adorará Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se gostará deste livro. It starts off well, but bogs down after a few chapters. The characters are well crafted, but to the point where I couldn't stand to see anything bad happen to them. ( )Overall I enjoyed this book. It was a little different story the what you normally see in the "fantasy realm", if you can eve call it that. It was odd place the author created, and this book was a far different tone and genre then the first. I think she carried her self well. The story was interesting and weird at the same time. I enjoyed it mainly because the story was so different then what you normally read, and although it's not a top notch or as good as Ahern's novel P.S I love you, the story is still a good light read. One of those by the beach kind of reads. It's hard to explain the book, and the place "here" but it is a really neat and original idea. Kudos to the author for that. I just wished the character's were more developed and the reader was able to grow to like them a little more. Review also on my blog: http://juliebooks.blogspot.com/2008/0... If I had not gotten this from the Early Review program I would not have bothered finishing it. It was poorly conceived and poorly written. There's No Place Like Here is an attempt at a modern day fairy tale. Highly unbelievable and irritatingly precious. I'll be more discerning when choosing ER books in the future. Loved this book! Great, fast read. Funny. I really like and enjoy Cecelia Aherns writing style. All of her books are nice, easy and fun reads. My favorite Cecilia Ahern book! She has a great concept and has some unexpected points. Will keep for my personal collection indefinitely! sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha

| Descrição do livro |
|
Continuing the whimsical trend she started with If You Could See Me Now, Ahern asks readers to step outside the boundaries of reality, and enter a world where missing people (and possessions) from all over the globe congregate to start anew. When Sandy goes on an early morning jog and strays too far into the forest, she too finds herself "Here," the aptly named home of the missing. In addition to finding her lost socks, diaries, and stuffed animals, she also finds many of the people she has searched for throughout her career. From Bobby Stanley, who disappeared from his mother's house at the age of sixteen, to Terrence O'Malley, a librarian who disappeared on his way home from work at age 55, Sandy is quickly reunited with the people she has come to know only through photos and heartbreaking memories shared by devastated loved ones who enlisted her services. Of course, finding these people and possessions only makes Sandy realize how much she has missed out on in her real life, most notably her concerned parents and her on again off again boyfriend Greg.
There's No Place Like Here is often predictable and the premise is a bit hard to swallow at times. Still, readers who take the leap will be rewarded with what is ultimately a witty, compassionate, and captivating love story. --Gisele Toueg
