Leitura bem leve e fluida.

Cada capítulo se passa numa realidade diferente, numa vida diferente após uma certa decisão da protagonista.

Com isso, vemos dois mundos paralelos, vemos que tem coisas que vão acontecer independente do universo que nos encontramos, enquanto outras só existem naquela realidade.

Não amei o livro, mas gostei para passar o tempo.

Apaixonante
"Maybe in another life" é um livro no qual muitas lições podem ser aprendidas. É um livro que nos ensina sobre perda, superação, amizade, família, amor, perdão e, principalmente, sobre escolhas ? e suas consequências.
Foi um livro que me emocionou do início ao fim e veio em um momento perfeito para mim. Talvez, se eu o lesse em outro momento, não teria tido a mesma experiência e apego que tenho agora.
É um livro ? também ? que me fez refletir muito sobre como nós encaramos as dificuldades impostas pela vida.
Com personagens cativantes e realistas, Taylor Jenkins Reid nos convida a pensar em uma questão bem "cabeluda": se o multiverso existe, como seria a vida de uma mesma pessoa que tomou decisões diferentes? Pessoas que são destinadas vão se encontrar em qualquer universo?

Leitura boa para passar o tempo
Para quem gosta de ler esses livros para treinar o inglês, é uma boa opção. Eu não curto muito esse tipo de livro para ler a não ser com o objetivo de melhorar o inglês, mas esse me surpreendeu mais do que eu esperava.

Entendo, Amanda? Ele também está na minha lista para praticar o inglês. Bora descobrir a escrita de Taylor.

Eu acho excelente para esse objetivo pois a linguagem é fluida. Dela eu só havia lido "Os 7 maridos de Evelyn Hugo".

Maybe in another life
Não sou capaz de descrever esse livro ou explicar como é a história. Só digo algo: leiam!

É bem clichê, mas é um primor! Eu precisava desse livro pra me tirar da ressaca literária. O inglês é bem simples e dá pra ler de boas com ajuda do próprio app Kindle.

O formato de escrita é bem novo pra mim. Pelo menos eu nunca vi ninguém escrever dessa forma (alternando realidades - pequeno spoiler).

"The future is so incredibly unpredictable that trying to plan for it is like studying for a test you'll never take."

Taylor Jenkins Reid sempre foi uma gênia
Essa é a minha segunda leitura da Taylor sem ser do seu quarteto fantástico(Evelyn, Daisy, Nina e Carrie) e não canso de falar de quão espetacular essa mulher é. Todos os livros dela que eu leio, me sinto uma observadora direta das histórias que ela conta, e sempre acabo triste, pois essas mulheres espetaculares, nesse caso, Hannah e Gabby não são reais.

É um livro rápido e gostosinho de ler. No começo pode ser meio difícil entender as linhas de tempo, mas depois que você pega o jeito não consegue mais parar de ler.

Recomendo 100%
Esse livro me surpreendeu muito, e positivamente. É uma leitura fácil e rápida por causa da escrita e porque a história te prende desde o começo. Além disso, te faz refletir sobre vários assuntos, mas principalmente sobre o ?e se?, e eu achei fantástica a forma com que isso aconteceu.
Nesse livro eu me emocionei, fiquei com raiva, surtei porque queria que um casal acontecesse logo, ri muito? foi incrível!

Maybe in another life
Segundo livro que leio da autora e não me decepcionei.
Achei a leitura fluida, por mais que em alguns momentos pareça um pouco parada.
Eu gostei de todos os personagens e amei a conclusão do livro, recomendo a leitura!

E se?
Comecei a ler esse livro duas vezes porque achei que seria insuportável. Na primeira vez não foi, mas tentei novamente depois de um tempo e até que gostei da leitura.
A autora nos dá duas possibilidades para a vida da protagonista, e o livro segue se alternando entre uma possibilidade e outra até o fim. Gosto muito desses livros que nos mostram os ?e se?s? da vida rs.

Hannah tem duas decisões a tomar e acredita que sua vida não vai mudar por causa disso. Mas acompanhar as duas linhas do tempo mostra o quanto sua vida segue estradas totalmente diferentes por causa desse pequeno momento. Ao ouvir as personagens dessa história, é interessante notar que há uma crença no destino, em como a pessoa certa vai te encontrar de qualquer forma por que o universo vai fazer a parte dele, independentemente de suas decisões. Mas, na verdade, pelo desenrolar da trama, percebemos que o mais importante não é se a mocinha e o mocinho vão ficar juntos, independente dos desencontros, ou se existe alma gêmea. a história é sobre como nossas escolhas nos levam a caminhos que serão rodeados de desafios e recompensas e, principalmente, sobre o que aprendemos com nossas experiências. E que existem várias maneiras de ser feliz. Amém!
Achei o livro bem escrito, A Taylor é realmente uma excelente autora. Mas, sinto uma certa frieza enquanto leio suas histórias. Gosto, acho bem escrito, mas não me apaixono. Esse é o segundo livro que leio dela e a sensação é a mesma. Apesar de ter gostado, e muito, do entendimento que fiz da leitura, ao terminar o livro, o que me veio à cabeça foi: “Legal, próximo! ”

Meus QUOTES de Maybe in another life - Taylor Jenkis Reid?
Azul: ?
? "I close my eyes and let the emotion wash over me. I listen to what my heart and mind are trying to tell me. I am relieved and devastated. I am scared. I am angry. I am not sure if any of this is going to be OK."

? "I breathe so hard that I exhaust myself. I am dizzy with oxygen and anguish."

? "As if she will bear some of the pain for me, as if she can take some of it off my hands."

