« Elle avait insufflé un souffle de vie dans mes poumons, illuminant mes ténèbres d'une lumière si intense que j'avais commencé à croire en un présent heureux. Oubliées les douleurs du passé, oubliées les peurs de l'avenir. C'est à ce moment-là que j'ai cessé de rejouer le passé et que je n'ai pas choisi d'appréhender l'avenir. Au lieu de ça, je nous ai choisis comme nous étions. J'ai choisi le présent. »
Alors mon extrait est plus long que l’empire state building mais j’ai adoré ce passage et c’était obligatoire de le mettre!

Ich kann die guten Bewertungen nicht ansatzweise nachvollziehen...
Was zum Ende hin passiert, ist mit das Unwahrscheinlichste, was ich je gelesen habe und hat für mich alles zerstört. Ich fand anfangs die Thematik zweier verletzter Herzen schön und ich mochte Tristan, der innerlich so kaputt war.. und auch Liz fand ich sympathisch. Aber je länger die Story ging, desto schlimmer wurde sie.. das Buch hat bei mir mit 4 Sternen angefangen und hat mit 2 Sternen geendet. Enttäuschend

I read this book in ONE day. It was amazing! I laughed and cried.
This book follows the tragic lives of two widows.
This book focuses on grief, healing and love.
There were many heavy moments but also moments of joy and laughter.
The ending took many crazy turns but ultimately brought everything together.
I definitely recommend.
Spice 1.5 Book 4.5/5

Where should I start?
Elizabeth and Tristan. Tristan and Elizabeth.
Two tragic stories that somehow intertwine more than meets the eye. Well, more than you realize, as soon as you start reading. Beautiful, heartbreaking and most of all, unpredictable. Two broken souls, falling in love with each other and trying to fins themselves. Don't think, even for a second that, there weren't any complications.
The writing was beautiful and you could see the characters' development throughout the book. Tristan and Elizabeth were two of the most likable characters I've ever read about and they were just perfect for each other. They balanced each other out perfectly and managed to heal themselves with this unique bond they formed without even realizing it. And let's just talk about how little Emma stole my heart! I also immensely enjoyed the flashbacks. They were a perfect addition to the story and the backgrounds of the characters.
I finished The Air He Breathes in a day! Which is definitely saying something. I could not put this baby down. It sucked me in since the minute I started and the twists and turns left me completely speechless. I was able to predict the smallest of the twists - not saying which one because that would obviously be a spoiler - but the rest were just...WOW! They didn't even cross my mind. Can't wait to check out more of the author's works.
Definitely recommend this if you're a fan of NA!!! And if you're looking for an amazing book to read in general!
