Night Music: The Sunday Times bestseller full of warmth and heart

Product Information

As it is a country book there is some animal hunting which, whilst it doesn't go into minute detail it did still make me uneasy to read it. Dar când soțul ei moare într-un accident, Isabel trebuie să învețe să fie mamă și să se descurce fără niciun sprijin, într-un fiasco financiar. I’m not gonna spill more beans but I can only say the conclusion about some of the characters’ stories are not fair! Her novels have been translated into forty-four languages, have hit the number one spot in twelve countries and have sold over thirty-eight million copies worldwide. Even though the incompetencies of Isabel frustrated me a lot, I can resonate with her because her music is her only power and sometimes those artsy minds dedicated their souls to create new compositions and they slowly separate from the responsibilities and obligations of real life.

Laura was a complete twit staying with him when she knew he didn't love her or respect her, and was happily shagging half the village. Isabel Delancey’s husband Laurent is killed in a car crash and for the first time in her life she has to provide both emotionally and financially for their two children, the teenage Kitty and her younger brother Thierry. Die Charakteren sind ebenfalls eher schwarz - weiß gezeichnet, mit wenig Tiefgang und bleiben an der Oberfläche ihrer Darstellung.

The great thing about Jojo Moyes is that every one of her books are different so there is something for everyone. It has quite sinister undertones in places and the character of Matt is especially well created - starting out as the local friendly builder and gradually getting darker and more threatening as the story evolves. Luckily, at this point, the family are thrown a lifeline in The Spanish House and they immediately up sticks and move to the country and try and settle into the difference that living in a small village community offers. Später, so hatte ich den Eindruck, versuchte sich Jojo Moyes zu verändern, sowohl thematisch als auch im Schreibstil.

From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Me Before You and the new 2023 novel Someone Else's Shoes. The secondary characters in this book (many of them with occasional points of view,) were wonderful to read. For a woman who has lived a sheltered life as a classic violinist while her husband took care of the things in their everyday life, Isabel is thrown for a loop and for a while, is barely able to cope. I have to be honest and say this isn’t my favourite from Jojo Moyes work but it’s definitely worth the read. At the beginning, she appears to put her music before her family, sticks her head in the sand when faced with problems and is so incredibly gullible and naive it made me want to scream!Empathized with the characters - saw all sides of the situations for all the Age groups in the narrative.

Diesem Buch merkt man an, dass es 2008, also früher als die letzten Bücher von Jojo Moyes, geschrieben wurde.

Isabel Delancey finds herself in dire straits when she realizes that her money is running out, and with two children to support, she has to face some harsh realities. Una historia preciosa, que sorprende por sus giros, con una MARAVILLOSA construcción de personajes (Isabel, mi favorita) y con un final original e inesperado. What makes this book special is the thoughtful manner of Moyes' characterizations and the believability of the situation.It was perfect in the way she found solace in her violin, taking to the roof at night to play out all of her emotions. Când Isabel primește moștenire Casa Spaniolă, aflată într-un satuc, de la o rudă îndepărtată și primește vestea că este singura ei șansă de a-și putea reveni financiar, plăti datoriile și întreține copiii, ia decizia de a se muta acolo, dar nu știe că această casă este aproape o ruină, râvnită însă cu ardoare de cei care îi îngrijiseră ani de zile unchiul, în schimbul unei promisiuni de a o moșteni.

Moyes even creates a scene where our boy Firth emerges from swimming in a lake with his muscular torso gleaming and his hair slicked back - sending our widow's heart racing! I normally take to one or more of her characters, especially the main players, however, I didn't find this the case in this story. I have loved reading most of Jojo Moyes’ previous books but I found this one rather disappointing, quite run of the mill.knight in shining armour, Byron Firth who works for Matt but knows exactly what kind of man he is and attempts to help Isabel through the mess she finds herself in. Isabel will discover an instinct for survival she never knew she had – and that a heart can play a new song . Stereotypes feel familiar, after all, and I knew these people would remain in character and play their parts correctly. Full of family secrets and well crafted characters, I was drawn into the well woven, nicely paced plot and hope her other older titles are as good.
