I have many thoughts on the book so let’s get started. I decided to grab Me Before You around mid-month because I’d been reading a lot of light hearted and fun books throughout the month of February and I, surprisingly, wanted a break from YA at this point in the month. When I finally realized my mistake, I headed over to Amazon and picked up a copy of Me Before You and After You so that I’d be ready to read Still Me when the time came. I say “mistakenly” because at that time I didn’t know it was the third book in a series. Last year, I mistakenly ordered Still Me as one of my Book of the Month selections.

Each holds a key that can unlock the truth to the mysterious life and death of this enigmatic millionaire.ĭaisy Buchanan once thought she might marry Gatsby-before her family was torn apart by an unspeakable tragedy that sent her into the arms of the philandering Tom Buchanan. Then a diamond hairpin is discovered in the bushes by the pool, and three women fall under suspicion. To the police, it appears to be an open-and-shut case of murder/suicide when the body of George Wilson, a local mechanic, is found in the woods nearby. On a sultry August day in 1922, Jay Gatsby is shot dead in his West Egg swimming pool. USA Today bestselling author Jillian Cantor reimagines and expands on the literary classic The Great Gatsby in this atmospheric historical novel with echoes of Big Little Lies, told in three women’s alternating voices. Unfortunately, his father brings him too much troubleand too many debts to payfor that to ever be possible. Rath's kind heart and earthy pragmatism make him easy to root for, and while events unfold in thoroughly predictable ways, entertaining flourishes in both the tournament and the romance will sweep the reader along. Tournament of Losers Megan Derr Fantasy / Romance / Gay and Lesbian All Rath wants is a quiet, peaceful life. When the local crime lord drags Rath out of bed and tells him he has three days to pay his father's latest debt, Rath doesn't know what to do. (The marriages need not be heterosexual one appealing feature of Derr's setting is the casually depicted wide variety of genders and sexual preferences, and fighters of all kinds are admitted to the tournament.) Meanwhile, Rath begins developing a relationship with a nobleman he met at the pub, though he knows there's no future in such a match. All Rath wants is a quiet, peaceful life. When a crime boss demands Rath pay the hefty debt Rath's father recently incurred, Rath realizes his only hope is to enter the Tournament of Charlet, often called the Tournament of Losers, in which commoners compete to marry the scions of noble houses. Rath scrapes up funds through working at the docks or in brothels, paying his bills with just enough left over for the occasional ale at the pub with his friends. Derr (The High King's Golden Tongue) bolsters this romantic fantasy with a charismatic protagonist and an engagingly designed cod-medieval world, helping the story's clich d elements feel charmingly familiar rather than stale. |
