Bicara tentang kehilangan, tidak pernah sederhana..
Meski ia datang, kadang dengan cara yang teramat mudah..
Bukankah aneh, kita justru merasa sesak kala merasakan ketiadaan?
Isi kepala begitu penuh hingga tak mampu menampung sisi hidup yang lain..
Mengapa kekosongan alihalih menjelma semesta saat dirasa rengat di hati?

Seakan belum cukup kepergian Dad dan Savannah dalam kecelakaan yang tragis, Aubrey, gadis 11 tahun, masih harus mengalami kehilangan ibu nya..
Tapi bukan hanya Aubrey, ibu nya sendiri...more

Aubrey Priestly has eaten the last of the cheese and crackers and finished the juice in the refrigerator. There is nothing left to eat so she takes the birthday money Gram sent and heads to the store. She knows she can buy groceries and take care of herself, but she's worried about what might happen if someone finds out she is eleven and living alone.

Tragedy struck and took Aubrey's sister and father, and now her mother has been gone for days. Aubrey thought it was best to ignore the constantly ringing telephone since she had no idea what to tell any caller that might ask to speak to her mother. However, one afternoon she just couldn't ignore the repeated ringing of the doorbell. When she opened the door, she found Gram standing on the porch.

What follows is Aubrey's concerned grandmother bustling about asking questions about how long she's been alone and then giving instructions about what to pack since Gram is taking Aubrey back with her. They ride the train from Virginia to the familiar old house in Vermont. Used to visits only on holidays, it seems strange to be moving in with Gram, but it's a relief to have someone taking care of her again.

Aubrey gradually opens up to her grandmother as the two of them work to adjust to the tremendous changes in their lives. But even with Gram's loving care, a new best friend living right next door, and a helpful counselor at her new school, Aubrey finds the most relief when she writes letters to the loved ones now missing from her life.

LOVE, AUBREY is the first novel by Suzanne LaFleur. The story is filled with emotion. The heart-wrenching sadness Aubrey experiences as old memories begin to surface are sure to bring tears to the eyes of even the most jaded reader. LaFleur shows Aubrey dealing with grief and loss as she struggles to understand her feelings and the confusing choices made by her grieving mother.

This is a powerful story about love, loss, and healing that goes far beyond its targeted middle grade audience.

I picked this up on the the strength of the title font along the spine. I glanced at the cover, flipped it over and read the back. I opened it up, read the first few pages and decided I was taking it home with me. Surprisingly, this doesn't usually happen. I frequently pick up books because of the way they look. Reading the back usually induces me to put them back on the shelf. If the book passes that test, I read the first couple of sentences and, usually, a few random passages through the book...more

I had heard a lot of very complimentary things about this novel before I read it and so I was expecting a lot. I really wasn't all that sure what to think about it as I started reading. I was piecing together the story well before elements were confirmed and yet I was in the present with Aubrey. This could just be a story about grief, instead it's about being left behind, and all that that means.

The eleven year old protagonist is not someone I would normally want to read about. She's mourning her family - how it once was, what it isn't now. She's barely keeping her head above the waters swirling with grief, depression, anger and need. What surprised me is how removed I felt and how much emotion I felt. I am contradicting myself I know, but that's how I felt. The anger I felt towards Elizabeth is overwhelming, I understand on a base level that her depression overrode her daughter's needs but I didn't care. She left her child alone. The last remaining member of her immediate family and she just up and left her. How dare she?

While Aubrey's being difficult with her grandmother, befriending Bridget or missing Savannah - I didn't really connect. But it took one letter to her father to break me. I find it interesting that the one member of the family, the one mentioned the least, could elicit so much emotion from me. It was then I realised how beautifully crafted this novel is. Each word is deliberate. LaFleur's words are delicately placed creating a whirlwind of contrasting emotions that race through you, leaving an emotional wreck behind. It is a stunning debut effort, one that I am reluctant to quantify because I cannot place why it is so good. Perhaps it's the use of simple language which leaves you feeling sparse? Maybe it's the number of emotions, conclusions and thoughts that aren't ever directly stated? Maybe it's both. Regardless, this book is a revelation and the start to a very promising career for Suzanne LaFleur.

