Roo

Five years ago, I walked away from Sunbury, Oregon, and left my best friend behind.

The move was supposed to get my life on track. I even had a list.

Life changing epilepsy surgery. Check.

See the world. Check.

Get over my straight best friend … Not exactly.

No matter where I go or who I meet, I can’t let Tanner go.

I’m back to tell him how I feel. To get the closure I need once and for all.

Only now I’m here and falling for him all over again, it’s getting harder to say the words.

Because once I have my closure, I’ll be gone.

And this time it will be for good.


Tanner

When my best friend, Roo, left for Australia, it was the worst day of my life.

I thought we’d have each other always.

But Roo needed the surgery so I let him go, thinking he’d come straight back.

Five years is a long time.

Now he’s here, all I want is to hold on tight.

I need to show him what he means to me.

The problem is, I’m not exactly sure what that is.

My draw to him has always been confusing and different—everyone in town says so. But I struggle to understand it.

All I know is I won’t survive him leaving again.

And I’ll do anything to make him stay.

Licking Thicket er et rigtig charmerende bekendskab. Man kan ikke lade være med at smile, når man læser

Brooks Johnson’s Words To Live By:

When returning to Licking Thicket, TN, for the first time in ten years to reunite with your nosy neighbors, heart-broken ex-girlfriend, and matchmaking mama who never quite believed you were gay, it’s best to bring a fake boyfriend as backup... 

Just don’t be surprised when your ex-girlfriend does the same. 

And when her incredibly hot fake boyfriend becomes the one island of calm in a sea of bovine-based insanity, it’s best to exercise caution… especially when he pushes you up against the rough barn wall to check you very thoroughly for splinters...

Just don’t be surprised if you fall head-over-hooves in love with him.

Svenske Sara rejser til en lille by i USA for at besøge en ældre dame, Amy, som hun har skrevet breve om bøger og livet med. Men da hun ankommer viser det sig, at Amy lige er død. Byens indbyggere tager sig af hende, og beslutter sig for, at de vil sikre sig, at hun bliver.

Det er en god og ikke mindst underholdende bog om bøger, landsbyliv og livet. Man kan ikke andet end holde af de forskellige personligheder.
Jeg ville gerne have haft lidt mere bogsnak, men det er også det eneste jeg har at udsætte på den.

Kollektivroman om menneskene og den landsby de bor i. En roman om liv, længsler og indbyrdes kærlighedsforhold.


Ret interessant bog om de forskellige typer der kan findes i en landsby i udkantsdanmark. Den måtte gerne have været længere, så man lærte personerne lidt bedre at kende, men den er rigtig som et nedslag i et landsbyliv, hvor vi både læser om de lokale og tilflytteren.
