A thousand kisses that can not be forgotten

Rating: 4.5
We have selected in the rating a work that raises questions of life and death, love and hate, trust and lies, joy and pain. Friends thought they would be together forever.

The girl ignores the message, what makes the guy suffer. He does not understand what happened during this time, and why relations have changed so much.
Poppy is trying to break all ties to protect his beloved from the cruel reality. The author has very shrillly shown the experiences of a terminally ill girl who does not want to bring suffering to her loved ones. Will Rune have enough strength to cope with a great misfortune, and can this love story end in a happy ending?
The tragedy of human lives is intertwined with the tender and touching love story of two teenagers. They had their whole lives ahead, many dreams and plans. The book is not about death, it is about real feeling, which helps to overcome all trials. Tilly Cole reminded us how important it is not to forget that every kiss can be the last, and that this should be appreciated, no matter what.

Girl from brooklyn
Book author: Guillaume Musso
Rating: 4.3
Guillaume Musso created a bestseller, which since its publication excites readers with its intricate storyline, intricate intrigues, secrets and past heroes. Romantic story is full of tragedy. The denouement is so unexpected that in the first minutes it is shocking.Raphael - a single father - meets Anna and realizes that he is ready to live the rest of his life with this woman. A few weeks before the wedding, she disappears, and the reaction to the photo shown to the groom, with whom they have agreed not to have secrets from each other, is to blame.
Raphael, together with his friend, a retired police officer, begins a search, learning new shocking details about his beloved past. And everything that happened to Anna seems monstrous and unreal. But thanks to the strength of the spirit, she finds the strength to live on. There is everything in the detective line: uneasy relations between parents and adolescents, corruption, intrigues of the powerful, the indifference of the authorities, drugs, alcohol, and the worst thing is child abuse.
“The Girl from Brooklyn” is not a love affair, it is a mixture of genres, and the book is not recommended for particularly impressionable people. But if you are not a fan of simple romantic stories, but with elements of a thriller and a detective story, then this work will not leave you indifferent.
