Meine letzte Rezension Heap Earth Upon It von Chloe Michelle Howarth
This book captures the life of four siblings after a traumatic incident which had them flee their hometown. They try to build a new life and heap earth upon everything they left behind, but they can´t all keep a straight story when the new neighbours get noisy and notice that some things don´t seem to add up. The story is set in the 1950s in rual Ireland. The four siblings each have their own struggles, which are perfectly captured in their povs. One brother wants the recognition of the people around him by trying to please everyone and cover their past. The other is scared to get over what has happened and finds himself completely changed by it. The sister is anxious and obsessive and longs for someone to take care of their mess. The youngest is the abandoned one, who tries to fit into all this. When you sympathise with one, you´ll change your mind by the next chapter. This made the story really interesting and kept me reading, especially in the beginning when nothing else is really happening yet. The shadow of what has happened in their past is looming over the story and creates an eery atmosphere. The reader doesn´t get told what it is and you kind of figure it out alongside the people of the town. My favourite part of the book was the beautiful writing style. Every now and then the author hits you with a banger of a line out of nowhere. Overall I really enjoyed reading this book, even though I was hoping for even more dark and gloomy vibes. And unfortunately it took some time until things were starting to happen. But I would definitely recommend it.

    Normal People

    "Normal People" is by far the most realistic and relatable coming of age novel. Rooney´s raw and plain writing style can be confusing in the beginning but I recommend everyone, who didn´t like it the first time, to give it another go. She depicts the struggles and insecurities of high school, college and first love by having these two people who just can´t get away from each other. You get glimpses of their life following big milestones and mundane everyday life. You get literally thrown into their perspective without a real beginning or ending. This reads like the true story of someone and in the end you´re left wondering how the rest of their life continues. A heartfelt story about love, finding oneself and trying to navigate life.

    Herr der Diebe

    Zusammen mit den Geschwistern Prosper und Bo, die auf der Flucht vor ihrer Tante sind, entdecken wir das magische Venedig. Sie finden Zuflucht bei einer Bande in einem alten Kino und arbeiten von nun an für den mysteriösen Herrn der Diebe. Jedoch setzt ihre Tante einen Privatdetektiv auf sie an und schon bald sind sie alle in eine gefährliche Mission verwickelt. Cornelia Funke hat hier eine wunderschöne und herzzerreißende Geschichte geschaffen, in der es ums Erwachsenenwerden geht und wie man die Magie der Kindheit behält. Dazu kommt eine ordentliche Portion Spannung und Action. Dieses Buch kann ich wirklich jedem ans Herz legen!

    In ihrem Haus

    Ich war lange nicht mehr so beeindruckt von einem Roman. Von Anfang an packt es einen mit komplett gegensätzlichen Charakteren. Sie können sich partout nicht ausstehen, machen spitze Bemerkungen und sind sehr eigen. Nun sind Isabel und die Verlobte ihres Bruders Eva gezwungen auszukommen, da Eva übergangsweise in ihrem Haus wohnen soll. Löffel und Teller beginnen zu verschwinden und so langsam entwickelt sich etwas viel Einnehmenderes als die Gehässigkeit zwischen den beiden. Es gab viele Stellen, die ich markiert habe. Die aufgegriffenen Themen wurden sehr gut behandelt. Neben der niederländischen Nachkriegszeit geht es außerdem um Besitz und Verlangen. Gerade das Ende hat die Geschichte für mich zum Highlight gemacht.