Love, Aubrey is a tale about an 11-year-old who suddenly loses her father and little sister Savannah in a horrible car crash. Aubrey wakes up in a hospital alone to find out about the tragic accident and to learn that her mother is alive. Her mother falls into a deep depression and seems to have forgotten about everything around her including Aubrey.
One day Aubrey wakes up to find her mother gone and it does not look like she will be coming back. Aubrey is determined that she will be ok and that she is strong enough to live on her own. She goes to the story buys groceries with her left-over birthday money and a new pet fish, Sammy, to keep her company.
Aubrey is not alone long. Her grandmother shows up unexpectedly and takes control of the situation. Her grandmother makes the decision that Aubrey will come home with her to live in Vermont.
Aubrey is left in a mess of emotions. The story takes places over the next year where we see her deal with the terms of these drastic changes in her life. Supportive family, neighbors, friends and a school counselor help Aubrey through a painful year. We see Aubrey deal with the situation in her own way by writing letter to those she has lost and her sister’s imaginary friend.
Will Aubrey mother be found? Will her mother come back? Will Aubrey learn to live and accept the lost of her family? You will have to read on to find out.
This children’s book is outstanding and is not just for children. I have fallen in love with this book and I am looking forward to reading Suzanna Lafleur’s new book.

No, not because this is not a good book, but because it's so heart wrenching, yet so beautifully written, even after it got translated.

Ceritanya tentang seorang gadis cilik berusia 11 tahun. Di awal buku diceritakan kalau pada suatu pagi Ibu gadis ini tiba-tiba menghilang dan meninggalkan dia begitu saja. Hal itu ternyata karena keluarga mereka baru saja kehilangan Ayah dan seorang anak, Savannah, adik Aubrey.

Awalnya Aubrey nggak bilang pada siapa pun tentang kepergian Ibunya, tapi akhirnya Gram, neneknya, datang dan mengetahui itu semua. Gram akhirnya membawa Aubrey ke Vermont dari Virginia untuk tinggal bersamanya.

Di Vermont, Aubrey memulai kehidupan yang baru, dia bahkan memiliki sahabat baru, Bridget, yang tinggal di sebelah rumah Gram. Keluarga Bridget masih utuh, dan dia memiliki dua orang adik.

Mereka sering bermain ke dalam hutan, dan Aubrey sering meninggalkan surat-suratnya kepada Jilly yang misterius di pohon luka milik Bridget. Mereka bermain luncur salju, membuat manusia salju, berkemah di halaman, mendatangi pesta Holloween Christian yang sedang ditaksir Bridget, dan merayakan ulang tahun Aubrey bersama Marcus, cowok dari kelas Aubrey yang ceria tapi diam-diam sedih.

Lalu, ketika akhirnya Ibu Aubrey tiba-tiba muncul kembali, haruskah Aubrey kembali ke Virginia yang gelap dan suram seperti yang diingatnya dan meninggalkan kehidupan barunya yang menyenangkan di Vermont?

Saya membaca buku ini di kereta dalam perjalan ke kampus. Jadilah saya harus berkali-kali mengusap sudut mata dengan sembunyi-sembunyi, supaya penumpang lainnya nggak ada yang menyadari air mata yang mendesak muncul gara-gara membaca buku ini.

Semua orang yang merasa butuh a good cry harus membaca buku ini, atau mungkin, orang-orang yang merasa butuh diyakinkan bahwa bahkan setelah yang terburuk terjadi pun, harapan akan selalu ada, dan kesempatan untuk tertawa gembira pasti akan muncul kembali.

Dan nggak ada yang salah dari hal itu.

Selamat menikmati. Selamat menangis, selamat tertawa, dan tentunya, selamat membaca ;](less)

Quotes from Love, Aubrey

“But really, anybody could die any day, whether you were ready or not. It could be your pet fish or your sister or you. Nothing is the same forever. Maybe all the people on Earth are God's little pet fish. God lives such a long time that people's lives probably seem really short to him. He watches them swim for a little while, and then they stop swimming. ” — 17 people liked it
