Book stuff: Perfect by Rachel Joyce

I just finished reading Perfect by Rachel Joyce and I absolutely loved it! I randomly treated myself to it in Waitrose on a bit of a down day, as the synopsis seemed to connect with how I was feeling in that moment. Perfect tells the story of a summer in 1972 when two seconds of time are added on and a young boy Byron who thinks he witnesses the time change on his watch and in that moment something awful happens. Failing to get the incident out of his mind, Byron and his friend James launch 'operation perfect' to attempt to put things right, but events spiral out of control with life changing consequences. This book links both summer 1972 and present day time together with alternating chapters, each chapter ended on such a good cliff hanger that I was desperate to find out what happened next. I really want to read Rachel Joyce's other book, the unlikely pilgrimage of Harold Fry now, so I will be looking out for that in the library. I will be posting a reading group questions and answers session on Perfect up on my blog next, I will flag that it contains spoilers, so don't look if you haven't read the book yet.
