All the Things We Never Said

Product Information

Jackson’s debut is well-executed and surprises readers with a connective web of interesting characters and motives. We need more diversity and we need more heavy topics in books, we need to discuss the tough topics and give representation and to show that it's not always happy endings and romance. Před dvanácti lety v zapadlé vesnicí v pohraničí, kde platí vlastní pravidla a lidé stále věří ve staré bohy, zmizely beze stopy čtyři děti.

It is honestly heartbreaking because we all know our mothers try their best to be the absolute best for their children but they too have their flaws. Jedenáct českých autorů, jedenáct young adult povídek o odvaze, přátelství, prvních láskách i síle a odhodlání být skutečně sám sebou. In this powerful debut written in three points of view, Yasmin Rahman has created a moving, poignant novel celebrating life. Soon they decide one by one that maybe life is worth living and they don't want to go through with the suicide pact. Ignorant to the fact that our whole lives are turned upside down as we're sick and in agony and thinking instead that we're just being melodramatic or a scrounger.Overall I enjoyed reading the book, it offered a good insight into mental health and how vulnerable you really are but I just didn’t think the ending was satisfying. They drift apart and find new friends, but their friendship keeps asserting itself at parties, shared holiday gatherings and random encounters. Yuya Ishii wrote a script that focuses on the “inherent” characteristic of Japanese people, who always have trouble communicating their feelings and thoughts, in three days, and started shooting a couple of months later.

The author also does well to keep each voice distinct from the other, with Mehreen’s Chaos scribbled onto the page, Cara’s use of profanity and Olivia’s chapters written in verse.The drama that permeates the narrative only breaks upon the friendship of the two men, which seems to overcome their past, Atsuhisa's attitude of silence, and the overall occurrences that take place in the story. There’s no romance part in this book and I feel okay about it because the main focus was on Mehreen, Cara and Olivia. I loved Mehreen and I loved how the author wrote about anxiety, I haven't related to a book this much in a long time! Three beautifully drawn, distinctive and compelling voices narrate this heartbreakingly honest story.
