One Day

 One Day is a fiction novel written by David Nicholls. Set in Britain, Dexter and Emma meet on the day they graduate from college. Every year they meet again on the anniversary of their first meeting. Dexter goes into television work and Emma teaches school. Both Dexter and Emma have serious relationships over the 20 years that are covered in this novel. We don't get the whole story but just snippets from a single day of the year. If I was Emma I wouldn't have kept Dexter as a friend. He is often rude, inconsiderate, condescending and drunk. But I did enjoy reading the book.
