It's a fast read - I finished it in less than 24 hours and I had a full work day in the middle so that tells you something. I had to find out what happened as soon as I could. I didn't like the wacky premise of the book but I did like where it took me. Reflecting back on the relationship made me think a bit about my own and reading about Georgie & Neal's special moments as a couple made me remember what it feels like to fall in love. Rowell is good at writing quirky sweet moments that feel real. Unfortunately there's a lot here that doesn't feel so real (the writing room, her super weird family, the pug dogs) and that detracted from the book for me. It's a good quick read but I'm afraid I'm always hoping for another Eleanor & Park and this isn't quite there.
What really makes a book of the summer is when we surprise ourselves. It’s not just about being fascinated by a book. It’s about being fascinated by the fact that we’re fascinated. The odds:4-1 Landline Rainbow Rowell Pros: Keen psychological insight, irrepressible humor and a supernatural twist: a woman can call her husband in the past. Cons: Relative lack of violence, perverse sex. Prix et récompensesDistinctionsListes notables

She knows that Neal will be upset with her -- Neal is always a little upset with Georgie -- but she doesn't expect to him to pack up the kids and go home without her.When her husband and the kids leave for the airport, Georgie wonders if she's finally done it. If she's ruined everything.That night, Georgie discovers a way to communicate with Neal in the past. It's not time travel, not exactly, but she feels like she's been given an opportunity to fix her marriage before it starts.Is that what she's supposed to do?Or would Georgie and Neal be better off if their marriage never happened?"-- Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
