I think it was very clever. And well worth putting in the to-keep pile. Though the one I read myself was from the library so I’, returning it today. It is funny cos when i first saw the adverts for the movie I thought it was such a silly concept. But she delved pretty deeply into the subject and conveyed such depth and feeling…
That was exactly how I felt. Like, if I looked back at my life, from the future, I would be able to see all the things I could have or should have done, the book just really touched me and made me think more about the choices I make. It really touched me deeply, I don’t think any other book has had that kind of effect on me. I also really enjoyed the film, which I thought was very moving xx
Exactly where he loses his feet had to close the book
that was quite a shocker. I did too. But that is pretty near the end….
I loved it!
I agree. Very deep, really.
Pretty great, wasn’t it?
yes. Only now I need something much lighter! Picked up one of the teen book I borrowed so I’m up to date with what my son is reading 😉
Yup. Wow.
Now watch the movie. Ending is different but just as good and it’ll make you cry. A lot.
saw that one already. Books better. Will be seeing it again tomorrow with the book-club. First we discuss book, then see movie 😉
Book was so much better than the movie, and I loved the movie!
I watched the movie and found it to be awesome… is the book even better than that?
I think so. There are some pretty big differences as well… like how his mother actually dies.
Ok…will get my copy soon then
I love the book . I have to read it again
That’s a beautiful book! I loved it to the core!
*adds to TBR* I’ll have to try writing that list out sometime, or I’m going to forget it lol especially all of the books I’ve found here.
lol. I’ve been putting them in fishpond wish-list.
Read it a long time ago but remember it vividly fab book
It’s amazing in a “shatter your heart into milions of pieces” kind of way. The movie did NOT do it justice.
An amazing book! I cried so much. ?❤
Me too!! After I finished reading I sat for a good hour and cried my eyes out
Oh the ending…..

One of my favorites! ?
That book amazed me!! Totally stole my heart! I love it so! <3 <3 <3
I agree. It was not a very easy read… but deep and quite thought provoking.
I think I might have cried, most likely more than once.
Oh yes!
That book is still one of my favourites. I love the story and the way it was written.

I honestly think it is one of the best books ever xxx
I kind of agree. It was a bit heavy reading…. but you walk away feeling… life – and our time in it, should never be taken for granted.

My favorite book, and she is one of my favorite authors. I’m happy to see so many others enjoyed the story as well!
Broke my heart, same impact as Benjamin Button?
