Letters across time. Love across generations. Wait of a lifetime.

Everything about the postman is shrouded in mystery.

Alice only knows three things about him.

One, he knows her name before she even introduces herself.
Two, deaths follow him everywhere he goes.
Three, he is dangerous.

As the chance encounters between them grow, Alice learns more about him: from his time-defying pocket watch to the unimaginable repercussions of his every move.

Navigating their way through the twists of fate, they're faced with strange accidents like fires and traffic collisions. Will they discover the one behind all this? Or at least, find out there's someone else who is slipping through the cracks of time?

Join Alice in her quest for the truth behind the mysterious deaths!

This standalone time travel novel features the love story between a time traveller and a calligrapher across decades.

*Written in UK/British spelling because the author wants to retain the book title, "The Postman" (instead of "The Mailman")

2.0 out of 5 stars Confusing
Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2024
This book just couldn’t decide what it wanted to be. For a big part of the book it was a time travel romance similar to The Time Traveler’s Wife (which I loved). Then it was a pretty good murder and torture story. Part of the problem for me is that I didn’t understand the time travel element. Unlike The Time Traveler’s Wife, this story didn’t follow any time travel rules set up by the author. The lack of rules would have been OK if there had been at least some idea of what was going on. If the author was trying to tell us time travel is confusing, she did a great job. I was confused throughout most of the book. I didn’t buy the relationship between the two lovers. The author says she likes “Happily Never After” stories. She met her goals here. I was certainly not happy with the book. Maybe others will enjoy the story, but this one just wasn’t for me.

3.0 out of 5 stars So Many Genres Going on at Once
Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2024
For me, this was a 3.5-star book. A lot of what I didn't like about the book won't bother some other readers. First of all, this was kind of an odd book. While that's not necessarily a bad thing, the combination didn't quite work for me. I don't want to ruin the story, so I'll just say that it's a time-travel love story with a bit of a mystery element mixed in. For me, the combination just felt like the author was trying to tell too many stories in a short space. I think if the book had been a bit longer, the mixture of genres may have worked better.

This book is told mostly in chronological order from Alice's viewpoint. Evan time travels from the future to Alice's time and back throughout the story. Maybe, I'm misreading his time travels, but it feels like they are also mostly chronological. It's like things are moving along chronologically, and then suddenly Alice encounters the Evan from a previous time again. For me, it would have made more sense if it were either completely chronological on his part or completely random when it came to his time travels.

As a warning to readers, there are several things that some readers may find difficult to read. There is some minor swearing, as in probably about five times. There is some minor sexualization of a child, which is presented negatively but may still be hard for some readers.

The big issue is the violence. This includes child abuse, animal abuse, murder, and abuse towards family members (both toward adults and minors). There are two scenes that come to mind that may be a bit graphic for some readers. The second one I ended up skimming parts of it.

I received an ARC from BookSirens, and I left a voluntary review.

4.0 out of 5 stars Will these two ever get together??
Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2024
Although significant differences exist, "The Postman" by Nicole C W could be compared to "The Time Traveler's Wife" by Audrey Niffenegger. Nicole C W's story skips from time to time, with one character sometimes not knowing the other yet.

"The Postman" is a very touching, tender story. I enjoyed it very much and had difficulty putting the book down. Alice, a calligrapher, is the main character. Evan is the person she meets at various points in her life when he travels to her time. Evan travels because he works for an unusual sort of postal service, delivering special letters to people at a particular time in their lives.

I liked Evan, Alice, and Alice's friends. I was able to suspend my disbelief and enjoy this heart-warming and sometimes heart-wrenching story. One trigger warning: one character in one chapter tortures cats.

Thank you to Hidden Gems for the Advance Reader's Copy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love Story 💯
Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2024
'The Postman' tested a long distance relationship that was not meant to be.

A timetraveler interrupted on the job by a lovely lady.

Or was it the lovely lady whose life that got interrupted by a time traveler?

How could love survive in the expanse of time?

What would happen should someone discover the Postman's secret?

One action packed romance you won't want to miss.

I shocked myself by reading the entire book in one day.

An edge of your seat page turner to see what might happen next.

If you enjoy romance and crave excitement, 'The Postman' 💯% recommended.

Started as a cute story. I loved the Time Travel angle and Alice and Evan were so cute together. But then into the murder mystery aspect was not my cup of tea. Became very confusing.

I tried to get into this book and pushed myself to finish it even though I struggled to get to the end. This book will be perfect for those who like time-travel and mystery.

4.0 out of 5 stars A back to the future story with a twist
Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2024
A very interesting book! A very intriguing start filling you with confusion and wanting to know more. Then the genre changes and it is like reading a completely different book!

There were a few paragraphs that I deliberately scanned/skipped about the cats. Didn’t want that picture in my head. ( See it as a compliment- very descriptive! )

I didn’t agree with the description of Alice at certain ages. She seemed very old for her age. (I am 46 and look and feel better than she did at 35/40!)

Overall a very interesting book that keeps you on your toes, trying to figure out the timeline!

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

He is the postman who seems to know all about her before she introducing herself to him. Death also seems to follow him. Who is he? What will happen next? How will it all go? Follow her to find out
