I absolutely love Allende’s writing. This was no exception. However, the Kathryn Brown plot line I was really not expecting and it through me off guard. Worth reading at least once, if only for the Lucia/Richard story line which I found so adorable.

I loved this book! One of the things that makes a book so meaningful for me is when and how the reason for the title is revealed. This book was no exception and I found it absolutely beautiful.

Many thanks to netgalley and Atria Books for this advanced readers copy.

My first book by Isabel Allende, but a wonderful place to begin! I think I’ll read many more by her. It started out a bit slow, the beautiful prose kept me going. Finally the story picked up and once it did I couldn’t put it down.

Para ser honesta esta no tenía expectativas altas del libro, pero me sorprendió. Es la primera vez que leo a Allende y no será la última. Me conmovieron mucho cada una de las historias de los personajes, todos sus problemas y dificultades los sentí profundamente.

Me encantó como Allende describe a la muerte:
“…una poderosa ola oceánica, agua fresca y luminosa, que se la llevaba a otra dimensión.”
