This worked for me because both were keeping time avoiding life but they bring each other alive and back into the rush. A story or survival and love.Īs the story heats up emotions getting messy and alive the prose does fill out more, leaning a little towards purple compared to what has come before. When they act on their desires it feels deeper, skipping candlelight to go straight to the heart. It's a story of healing of getting to know each other. Slow moving in many ways I'm not sure this can be classed as romance, it's not until past halfway attraction comes into play. Caring came with attitude rather than sentimentality. From there we're taken to the country a la 'The Secret Garden' 'Beauty and the Beast' and countless gothic romances yet this never felt like a gender switch, it progressed naturally while keeping the characters real. It gave a gritty feel for a story of ex-soldiers in difficult times, the main character unapologetically male. The beginning felt sparsely written, no flowery words or angst. No-one is perfect, the ending feels a well earned happy rather than idealised fantasy, not to spoil but I really liked how things worked out or them.Ĭontinue to love this book and hope from more by this author (as of Jan a return to writing is promised! :D:D ) It has a sense of time, struggles and strength with characters you can believe in. Two men surviving war and family, healing each other in turn. This book REALLY deserves more attention. They, especially Lori, is trying to figure out where she fits in the world and who she is. They are also trying to deal with the untimely divorce of their parents. However, she seems to have forgotten, or failed to notice, that her kids are also struggling. I get she's trying to feel good about herself again and, honestly, I support these things. She's still reeling from her divorce and she's trying to figure out who she is without the title of "wife" and "homemaker" in the list of adjectives. My least favorite character was Lori's mom, Barbara. Least Favorite Character: Before I share this, I want you to know that there were people I disliked and people who may have risen above her on this list had they been around more but either way, I wouldn't have loved this character. I also tweeted this sentiment at the author and she responded with an evil Grinch gif saying it was all according to plan, so yeah. My head is still reeling, I had the most bizarre dreams after finishing it, and I’m pretty sure my senses are fried. And what a freaking ride it was, that’s the best way to describe it. I decided to pick this one up because I realized how much I enjoyed Punk 57 and her writing style, plus the reviews for this book were all along the lines of “wtf” and “what the what did I just read?!” and another person was just like go in with no expectations and enjoy the ride. This is the second Penelope Douglas book I’ve read and it will definitely not be my last. You could read this as a stand alone too because there is no cliffhanger and it’s currently available on kindle unlimited. The story takes place in the same world as stand alone Punk 57 (whose main character is cousins with a character from the Devil’s Night series). Each book focuses on a different man from the main group of friends. This is the first book in the Devil’s Night series by Penelope Douglas. Traveling from London to Edinburgh to Amsterdam and beyond, Ginny begins to uncover stories from her aunt’s past and discover who Peg really was. The letter included $1000 cash for a passport and a plane ticket.Īrmed with instructions for how to retrieve twelve other letters Peg wrote-twelve letters that tell Ginny where she needs to go and what she needs to do when she gets there-Ginny quickly finds herself swept away in her first real adventure. This letter was different from Peg’s usual letters for two reasons:Ģ. But that was before she received the first little blue envelope from Aunt Peg.

Todo de una forma ligera y divertida, a mi niña le encanta el chiste de las nuts, y que los humanos somos Beans (un juego de palabras en ingles, de como somos frijoles Human Beans).Īlgo muy curioso, es lo difícil que es conseguir este libro, en la biblioteca solo lo encontré en formato digital. No es tan difícil, entender, que no comemos carne, porque no comemos animales, los animales son nuestros amigos, y uno no anda por la vida comiéndose a sus amigos.Įste libro toca muchos temas ecológicos, explica la importancia de los aceites para fortalecer los ligamentos del cuerpo, reciclas, adoptar mascotas, comer proteínas provenientes de las verduras para ser fuertes, y como no comemos miel, porque la miel es de las abejas, etc. Pero se sorprenderían de ver que inteligentes son los niños cuando se les explican las cosas con claridad, o como en mi caso, que yo todo se lo explico con libros. Muchas veces los adultos creen que los niños no entienden las cosas, o que hay que engañarlos y mentirles. Y como cualquier otro tema, yo lo hablo con ella. Pero como les decía, mi hija ni siquiera se da cuenta que no come carne, no es algo que note. Y aclaro, nosotros somos vegetarianos, no veganos. Muchas veces me han preguntado, como volví a mi hija vegetariana.
