“Books are the plane, and the train, and the road. They are the destination, and the journey. They are home.”― Anna Quindlen, How Reading Changed My Life
It is true, no two persons reads the same book. We got into them with our own histories, our own points of view and are own interests. What one person loves, another may not. In this book, there is one book and it changes many lives. Alice has always wanted to be a writer. She has always written but it is only when something happens that she writes her debut novel titled “Theo”. Her book will not only change her life but it will change the lives of nine readers who read it.
“No two persons ever read the same book.”- Edmund Wilson
This was a beautifully written book that tells the story of each person who reads Alice’s book and the impact the book has on them. This is something that all book lovers can relate. We have all read a book that moved us, that spoke to us, that was there at the right time and felt as if it was written for you at that time in your life. There are beauty in the words and in the connections.
Each of the characters in this book have something going on in their lives. They are struggling and dealing with their individual issues. None of them read the same book when they find themselves reading “Theo”
I enjoyed and connected to the concept of this book. Very original, very moving and very well done.
Thank you to St. Martin’s Press and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.
