This coming of age and coming out novel should be read, talked about and passed around much like Judy Blume’s iconic Forever. Read me like a book es una novela fresca que juega con fuego sin quemarse, con un ritmo lento al comienzo y trepidante hacia el final, al que le faltaría un poco más de calidad narrativa, pero que engancha igualmente por la cantidad de problemáticas que toca. I'm not sure how, but neither the comedy nor the seriousness were compromised at any point and both were pretty much on point. Es sumamente fácil de leer, llevadera, fresca y muy recomendable para leer entre lecturas más pesadas o densas.

The novel draws the reader deep into their lives as we get to know each of their flaws, joys, struggles, and fears. From starling murmurations and bold displays of colour to conkers, fruit and fungi, autumn is full of wonder – and it offers us a refreshing escape. Murray, su profesora que, sin entender porque la hace sentir tan bien y quien parece haberse convertido en la única persona cuya atención busca atraer y el único momento de la semana que realmente espera con ansias. From American author Donna Leon, this crime series takes us in Italy, in or around Venice, for some murder mysteries. The friendships were real and relatable, the misunderstandings totally understandable, and the prejudices left me feeling indignant with rage.

Algo que me gustaría aclarar desde un principio es que no se dejen llevar por la sinopsis que parece plantear una relación de amor entre profesora y alumna bastante cuestionable. She only questions it when things with him don't go well when he starts treating her poorly, things go wrong and find herself turning to her new English teacher for help when it all gets too much. An excellent example of the power of storytelling (see Chapter 6 in Read Me: “Not telling stories, selling stories’).

I made assumptions about the choices I thought Ash would make but had to sit back and let the story unfold rather than try to jump ahead and work out where it would go and this made the book even more enjoyable. I love the taboo nature of student-teacher relationships (spoiler: there isn't one), the added angst of that relationship (non-existent) being a queer one, where one of the characters is discovering her sexuality for the first time. This rich and amusing tale follows the life of Billy Pilgrim as he experiences World War IIfrom a peculiar perspective. Relaciono el titulo "Read me like a book" con que Ash, su mente y emociones, eran como un libro abierto que todo el mundo podía leer; combinando una referencia a la participación de la maestra de literatura en la historia. Me hubiera gustado que muchos otros temas que se nombran o se dejan ver levemente tomaran más profundidad.We have developed a bespoke volunteer programme which allows employees to take part in our work but is designed to sit within your existing volunteer programme and reflect the location of staff whether they’re office based or working from home. I wanted to say a HUGE thank you for all the hard work of yourself, Julie and the rest of the volunteers.

I'm really glad I gave this book a go and I'm definitely going to check out other ones by this author.Lo que más me gustó del libro fue como la autora trabajó las escenas con Miss Murray y como logró desenvolver las cosas siendo realista y fiel a sus personajes.
