all the feels. A nice wrapup to a beautiful story. I couldn't put this one down!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5

This book was everything I wanted it to be. It had me turned pages without even realizing. It was so good!

I received this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This started very slowly and was hard to stay engaged for a while. Characters are almost overly realistic but are believable. Read this when you're ready for introspection!

Grab the tissues for this one! I really adored Alec and Jess!
Jess is so hard on herself and I understand why, but it can be really hard to enjoy any part of life if you are stuck worrying about what is coming in your future.
It's hard for Jess to see her mum decline, but it's also lovely to see how it has brought them so close.
I really liked Olivia and how good of a friend she is too Jess. I also really loved Debs and how she is more than a carer for the family but also a friend.
The romance between Alec and Jess was sweet, but you can also see the love between them before they even do.
A beautiful story of family and love.

Thank you NetGalley for this ARC!

“One Month of You” is a debut novel by Suzanne Ewart. I have mixed feelings about this book. I found the sections about the horribleness of Huntington disease to be thoughtful and pointed without skirting the truth. I believe that Ms. Ewart did a wonderful job portraying this disease through Jess’s mum, Susan. I can understand Jess, the main character, deciding to follow some rules to protect herself from being hurt but some rules - especially those of the heart - really were made to be broken. Alec has a lot more patience and determination than nearly any guy I know - he deserves a crown for persistence, determination, and going after Jess (no offense, but I’d’ve taken her at her word too many times for a friendship to work out, let alone a relationship!). I was thrown a bit by the flashback chapters, which were scattered throughout the book. And I don’t believe that I really warmed up to Jess, though I felt more sympathy toward her after about the 60% mark. And Alec, again, deserves a crown for not leaving and continuing to try - bless him. A solid 3.5 star read, but punted up to 4 stars as it's a debut novel.

3 stars- honestly didn't really pick up until 60% through the book. thanks netgalley & the publisher for the arc!

Thank you so much to sourcebooks for an early copy of this in exchange for an honest review.

This book broke my heart. eerly similar to a walk to remember, reading about Jess and Alec was so heartbreaking. I just wanted to shake them at times. But overall a beautiful story. i highly reccomend it

Wow! What a great read! It has me feeling all the feels. Definitely similar to Me before You - same gut wrenching unknown future and learning to make the best of the days you have. Would definitely read and recommend! Thanks NetGalley for the ARC! I really enjoyed this love story ❤️

I initially requested this book because of the cute cover and I'm so glad I did. This story was much deeper than the cover and I really enjoyed this love story. I felt it was beautifully written and touched the tough issues of chronic illness in a really beautiful way.

A beautiful, stunning, thought-provoking story.
One Month of You by Suzanne Ewart is a phenomenal debut.

I felt truly engaged with the characters, I found the story believable and so beautiful.
Alec asks Jess has a gorgeous, truthful, raw, emotional story to tell.
Well-developed, fascinating characters, unexpected revelations, unique plot, and thought-provoking storyline I couldn't put this down.
My emotions were all over the place with this book.
A breathtaking, emotional and compelling novel.
One Month of You is a poignant look at love and hope, and living every moment with no regrets.
Unforgettable, this one broke a piece of my heart and put it back together.

One month to date. One month to live. One month to fall in love.

Sourcebooks Landmark,
Thank You for your generosity and gifting me a copy of this amazing eARC!
I will post my review to my blog, platforms, BookBub, B&N, Kobo and Waterstone closer to pub date.

Oh, how this lovely book wrecked me! Read this in two sittings because I had to know what happened. Absolutely loved the premise- this is great for fans of Colleen Hoover. Would absolutely recommend!

Gut wrenching in the best way. I loved this book and I think fans of Colleen Hoover would as well. Couldn't turn the pages fast enough to see how the story would play out. I've never read anything from this author but definitely will be in the future!
