The book I am about to write a review about is called Heart and Soul and it is written by Maeve Binchy. This book is brilliant.
This book was very interesting to read, because it has so many different characters with all their own stories. You would think that this will make you distracted, but the beautiful thing is that they are all connected in some way. So their stories all come together and make one, which was something totally fresh to me.
Mind you, I am not talking about 5 characters, but I think you can come to a total of perhaps 20-25 different characters with each their own storyline. Some short some long but you really get to see in to their 'Hearts and Souls'. You really come to care about all the characters. It is actually quite satisfying to get to know all characters that well, because she spends time on all of their thoughts and wantings. You get to see how people come to stupid misunderstandings and what people are able to do for one another and in the end how a very big group of people are all connected in some way.
To come to a conclusion; this book just makes you happy and all satisfied. It is warm and easy to read. A very nice book to open on a rainy sunday afternoon.

Dear Marissa,
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHaving read the book myself, I'm still in the dark about the contents of the book you could have informed the readers about. Please, give a brief description of the story, a few of the main characters and 'the all's well that ends well' bit at the end.
Regards,
Jannie
