Summary
Hearts thump, heads swoon and breath stops in this exquisite romance of a love lost and found.
Dora and Luka are inseparable—ever since he fainted at the sight of her walking into the classroom with her new schoolbag, and she woke him with a chaste kiss, it has been love at first sight. ‘There’s something in the air when the two of them are together.

Critics Review
A lush, flowing, elegant novel, Every Day, Every Hour shows a world where love is stronger than will
A lush, flowing, elegant novel, Every Day, Every Hour shows a world where love is stronger than will – Simon Van Booy, author of ‘The Secret Lives of People in Love’
Croatian-born Nataša Dragnic’s debut novel, Every Day, Every Hour, beautifully translated from the German by Liesl Schillinger, takes its name from lines of the Pablo Neruda poem ‘If You Forget Me’. It’s a fitting title for this passionate, decades-spanning tale of star-crossed lovers * Vanity Fair *
A romantic and thrilling love story that recounts the longing that connects two souls * Cosmopolitan *
Luka and Dora are made for one another. But they can’t seem to get together. A beautifully tragic love * Elle *
Who is it for? For anyone who wants a poetic love story which heralds the summer * Süddeutsche Zeitung *
You can sense every second that they are soul mates… It is extremely rare that you find such a beautiful and romantic love story which is wonderfully narrated and not at all corny. A real discovery * Berliner Morgenpost *
Nataša Dragnic has woven a seemingly simple but also serious and deeply moving love story. Readers will find it hard to put this gripping story down, the flowing style, the surprise twists, the protagonists themselves and their entanglement will keep you enthralled until the last lines… It is not kitsch, over-the-top or shallow but lively and colourful. A perfect book for your holiday suitcase or for a weekend at home alone * Gießener Allgemeine *
This is the book that is wowing everyone - I too immediately fell for the love story between Dora and Luka, who are meant for each other but manage to mess it up so completely – Angela Wittmann * BRIGITTE *
