Lydia deals with death, loss, depression, and anxiety, which I thought was much more complex than anything else I’ve seen in this genre. While One Day in December was fluffier and heavier on the romance, this story dealt with serious topics and somehow made a romance novel into something both entertaining and motivating. The Two Lives of Lydia Bird was nothing like I expected. Brutally honest and deeply funny, The Two Lives of Lydia Bird is a testament to love as well as to the lengths we’ll go for the people we love. But as the lines between delusion and reality blur, Lydia must choose to either accept reality and move on with her life or stay stuck in her dreams, coming back time and time again to the man she loves once her eyes shut. While her life “awake” is painful and grey, she new finds solace in the “asleep” and continues to fall even further for Freddie. Now uncertain of what her future will look like, Lydia returns to Freddie in her dreams each night, as if he hadn’t died. Lydia is single and left with the guilt and heartbreak from the loss of her boyfriend. Both tragic and ultimately uplifting, The Two Lives of Lydia Bird tackles the pain of grief and the freedom that comes with new possibilities and new opportunity for love.įreddie is dead. But when tragedy strikes, Lydia must reevaluate her future and try to find some solace in a world without Freddie. They had ordinary lives, ordinary jobs, and an ordinary, wonderful life together. Lydia thought she had her life planned out with her boyfriend, Freddie.
