The story of the Flatshare by Beth O’Leary revolves around Tiffy Moore, a girl though tall for her stature is rather not so tall for her confidence.
Trying to escape from a bad breakup she accepts the only worthwhile opportunity that comes her way in the form of sharing a one-bedroom apartment with a night shift hospice worker Leon Twomey.
The author has added a ton of side stories in this main storyline… like Leon’s search for his patient’s lost love, his brother’s court trial and his own love life.
Now that I come to think of it Leon has more going on in his life than Tiffy who mostly has to figure out how to get out of the emotional abuse she has suffered at the hands of her ex-boyfriend.
But as I said more than the story it’s the way it has been written that’s more beautiful. The author has entwined both the characters lives with ease and without being overly dramatic.
Events which are totally relatable have been used for this….. though I must say that some were a bit predictable… like I had an inkling about the way Tiffy and Leon would finally meet and I was correct in my prediction.
