Any reader, and every character in this novel, knows from the very beginning that Mitchell is the wrong man from the books' heroine Esme. But she "loves him" and goes back to him again again only to be hurt again and again. Reading this again and again becomes quite tedious but the novel does have one redeeming quality. This is the author's descriptions of New York; the physical city itself, as well as the varied and fascinating people who make it the wonderful city it is. Yet another book where I feel stupid while reading. I fully expect to not know the meanings of a couple of words in a book but when it gets to be overwhelming, it's usually a good sign that the book and I will not be friends. I did love the description of the bookstore that the main character worked at and loved her co-workers. I found myself wishing that Esme and Mitchell would go away and leave me to talk books with the motley crew of employees at The Owl. Now that would have been a better book assuming I didn't have to pause every few sentences to define a word. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Cela aurait du etre une grande histoire d'amour, une histoire pour la vie. Mais le jour ou Esme annonce a Mitchell qu'elle est enceinte, le jeune homme decide de la quitter aussitot. Obligee de reprendre sa vie en main, Esme trouve un travail dans une petite librairie de New York. Cette boutique de quartier est tenue par George, proprietaire excentrique, et le taciturne Luke dont le reve est de devenir guitariste. Au milieu des livres, la jeune femme trouve un reconfort bienvenu, tout comme aupres des clients de la librairie qui deviennent souvent des amis. Et puis, un jour, Mitchell revient. Esme a-t-elle la force de lui accorder une seconde chance ? Le bonheur serait-il a ce prix ? Un formidable roman dont les personnages restent dans votre coeur longtemps apres l'avoir referme.

I am undecided about how I feel about how the book concluded and I think I'm coming around to liking the end. I'm left wondering what happens next.
Generally, the writing is pretty good, the plot is ok but a little frustrating and overall the whole book has a tinge of sadness that I was not expecting.
