Goodbye For Now
On sale
16th August 2012
Price: £14.99
A poignant, heart-warming novel of love, loss and the possibility of keeping the past alive in a wholly unexpected way for fans of ONE DAY, WHEN GOD WAS A RABBIT and THE NOTEBOOK.
Imagine a world in which you never have to say goodbye.
A world in which you can talk to your loved ones after they’ve gone –
About the trivial things you used to share
About the things you wish you’d said while you still had the chance
About how hard it is to adjust to life without them.
When Sam Elling invents a computer programme that enables his girlfriend Meredith to do just this, nothing can prepare them for the success and the complications that follow. For every person who wants to say goodbye, there is someone else who can’t let go. And when tragedy strikes, they have to find out whether goodbye has to be for ever. Or whether love can take on a life of its own…

A fabulous, original read - very funny, yet so sad and thought-provoking too. I couldn't put it down
An ingenious emotional riptide of a story that leaves your heart drifting in the gulf between losing a loved one and actually letting them go
Clever, funny, moving, intelligent, GOODBYE FOR NOW is about love and loss, real live emotions and human relationships... Will Laurie Frankel's wonderful book capture your heart and imagination? Absolutely. You will laugh; you will cry
If you like your love stories modern, clever, and a little weepy (think ONE DAY), you will adore this
The strength of Frankel's story is that she tackles big questions surrounding grief. . . . A perfect end-of-summer cottage read. As a writer, Frankel is literate, funny and at times poignant
There's no denying Frankel's warmth, wit and ingenuity in this cleverly conceived charmer
