Read this book for the good thoughts.
Synopsis: All her life, Elise Dembowski has been an outsider. Starting a new school, she dreams of fitting in at last – but when her best attempts at popularity fail, she almost gives up. Then she stumbles upon a secret warehouse party. There, at night, Elise can be a different person, making real friends, falling in love for the first time, and finding her true passion – DJing.
But when her real and secret lives collide, she has to make a decision once and for all: just who is the real Elise?
An irresistible novel about hope, heartbreak and the power of music to bring people together.
The book, for starters is AWESOME! Yes, the chapters are kinda long and you fall asleep after reading one and a half chapter. Well, I did. But my highlighter was always close at hand. Chapter 17/20 had so many good lines. So true.
The book is not at all girly. It's another book about bullying and how other people affect one's life so much. Their thoughts, comments and judgements can almost break a person. Shatter them to pieces. It took me almost three days to finish it because of events and stuff I had to do but also because the chapters were too big compared other books I`ve read. But this book is now one of my favourites.
I suggest you read it if you wanna know how living a double life turns out for a person.
Like always I will post a few lines that I really liked from the book.
You think it's so easy to change yourself. You think it's so easy, but it's not. True, things don't stay the same forever : couches are replaced, boys leave, you discover a song, your body becomes forever scarred. And with each of these moments, you change and change again, your true self spinning, shifting positions- but always at last it returns to you, like a dancer on the floor. Because throughout it all, you are still always, you: beautiful and bruised, known and unknowable. And isn't that- just you- enough?
X Happy Reading, folks! X
