Rezension von Asia PanziniThe Bright years hat mich emotional komplett zerrissen und deshalb gab es direkt fünf Sterne von mir. Wir begleiten eine Familie über mehrere Generationen und bekommen die Perspektive von Tochter, Vater und Mutter. Es geht um Sucht, Verlust, Tod, Trauer, Vergebung und vor allem um die Frage, ob man sich nach all dem Leid überhaupt noch trauen kann zu lieben. Besonders Jets Geschichte hat mich dabei sehr berührt. Sie muss lernen, wieder den Mut zu fassen, zu lieben, obwohl sie weiß, dass Liebe auch bedeutet, irgendwann wieder jemanden verlieren zu können. Und genau das nehme ich aus diesem Buch mit: Liebe ist es immer wert. Auch wenn sie wehtun kann. Auch wenn wir wissen, dass wir vielleicht irgendwann trauern müssen. Ein unfassbar herzzerreißendes Buch über Familie, Verlust und den Mut, wieder zu lieben, nachdem man Liebe verloren hat. ❤️ ★★★★★
Rezension von GretaEine emotionale Achterbahn über Liebe, Freundschaft, Familie, Freunde, Trauma, Geheimnisse, Sucht und so viel mehr
Rezension von LissyEven a few days later this book still lingers in my head. The different povs depicting all those views at certain times was so interesting and gave me all the feels. It was so enriching having all those characters having a chance to tell things from their perspective without diminishing the previous ones. I loved the way this book was structured in differently lengthen chapters, amazing writing, deeply touching story. Loved this.
