About this listen
Who says you can’t rewrite the stars?
1962: Twelve years removed from the summer when she first gave her heart away, Dr. Elizabeth (Ellie) Spencer, Professor of Astronomy at Indiana University, receives a mysterious package that has her asking that very question.
Inside the unmarked box is a novel written by Ellie’s first love, Jack Bennett. It tells the story of a young man and woman who meet at the water’s edge and fall madly in love, only to have their romance cut short by forces beyond their control. Ellie quickly realizes this is no ordinary story; it’s their story. Captivated by Jack’s words, she immerses herself in the pages, reliving the adventures they shared that magical summer. To her astonishment, hidden among the tales of star-gazing and stolen kisses is a detail that has her questioning everything.
Seeking answers, Ellie turns to her sister for help, but before they can get to the bottom of the mystery, news reaches them of their aunt’s death, sending Ellie back to the water’s edge with the hopes of finding the truth and rewriting the stars.

Spoilers ……………..
You can tell it is a good book when you get so caught up in the characters you get angry with them! The amount of times I muttered out loud listening to this book. Probably an unpopular opinion but I am Team Jack & Sarah. Ellie and her family, to me, were disgusting towards Aunt Clara never once visiting knowing she was all alone. At first I thought it was the distance , but then throughout the story they acknowledged it was within a days travel. Once leaving at breakfast & arriving at her hometown by 2pm. No excuse for not visiting , especially when she had summers off from teaching. Saying it would be hard in case she saw Jack, her aunt had literally lost the love of her life and was all alone. Selfish much. This sums up Ellie and her selfishness throughout the book. If Michael hadn’t ditched her she would still be with him & it would be Jack who. I wonder what become of Sarah. I’m pleased Jack was happy but I disliked Ellie
Lovely story
