@lukesreads: This book was grieving and loss in real time. Grieving ‘what ifs’ and ‘what could have beens’. And the loss of lives unlived and love that exists in ‘if onlys’. It was emotionally devastating beyond anything I’ve read before, probably because I relate so deeply to some core themes in the story. Also @Brooke Averick this recommendation was a declaration of war. Warning: there are spoilers in this video. #BookTok #BookRecommendations
Lily Kings book lovers and writers is also about Jordan (Casey) but in her years between her relationship with Yash and Her marriage to Silas! I didn’t know that until I was reading it and I was like WAIT. And then read that heart the lover is considered a prequel/sequel to that book

Lilly allowed us all the opportunity to go back in time to a life we lived prior to our current life. To revisit our first love. To bid farewell. To see through Casey’s eyes, not Jordan’s. And maybe feel a peace to let go off a past we never fully let go of. Masterpiece. I’m dehydrated.

As a mother whose only child was stillborn, I can relate to the grieving of what if’s and what could’ve been. I was 26 when I gave birth and now at 40 and no living children I deeply understand the loss of motherhood and the loss of a partner in my child’s father. They say there are three great losses in life that may deeply wound you forever. The loss of a spouse/partner through death, the loss of a spouse/partner through divorce, and the loss of a child. Having been through two of those I hope I have prepared myself for the day I lose my heart’s love after the passing of my spouse/partner. Luckily I have the strong belief that our hearts have an infinite capacity for love. Even if we suffer great loss that leaves the heart like Swiss cheese, we still have room for new love to form and grow.

I have a deep yearning and desire to be a mother. This book, I fear, would ruin me.

What is wrong with me as a human being when I am convinced to read a book by someone telling me the author wants to hurt us as much as possible 😂

Siddhartha by Herman Hesse is a beautiful book to me and changed my outlook on life. So beautifully written! If you have time it’s a book to remember and read again.

I think the pace of the prose was a great way to depict how quickly our choices can change the course of our lives and the weight of these “simple actions” as well as our messy emotions that keep us from true fulfillment and having to really look at grieving those choices and the what ifs of it all.
