Tragisch schöne Geschichte, sie hat mich emotional auseinandergenommen. Am Anfang fiel es mir schwer in den Schreibstil hineinzufinden, da Gespräche nicht durch Anführungszeichen gekennzeichnet werden, aber das hat für mich eine besondere Nähe zu den Charakteren und Gefühlen hergestellt, die für mich besonders war. Ich habe sehr mitgefiebert, gefühlt und geweint. Ich bin verliebt in diese Geschichte.
Will and Rosie meet as teenagers. They’re opposites in every way. She overthinks everything; he is her twin brother’s wild and unpredictable friend. But over secret walks home and late-night phone calls, they become closer—destined to be one another’s great love story. Until, one day, tragedy strikes, and their future together is shattered. But as the years roll on, Will and Rosie can’t help but find their way back to each other. Time and again, they come close to rekindling what might have been. What do you do when the one person you should forget is the one you just can’t let go?
Okay so I didn’t finish it. This is officially the second book i DNFed. I just couldn’t do it anymore. In my opinion it was just so boring and unspectacular. No hate to the author but that’s just my opinion on it. I read 57% of it aka I stopped on page 221. I was really anticipated to read this book and I had bigger hopes on it. The two main characters are Rosie and Will aka Rosemary and William, they meet as teenagers and it should be a Love story between them but there wasn’t much happening AT ALL. Like they didn’t even really talk much with each other and I just didn’t get it, they kept meeting at the lighthouse and spending little time with each other. The communication between them was rare and I just didn’t understand their relationship at all. Generally, I was confused about a lot of things. I didn’t understand their thoughts,motives,actions and feelings at all. They like each other (kind of at least) obviously, but then they stop talking to each other, she gets into a relationship with Simon (some dude from her university) and they get MARRIED? She even thinks about running away from her own wedding like girl what are you even going at this point 😭😭. Her twin brother, Josh, died at Wills birthday when he fell off a cliff. So that factor was a big thing of their relationship I understand but everyone was just being so weird I don’t even know how to explain that. I also just didn’t like the characters, since I already mentioned everyone was being weird and Rosie’s Mother just absolutely annoyed the fuck out of me💀. This book also kinda threw me off because it doesn’t use the quotation marks at all😭. I like that the book is floppy HAHAH and I found the cover pretty nice and unique idk. Sooo yeah I think that’s all of my thoughts about it, kinda disappointing but I decided to spend my time reading another book instead of just losing days,hour and time🥲.
Ein absolut wundervolles Buch, perfekt für alle, die „Normal People“ von Sally Rooney lieben.
A beautiful novel about loss, love, missed chances, finding the right person and still missing the moment over and over again, and ultimately finding yourself after years of not quite knowing what you want and need. Rosie and Will‘s story felt so real and raw, sad and still beautiful, so authentic. It wasn’t one of loud, but rather quiet, deep and versatile trauma that took years to process and heal. The writing style was so beautiful and poetic, drawn to little details. I don’t know if I fully grasped the characters at all times, still they felt deep and authentic to me.
Das Buch habe ich ehrlich verschlungen. 🥹 ACHTUNG: SPOILER ⚠️ Anfangs habe ich mir mit dem Schreibstil sehr schwer getan, da die Dialoge nicht in der typischen Dialogform mit "" geschrieben sind. Aber als ich mich daran gewöhnt hatte, muss ich sagen, dass dadurch das Lesen so viel flüssiger lief. Emotional hat mich das Buch auf einer sehr tiefen Ebene total abgeholt, aber in den Momenten selbst habe ich nicht immer zu 100% mitgefühlt - daher der halbe Punkt Abzug. 🫣 Die Geschichte von Rosie und Will ging mir echt unter die Haut. Ihre Liebe, die beide selbst immer verdrängen, sich zeigen aber es nie sagen... und dann kommt IMMER WIEDER das Leben dazwischen. 🥺 Beide sind beeinflusst von ihren eigenen Erfahrungen und die Autorin fängt einfach so gut ein, wie die Jahre durch verpasste Chancen vergehen. Wenn man jemanden liebt - egal auf welche Art und Weise - lasst es sie wissen. Zeigt es ihnen. Verschenkt die Zeit miteinander nicht. ❤️ Wirklich ein tolles Buch, dass ich wahnsinnig mochte. ✨️✨️
this is literary art and i'm here for it. idk how to move on from this masterpiece of a book
Alas, I didn’t feel any Spark at all between the two.
