This book is emotional, meaningful and significant. There were parts that were absolutely heartbreaking. And there were parts that made me cry.

The story is of Callie and Joel and how they meet and he knows when she is going to die. It’s a story where I kept hoping it would go the way that I personally wanted it to. I never at any point stopped rooting for Joel and Callie. Joel has dreams - don't we all - but his foretell the future. He has hidden this ability from everyone since he was a child and it has affected his whole life especially his ability to make relationships. So when he meet Callie he is desperate not to get involved but he does and finds happiness until one night he dreams of their fate. Joel and Callie are strangers who have a meet cute in a local coffee shop where Callie works. Joel is an empty human being who is blessed with the curse of being able to see the future of his loved ones. He has struggled his entire adult life with how to cope with this "gift". He has sworn off any real romantic connection because the other person only gets hurt loving someone who cannot give their full selves in return. Callie has her own share of heartbreak and is a person who lives a very safe life. She puts others before herself and doesn't do enough to break free and live out her own dreams. When Joel and Callie meet and fall in love, the reader is treated to a twist on the typical romance story and the ending is what really elevates this book the most. This is going to be a summer sell out - we are not talking sex or lust but a tale of love and sacrifice that will at some point have you crying. If you could see into the future what would you do with it? Some books rip you apart, even as you are marveling at how beautifully put together they are — The Sight of You is one of these. Holly Miller — with her startling metaphors and finely-etched portrait of a star-crossed relationship — has created a novel that is unique and breathtaking and painful and broken and perfect…just like love. I’m still crying, yet all I want to do is settle down and read it again.”Understandably he is not keen on letting himself love anyone else and works hard at isolating himself from relationships, all the while trying to alter the future by subtely warning his friends and family to avoid certain activities, places or actions or by taking matters into his own hands to change their paths and avoid that foreseen destiny. The Sight of You is listed as book one in The Sight of You series (listed as two books). However there is no cliffhanger. And the story ends with a complete ending.

Such a well written book this is a romance story with a difference and I bet will be turned into a movie. Narrated in the first person with chapters which alternate between Joel and Callie the story conveys both characters empathy, resilience and compassion in the face of extraordinarily testing circumstances. Despite not being a fan of love stories this one had rather more depth to it than usual and the characters actually felt like they had a meaningful connection and convincing rapport. Miller paints big emotions with nuance and subtlety, exploring complex family dynamics, grief, and anxiety with expert skill that lends realism to her tale, despite its supernatural conceit. This beautifully rendered work is both heartbreaking and life-affirming. Readers should be prepared to cry." - Publishers Weekly (starred review) Joel has sworn off falling in love.

I personally did not want to know in advance what it was (but it is listed in the book blurb). But it has to do with dreams.This book stole my heart. It reminds me of how I felt when I first read The Time Traveler’s Wife.
