HTML:On a June day, a young woman in a summer dress steps off a Chicago-bound bus into a small midwestern town. She doesn't intend to stay. She is just passing through. Yet her stopping here has a reason and it is part of a story that you will never forget. The time is the 1950s, when life was simpler, people still believed in dreams, and family was, very nearly, everything. The place is a small midwestern town with a high school and a downtown, a skating pond and a movie house. And on a tree-lined street in the heartland of America, an extraordinary set of events begins to unfold. And gradually what seems serendipitous is tinged with purpose. A happy home is shattered by a child's senseless death. A loving marriage starts to unravel. And a stranger arrives—a young woman who will touch many lives before she moves on. She and a young man will meet and fall in love. Their love, so innocent and full of hope, helps to restore a family's dreams. And all of their lives will be changed forever by the precious gift she leaves them. The Gift, Danielle Steel's thirty-third best-selling work, is a magical story told with stunning simplicity and power. It reveals a relationship so moving it will take your breath away. And it tells a haunting and beautiful truth about the unpredictability—and the wonder—of life. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

This was my first Danielle Steel and it will likely be my last. Her writing style (and probably subject matters) are just definitely not for me. Part of my issue with this book is that it's a romance about two 16-year-olds, which is really not a type of romance I enjoy. Most of my issue, however, is with the writing style, and the rest is with the bizarre plot.
I just don't understand most of the choices made by the characters in this book, especially the adults. I didn't connect with any of the characters because of Steel's straightforward, tell-never-show, style and that made it hard to just go along with what they were doing, or even root for the relationship between the teens.
I know Ms. Steel is an incredibly prolific writer and they can't all be bangers, but I don't imagine myself giving her another shot. She's definitely got a huge fanbase without me. ( )
