Becs (244 KP) rated You Are Not Here in Books
Oct 25, 2018 (Updated Oct 25, 2018)
A startling novel about love and grief.
A breathtaking novel that will allow you to experience love and grief altogether.
I have only ever read a novel like You Are Not Here one other time. This is a novel yet in poetry form and I loved every second of it. I felt like I was Annaleah, living with the grief of losing a boyfriend right alongside her. I shed a few tears as parts were just heartbreaking and I laughed at others that were meant to be funny. This little novel is definitely one that I will be holding quite dear for the rest of my life and I can imagine myself reading it when I lost someone as dear to me as Brian was to Annaleah.

Thought provoking, sentimental and sad
A wife struggles to deal with her grief over the death of her husband who drowned when they were on holiday. Years later she bumps into the doppelganger of her husband, her consequences of her actions shape the film and events afterwards.
Worth a watch, bittersweet film, portrayed so well you feel empathy for each character and how fleeting life is.
Also I wouldnt call this a comedy....more drama, romance, nostalgia and grief.
