Ishabelle's Reviews > The Simple Wild

A great book isn't great because it was written with all the fancy allegory, the literary symbolisms, or the vast vocabulary that the author uses.

A book is amazing because it has touched its reader, because it speaks directly to the one holding it. Even if it touches only one person in a world of billions, it becomes a great book to the person.

And I have to say that this book is easily my very favorite read this year. It reminded me of my dad and all the things he's missed since he passed away. It showed me that love isn't always about who you get to spend the rest of your life with, that sometimes it is about the here and now, how much you feel and do for how much time you have.

There are so many good things I could say about this book, and they still wouldn't be enough. I've read a few books from this author before, but this one right herr transcends just romance. This is an epic and emotional journey that I will always be glad to have read.
