fantastic third book

This is the third book in this series by these authors. OMG, I didn't think this book could be better than the second one but the authors definitely managed it and more. This is a amazing read, you won't be able to put this book down. Amazing characters with fantastic chemistry between them. This book is full of emotions, love and angst. Have the tissues at the ready you will definitely need them. I can't wait to read more from these authors in the future.

Highly recommended series

The Lifted Veil is a novella or short story by George Eliot. The story is told by Latimer, who has just been told he has not much longer to live, and looks back on the events of his earlier life. What makes this story slightly unusual, at least taking into acount the time it was written, is that Latimer seems to suffer from some sort of illness and this may or may not be related to his ability to read the emotions and/or thoughts of other people. This ability is the lifted veil of the title. It's not a cheery, happy-ending feel-good story, but it is interesting.

This had me gripped from the very first sentence to the very last. I am currently researching P.T.S.D. in order to write a theatre production. Brian had, and still has, a lot of emotions that didn't always make sense and that is a natural reaction given the sights he had witnessed.
When he stands in a queue and contemplates killing those around him due to their lousy life worries was very tense in reading but very understandable. He has been reassured that he isn't crazy and that he doesn't have P>T>S>D and I hope that gave him peace mentally and physically. Excellent book!

Becs (244 KP) rated Death of a Salesman: Certain Private Conversations in Two Acts and A Requiem in Books

Jan 2, 2020

Death of a Salesman is a riveting story that will grab your emotions and pull at your heartstrings. The plot is a rollercoaster of events. At first, I was confused with the Ben character but towards the end of the play, I was finally able to understand each issue that took place with each character. Understanding the pain that Willy was going through. Understanding the issues Biff has with stealing from jobs. Understanding Happy's need to sleep around. Bringing to light the issue of a salesman's career and how the job market was going downhill. Death of a Salesman is worth a read or a couple of rereads!

This book addresses some heavy topics. Which is shared in the content warning at the beginning of the book. I feel like this book did a fantastic job of being in the emotions and questions that would come along with the subject matter discussed. I only wish there was what I feel a better more complete ending but I also feel like that was the way it was meant to be to prove no decision has to be permanent you can keep a secret or decision to be quiet but thats not how it has to stay when or how to speak up is up to you.
