Zuerst einmal: Die Geschichte ist weit weniger fantastisch als es die Inhaltsangabe vermuten lässt. Ja, die Geschichte ist magisch und natürlich ist die Sache mit den Wunschkleidern ein eindeutig fantastisches Element, aber hauptsächlich ist “Drei Wunder” eine Geschichte über die ganz realen Tücken ...
I recall reading this book when I wasn't really into reading. I didn't think it was THAT good, but the plot was okay! It's just that I don't really like Modern Day based stories.
I wasn't expecting too much from this book, but it actually surprised me. The writing was great, the plot was engaging, and the story was actually quite reminiscient of Disney Channel Original Movies such as "16 Wishes" and "Harriet the Spy: Blog Wars," both of which are among my favorite DCOMs. T...
Wishful Thinking is the companion novel to Bullen’s debut novel Wish and it continues in the same vein as the first book. Ms. Bullen writes a beautiful story. She takes magical elements and weds them to very real conflicts with an expertise that has the reader charmed. I loved the complex relationsh...
I think that the story was interesting. Everyone seemed to have a lot of money... they had beach houses, boats and 3 story homes that they lived in on a normal basis. It took over half the novel for me to really get into it, which is why it took me almost a week to read. If you're just looking for s...
I really liked it.Problem is, I was so sad that she left Luke behind. I couldn't believe it. I think that when you're in love with someone you should be willing to stay with them. Leaving Luke was not okay with me. At all. I couldn't believe she made that choice. That's not what I would've done.Haze...
I started WISHFUL THINKING with no expectations, except for the hope that it would be a relatively light and quick read, as I wasn't in the mood for something that would require deep thinking or tear my heart to pieces. Thankfully, Bullen's sophomore offering did neither.Even though I wasn't expecti...
Olivia Larsen is heartbroken after losing her twinsister Violet last summer. Her parents decide it would be best to up and leave in the middle of the schoolyear and move to San Francisco, where her mother was from originally, to live in her late aunt's house. Which is pretty much falling apart. Oliv...
In Alexandra Bullen’s Wish, we are confronted by grief almost immediately. And I have to commend her on its expression as Olivia’s sorrow leaps off the pages and gathers in your throat until its difficult to breathe. She doesn’t say “I’m sad” but her actions speak for themselves and they speak loudl...
The grief/ relationship with Violet portion of the book was written well, but I had a much more difficult time with the rest, esp. the boys. Overall, not my cup of tea, but I'm game to still give Alexandra Bullen's next book a try.Olivia herself was a weak character, needy and bland. And the rest, i...
