Über das Buch

A witty and thought-provoking YA love story set during the COVID-19 quarantine, written by two NYT bestselling authors, with shades of Five Feet Apart and Anna and the French Kiss .

Maxine and Jonah bump into each other in the canned goods aisle of the grocery store just as the state of California is going into lockdown, when everything changes completely. Could there be a worse time to meet? Max's part-time job at a supermarket is about to transform into a hellish gauntlet. Jonah's preexisting anxiety is about to become an epic daily struggle. As Max, Jonah, and their friends live together but apart through hijinks, humanity, and heartbreak, Hello (From Here) cuts across urgent matters much bigger than a teenage crush. Differences of class, privilege, mental health, and sacrifice are thrown into stark relief by the profound and personal stresses of the COVID-19 pandemic. As thoughtful, probing, and informed as it is buoyant, romantic, and funny, Hello (From Here) looks at the first two months of the quarantine and adds falling hopelessly in love to the mess.

Max and Jonah lernen sich mitten in der Pandemie kennen. Wie schwer es ist, zusammenzuführen und welche Abstriche Jugendliche in dieser Zeit machen mussten, wird realistisch dargestellt. Für meinen Geschmack gab es vielleicht zu viele Handlungsstränge, die dadurch teilweise nur oberflächlich beleuchtet wurden (stepmom, anxiety, Arlo, moving houses, dad in Spain, mum's death, so it's quite packed...) Ein Jugendbuch, das trotz seines realistischen Plots trotzdem Hoffnung macht, dass alles gut wird: "Max, if there's one thing I was born to do, it's to spread happiness is flannel waterfowl " (p. 228)

Applause to the authors for taking this incredibly difficult topic and writing about it in such a relatable way
It was a great book with serious and emotional topics in it. Jonah and Max are managing their lives while also dealing with the pandemic – it felt real to me. TW: parental death, anxiety, panic disorder

It really couldn't cut it for me. It sort of frames the pandemic but not in a way that feels right to me. Also, Jonah is a really annoying character and the whole side story of Arlo isn't thought through. It comes together somewhat nicely in the end but doesn't make up for the rest. In conclusion: The author seems to desperately want to transfer the whole Corona atmosphere but fails at it. Maybe due to the length of the book.
