[herald-caliber]

[marcia-stronger]

"Em Em Busca de Abrigo, três diferentes gerações da família Ballantines nos são apresentadas. Em terceira pessoa, acompanhamos a trama pelos olhos de Joy, a matriarca da família, ora pelos de sua filha, Kate, e ora pelos de sua neta, Sabine. No prólogo do livro, temos a noite em 1953 na qual Joy conhece o marido e os primeiros desenrolar desse encontro em sua vida. No primeiro capítulo, logo a seguir, somos transportados a 1997 com Sabine viajando para a casa da avó, férias um tanto quanto indesejadas por ela."

You and I both know I can do just fine without you. But here's the thing: I don't want to.

The only thing that lets us travel without moving is a good book !

📚Absolutely loved reading this series of books by Jojo Moyes this year, her writing is comical in places and very dramatic in others. I had only seen the Me Before You movie before I had started reading these, now I can say that I much prefer the books! 📚  I will now include the different blurbs from each of the books, so you too can see how much goodness these books contain ✨

📚 Me Before You 📚”Lou Clark knows lots of things. She knows how many footsteps there are between the bus stop and home. She knows she likes working in The Buttered Bun tea shop and she knows she might not love her Boyfriend Patrick. What Lou doesn’t know is she’s about to lose her job or that knowing what’s coming keeps her sane. Will Traynor knows his motorcycle accident took away his desire to live. He knows everything feels very small and rather joyless now, and he knows exactly how he’s going to put a stop to that. What Will doesn’t know is that Lou is about to burst into his world in a riot of colour. And neither of them knows they’re going to change the other for all time. “

📚 After You 📚”Lou Clark has lots of questions. Like how it is she’s ended up working in an airport bar watching other people jet off to new places. Or why her flat she’s owned for a year still doesn’t feel like home. Whether he family can ever forgive her for what she did eighteen months ago. And will she ever get over the love of her life. What Lou does know for certain is that something has to change. Then, one night, it does. But does the stranger on her doorstep hold the answers Lou is looking for- or just more questions? Close the door and life continues: simple, ordered, safe. But Lou once made a promise to live. And if she’s going to keep it, she has to invite them in...” 

📚  Still Me 📚”Lou Clark knows too many things... She knows how many miles lie between her new home in New York and her new Boyfriend Sam in London... 📚

“Um caminho para o amanhã” - Jojo Moyes  💕

[katherinestvincent]

"Me Before You" adalah novel author kedua yg terbaik stl "The Girl You Left Behind". Saya suka karakter utama di novel ini, saya juga suka semua sidekick di buku ini (pengecualian Patrick, pacar Lou yg narsis ini). Dan saya beli buku ini bukan krn saya suka cover movie version, tapi dpt yg sale justru buku cover ini. Tema perbedaan kelas, slow burn, servant love story mewarnai buku ini. Chemistry Lou dan Will bagus krn tidak ada itikad seksual sama sekali. Saya suka kreativitas cara berpikir Lou walau banyak yg ajaib. Saya suka sarkas dan humor kering Will dan motivasinya pd Lou. Endingnya jg gak bikin mewek (buat saya ya) spt yg diheboh²kan yg sudah baca. Yg terpenting adalah kita bisa memetik hikmahnya dari bacaan. Selama ini saya baru baca 4 buku Jojo Moyes, dan saya kurang suka dgn buku "The Last Letter from Your Lover" yg cenderung pro perselingkuhan. Kumpulan cerpen "Paris For One and Other Stories" justru lumayan tapi jg sebagian besar biasa² aja. Dulu saya pernah foto tapi bingung mau nulis caption nya. Jadi hari ini sekalian aja saya posting deh. . . . #KatBooksCollection #romance #romancestagram #contemporaryromance #jojomoyes #feminist #womenauthor #stayhome #bookstagrammerindonesia #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagramfeature #booksofinstragram #readingchallenge #goodreads #readingbooks #booklover #bacaituseru #pecandubuku #ayomembaca https://www.instagram.com/p/CMg8pN6DrG1/?igshid=1nglujns1t8xc

Wie ein Leuchten in tiefer Nacht

In der Hoffnung, aus ihrem erdrückenden Leben in England zu entkommen, heiratet Alice Wright den attraktiven Amerikaner Bennett Van Cleve und reist mit ihm nach Kentucky. Dort erhofft sie sich ein freies und aufregendes Leben an der Seite ihres Ehemannes.

