5 "Until September" Stars!

This will be super short. My mind was blown! I absolutely loved this twisty tale. Do yourself a favor and dive right in with out reading a lot of reviews that may spoil it. If it gets spoiled, it's not worth reading. J.T. Geissinger was brilliant with this one. Trust me!

"There exists a field, beyond all notions of right and wrong. I will meet you there."

Happy reading!

I have to add one thing... this book is super scorching HOT!!!! 🥵 ...more

5 Stars!

MINDBLOWING! EPIC! UNPUTDOWNABLE!
JAW DROPPING UNTIL THE VERY LAST WORD.

Honestly I'm not sure where to start with this review, how to process my emotions after reading this book or even how to explain this book in a non-spoilery way. But I'll give it a good 'ol try. And y'all seriously before I start that attempt, just know that blurb is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to all things dealing with this book and I'm not even kidding when I say that... this book was so much MORE.

3 'stuck my finger into an electrical outlet' Stars

Provavelmente as minhas tags de "shelves" nem são apropriadas. Mas basicamente serão me úteis no futuro, caso eu já me não lembre bem da história, e assim podem-me ajudar a relembrar do que contem apesar de nem ser bem assim. Confuso? Pois foi como me senti quando terminei a leitura.

Bom este livro está dividido em 3 partes. Mas para mim está dividido em 4.
A parte que gostei mais foi da 1ª até à 2ª. Aí conhecemos pela primeira vez a Olivia que es 3 'stuck my finger into an electrical outlet' Stars

Bom este livro está dividido em 3 partes. Mas para mim está dividido em 4.
A parte que gostei mais foi da 1ª até à 2ª. Aí conhecemos pela primeira vez a Olivia que está a passar umas mini férias em Paris para ver se ganha inspiração para escrever o seu livro. Também é lá que conhece o carismático James. A dinâmica deste casal é não saberem pormenores pessoais e apenas sentirem e entregarem-se ao desejo durante aqueles 3 meses de verão. E se entregam, e se esses momentos, não são fogosos e electrizantes! Até que algumas verdades de ambas as personagens começam a vir ao de cima e quando isso acontece... Parte 3!

(view spoiler)

É um livro que nos leva a nem perceber bem se gostamos ou não. Não será para todos mas quem o terminará também fica com a sensação de "what the f*ck did i just read?!"

But the thing people don’t realize is that the past is a living, breathing entity that exists apart from our wishes or best intentions. It’s not gone, and it’s certainly not invisible. Its fingerprints are smeared all over every moment of the present, its weight drags on every second of the future, its consequences echo down every hallway of our lives.

Our bones have a wisdom that our hearts will always follow, regardless of the roads down which our rational minds think we should head.

“Whatever bad thing happened to you, it hasn’t made you less beautiful. There’s beauty in darkness, too. It just takes a different kind of vision to see it .”

“It’s like you said, Olivia. Life’s too short to mince words. Our existence is measured in minutes. Seconds. Heartbeats. Time is the most valuable commodity we have, because it can never be replenished. Once it’s gone…it’s gone forever. And so are we .”

Another mysterious statement that I know will go unexplained .
The man is a sphinx .

“Until September comes and you walk out of my life forever, we’re going to spend every day as if it’s our last. No regrets. No looking back or forward. Just being in the moment. Making every minute count. Making memories we both can treasure after we go back to our real lives .”

“The mind is an incredibly powerful thing. Just as it has, say, the potential to remain in a psychotic state forever, so too does it have an unlimited potential to heal itself .”

“The only killers who have a moral code, my dear, are fictional.” His voice grows pityingly tender. “Or figments of our imagination .” ...more
