Two lives. Two loves. One impossible choice. From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of
the Reese’s Book Club Pick One Day in December . . . I read The Two Lives of Lydia Bird in a
single sitting. What a beautiful emotional gift Josie Silver has given us.”—Jodi Picoult
Written with Josie Silver’s trademark warmth and wit The Two Lives of Lydia Bird is a powerful
and thrilling love story about the what-ifs that arise at life’s crossroads and what happens
when one woman is given a miraculous chance to answer them. Lydia and Freddie. Freddie and
Lydia. They’d been together for more than a decade and Lydia thought their love was
indestructible. But she was wrong. On Lydia’s twenty-eighth birthday Freddie died in a car
accident. So now it’s just Lydia and all she wants is to hide indoors and sob until her eyes
fall out. But Lydia knows that Freddie would want her to try to live fully happily even
without him. So enlisting the help of his best friend Jonah and her sister Elle she takes
her first tentative steps into the world open to life—and perhaps even love—again. But then
something inexplicable happens that gives her another chance at her old life with Freddie. A
life where none of the tragic events of the past few months have happened. Lydia is pulled
again and again through the doorway to her past living two lives impossibly at once. But
there’s an emotional toll to returning to a world where Freddie alive still owns her heart.
Because there’s someone in her new life her real life who wants her to stay.