Doch Alice wird gründlich enttäuscht. Unter der Fuchtel ihres Schwiegervaters sind ihrer Freiheit Grenzen gesetzt und das verschlafene Dörfchen Baileyville bietet nicht viel Abwechslung. Als eines Tages die sogenannte Satteltaschenbücherei vorgestellt wird, in der freiwillige Bewohnerinnen Baileyvilles tätig werden sollen, sieht Alice ihre Chance gekommen. Nichtsdestotrotz ist es ein langer Weg zu dem Leben, das Alice sich erträumt hat.

Die Idee zur Geschichte ist wunderbar. Das Setting ist das Nordamerika in der Zeit der großen Depression. Eine junge, unerfahrene Britin kommt in das Land der unbegrenzten Möglichkeiten, erhält allerdings einen kräftigen Dämpfer.Doch durch die Möglichkeit der Satteltaschenbücherei und durch die anderen Frauen, die dort arbeiten, wird Alice mutiger, sammelt Erfahrung und lernt für sich selbst einzustehen. Dabei macht der selbsternannte Patriarch des Dorfes ordentlich Schwierigkeiten.

Alice selbst ist eine authentische Hauptfigur. Wir lernen ihre Geschichte kennen, ihre Wünsche und Ängste und erleben ihre Gefühlte. Sie entwickelt sich weiter und ist am Ende des Buches zu einer starken Frau geworden.

Bennett Van Cleve ist genau richtig geschrieben. Er kommt zuerst wie der perfekte Gentleman daher, doch nach und nach wird klar, dass er sich nicht gegen seinen Vater wehren kann und alle anderen darunter zu leiden haben. Sein Vater Jeffrey Van Cleve ist sozusagen der Bösewicht der Geschichte. Er macht Ärger, wo er nur kann, behindert die Frauen bei ihrer Arbeit und legt Alice und Margery Steine in den Weg. Er ist genauso geschrieben, dass man ihn gut hassen kann.

Die anderen Frauen der Bücherei sind mir schnell ans Herz gewachsen: Margery, Sophia, Beth, Izzy und Kathleen. Alle haben ihre eigene Geschichte und ihre eigenen Probleme. Margery ist sogar so etwas wie die zweite Hauptfigur. Über sie lernen wir eine ganze Menge, und sie ist die wohl großartigste Frau in Baileyville.

Es gibt mehrere Konflikte, die gut zusammenpassen und sich nicht widersprechen. Alle werden in einem geeigneten Rahmen aufgearbeitet, teilweise bedingen sie sich auch. Insgesamt ist das ganze Konzept wunderbar durchdacht und ausgeführt.

Das Happy End hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Es ist nicht übertrieben und jeder bekommt das, was er verdient. Die Zusammenfassung aller Figuren und deren Schicksale am Ende fand ich noch einmal sehr schön.

Insgesamt ist "Wie ein Leuchten in tiefer Nacht" ein etwas anderes Buch von Jojo Moyes, aber nicht weniger schön und nicht weniger lesenswert mit großartigen Figuren, einem tollen Konzept und einer authentischen Geschichte.

[marcia-stronger]

A história envolve quatro mulheres, com personalidades próprias, fortes e reais. Porém as regras no navio são bem rígidas, e, no decorrer da leitura, você percebe que a viagem promete mudar para sempre a vida dos tripulantes.

Durante essa viagem inesquecível, laços são formados, laços são desfeitos e segredos são revelados. O livro tem uma narrativa maravilhosa, as personagens são singulares, cada uma com a sua peculiaridade, fazendo com que o leitor se envolva de uma forma particular com cada uma.

BOOK REVIEW

I love this book. When I started to read this book I can't stop reading. The story was funny, romantic and heartbreaking at the same time. My best friend suggested this book she said it was really nice. So by the time I bought this book to read the movie was released.  But I decided to read this book first then watch the movie. Trust me it was worth it. I finished this book in three days when I was at the end of the story I didn't want the book to end but after some time, I came to know that this book has a sequel (After you).

Back to the story, it was a great novel. I think it is one of the best novel I ever read. Jojo Moyes portrayed a lot of things, a guy who's struggling with a spinal cord injury (Will Traynor) and a girl who is struggling without a job and how she find one and how she fells for a guy who doesn't like her and who always rude to her(Louisa Clark). I feel so connected with all those characters. Moyes also addressed the topic of human nature and how connecting with certain people will make you see life in a beautiful and in a happier way.

I didn't expect the ending to be so sad. I couldn't take the heartbreak so every time I look at the cover of my book ill cry like a baby. it was truly devastating. But it was a beautiful story. It makes you experience all those emotions Louisa experiences in the story. Overall it is a fun ride you can go on without even thinking too much. After reading the story you'll find happiness in all those small things you do in your life. I would like to finish this review in Will Traynor's words...

" Push yourself,  

 Don't settle, 

 Just live well,

 Just live... " 

 Hope you enjoyed my review, Have a great day.
