SHORTLISTED FOR AMAZON BOOK OF THE YEAR 2023 "I love this book so much" - Adam Silvera, #1 New York Times bestselling author of They Both Die at the End. A sweeping romantic novel from New York Times bestselling author David Arnold about the power of soulmates and love. Evan Taft has plans. Take a gap year in Alaska, make sure his brother and single mother are taken care of, and continue therapy to process his father's departure. But after his mum's unexpected cancer diagnosis, and as Evan's plans begin to fade, he hears something - a song no one else can hear, the voice of a mysterious singer ... Shosh Bell has dreams. A high-school theatre legend, she's headed to performing arts college in LA, a star on the rise. But when a drunk driver takes her sister's life, that star fades to black. All that remains is a void - and a soft voice singing in her ear ... Over it all, transcending time and space, a celestial bird brings strangers together: from an escaped murderer in 19th-century Paris, to a Norwegian cosmonaut in low-earth orbit, something is happening that began long ago, and will long outlast Evan and Shosh. With lyrical prose and breathtaking storytelling, I LOVED YOU IN ANOTHER LIFE explores the history of love, and how some souls are meant for each other - yesterday, today, forever. Perfect for fans of Nina LaCour and Matt Haig.

The concept behind I Loved You In Another Life is intriguing and romantic. The writing is similarly romantic and dreamy, bordering on the poetic. In that sense, the writing is lovely, it is very thoughtful and a very different tone to any other young adult novel I have read. I would say however that I think there is a reason for that. I find the intensity of sentiment and the curated language to be discordant with the age and life-point of the characters involved. I myself was a very dreamy teenager, with lots of romantic ideas about tragedy and romance and poetry, but at no point in my mid-teen years was I genuinely profound and mature in the ways that these characters, particularly Evan, are shown to be. I'm not claiming that every teen is the same or that it's not possible for them to be mature or profound, I'm just saying that to me these characters do not sit as entirely realistic.
For my personal tastes, the overall sincerity of this book is exhausting. I find the intense yearning tone to be dull after a prolonged period, and the truth of every line to be tiring.
Personal feelings aside, I do recognise that this book is well written, and the story is moving. The characters are all interesting, and even though I don't fully believe them I like them. I am no great fan of nostalgic or sentimental literature, but even still I would be interested to read more by David Arnold.

mixed feelings
Evan and Shosh's lives are not turning out as they'd each planned. Both can hear a song sung by a mysterious voice that no one else hears. Their souls keep finding each other over and over throughout time.
I LOVED YOU IN ANOTHER LIFE ultimately left me with very mixed feelings. I found myself either really loving beautifully written passages or speed reading to get past sections that I disliked. I felt pretty polarized throughout. The timeline is nonlinear and the narration changes perspectives a lot so it required quite a bit of attention to keep up with what was going on. Overall, the execution didn't work for me but the concept was interesting.
I LOVED YOU IN ANOTHER LIFE is the first book I've read by this author. I'd consider reading his other works.
Though not a hit for me, this may work better for others who are fans of YA fantasy romance.
