Beschreibung

“One of the loveliest, most exquisitely beautiful books I’ve read in a very long time. . . . I didn’t just read the pages, I lived in them.” —Jennifer Niven, New York Times bestselling author of All the Bright Places

A beautiful love story for fans of Jandy Nelson and Nicola Yoon: two teens find their way back to each other in a bookstore full of secrets and crushes, grief and hope—and letters hidden between the pages.

Years ago, Rachel had a crush on Henry Jones. The day before she moved away, she tucked a love letter into his favorite book in his family’s bookshop. She waited. But Henry never came.

Now Rachel has returned to the city—and to the bookshop—to work alongside the boy she’d rather not see, if at all possible, for the rest of her life. But Rachel needs the distraction. Her brother drowned months ago, and she can’t feel anything anymore.

As Henry and Rachel work side by side—surrounded by books, watching love stories unfold, exchanging letters between the pages—they find hope in each other. Because life may be uncontrollable, even unbearable sometimes. But it’s possible that words, and love, and second chances are enough.

me after reading: u okay? also me: no. Strangely, Martin seems to enjoy his interactions with George. There’s nothing she can do that he doesn’t find funny or weird but, on the whole, likeable. ‘What are you reading?’ he asks George on Friday afternoon. ‘Kafka’s Metamorphosis,’ she says without looking up. ‘And what’s it about?’ ‘Guy turns into a giant bug and eventually dies.’ ‘Not exactly life-affirming,’ Martin observes. ‘Life isn’t exactly life-affirming,’ George says. That would be all. Thank you.

Ein besonderes Buch über das Leben, Trauer, Liebe und Freundschaft

Ich habe das Buch im Laden gesehen und das Cover hat mich direkt in seinen Bann gezogen. Auch die Geschichte konnte mich wirklich überzeugen. Es gibt einem einen anderen Blickwinkel auf viele Dinge und ist dabei aber nicht zu schwer.

I really enjoyed it. All the characters (besides Amy and Greg) were great and I loved the letter library. Just the whole concept.

Wow. I usually NEVER dnf a book, but this one was just so bad, ugh. I barely made it halfway through before I decided that there are better books out there to read instead of wasting my time with this YA-novel.

Really enjoyed this book. It felt a bit rushed at times and I would‘ve loved if some moments were described more in depth, but overall it was a great story about grieving, love, friendship and letting go of the past to enjoy the future.