? "And I do. Because I am alive. I may be broken and scared. But I am alive."

? ?But there are no deal breakers here.?

? "I?m trying to be better at actually asking the questions I have instead of avoiding them."

? ?From experience, I can tell you that if you go around trying to figure out what?s fair in life or whether you deserve something or not, that?s a rabbit hole that is hard to climb out of.?

? "I realize I have no normal."

? "I want to try order instead of chaos."

? "And maybe that?s because I don?t have to be a hurricane."

? "But I suppose just because something is hard to understand, that doesn?t make it any less true."

? "This is me needing to learn that you have to face the truth of a situation head-on."

? "I don?t want to believe what a person says and ignore what he does. I don?t want to see only what I want to see."

? "I want to be realistic, for once. I want to be grounded. I want to make smart decisions."

? ?The point of the story is that you should always have faith in Hannah. Because even when it looks like she?s made a terrible mistake, she?s actually one step ahead of you. That?s the moral. Things will always work out for Hannah."

? "(...) have, for well over a decade, felt like a guest in my own family."

? "I care deeply what they think of me."

? "The difference between life and death could be as simple and as uncomfortably slight as a step you take in either direction."

? "In general, I find that when you are doing something you are not supposed to be doing, the best course of action is to act as if you are absolutely supposed to be doing it."

? "I am great at pretending everything is fine. I am great at hiding the truth. I almost believe it myself for a minute."

? "How we grab on to facts and consequences looking to blame or exonerate ourselves?"

? "Nine billion choices I?ve made over the course of my life could have changed where I am right now and where I?m headed. There?s no sense focusing on just one. Unless you want to punish yourself."

? "I happen to believe that it?s God,? she says. ?But it pushes us in the right direction, keeps us on the right path."

? ?You think too much,? he says. ?That?s your problem. You?re trying too hard to find the perfect answer when an answer will do.?

? "You don?t need to find the perfect thing all the time. Just find one that works, and go with it."

? "Life is unpredictable beyond measure."

? "And part of loving someone, part of being the recipient of trust, is telling the truth even when it?s awful."

? "Life is just a series of breaths in and out. All I really have to do in this world is breathe in and then breathe out, in succession, until I die. I can do that. I can breathe in and out."

? "(...) That it?s OK to reach a breaking point with this stuff. You have to have patience with yourself.?

? "Sometimes, despite how hard you try to fight your feelings, they show up in the glassiness of your eyes, the downward turn of your lips, the shakiness of your voice, and the lump in your throat."

? "When you sit there and wish things had happened differently, you can?t just wish away the bad stuff. You have to think about all the good stuff you might lose, too. Better just to stay in the now and focus on what you can do better in the future."

? "But sometimes I wish I got to decide what I was meant to do."

? "Because regardless of our destiny, we still have to answer for our actions. We make choices, big and small, every day of our lives, and those choices have consequences. We have to face those consequences head-on, for better or worse. We don?t get to erase them just by saying we didn?t mean to. Fate or not, our lives are still the results of our choices."

? "You can only forgive yourself for the mistakes you made in the past once you know you?ll never make them again."

? "It doesn?t matter if we don?t mean to do the things we do. It doesn?t matter if it was an accident or a mistake."

? "Because regardless of our destiny, we still have to answer for our actions. We make choices, big and small, every day of our lives, and those choices have consequences."

? "You have to talk about it, even when you aren?t talking about it. And maybe that?s OK. Maybe what?s important is that you have someone to listen."

? "And I?m learning not to read too much into good things. I?m learning just to appreciate the good while you have it in your sights. Not to worry so much about what it all means and what will happen next."

? "That?s what you do when you want something. You don?t look for reasons why it won?t work. You look for reasons why it will."



Rosa: ?
? "How do you mourn something like that? How do you mourn something you never knew you had? Something you never wanted but something real, something important."

? ?I know what it means to miss you,? he says. The light turns green, and he speeds down the boulevard. ?So you?ll have to find a pretty insurmountable problem if I?m going to let you go again.?

? ?A long time. Don?t feel like you need to trick me into admitting I?ve been hung up on you for years. I?m confident enough to say it outright.?

? ?Listen, I went to that bar hoping to get you alone, hoping to talk to you, to gauge how you felt. I tried on ten different shirts to find the right one. I bought gum and kept it in my back pocket in case I had bad breath. I stood in front of the mirror and tried to get my hair to look like I didn?t do my hair. For you. You are the only one. I danced with Katherine because I was nervous talking to you. And because I want to be honest with you, I?ll admit that I don?t know what I would have done if you had turned me down on Saturday, but no matter what I would have done, it would have been because I thought you weren?t interested. If you?re interested, I?m interested. And only in you.?

? "He smiles at me as if I?m the only person in the world."

? "Do you know how heartbroken I?d be to live in a world you weren?t in??

? "I feel like myself around him. And I like myself around him."

? "I will probably always love him on some level, always hold a spot for him in my heart. But dating again, being together, that would be moving backward, wouldn?t it?"

? "And just for tonight, I want to experience how it feels to be his, to be loved by him, to believe that this is the beginning of something."

? ?Because you are the kind of person who deserves a fuss made over her. That?s why. And I?m just the guy to do that.?

? ?I just sometimes hoped that I could have something more than just fine. Someone who made me feel like I hung the moon."

? "If you love someone, if you think you could make them happy for the rest of your life together, then nothing should stop you. You should be prepared to take them as they are and deal with the consequences. Relationships aren?t neat and clean. They?re ugly and messy, and they make almost no sense except to the two people in them."

? "(...)That?s what I think. I think if you truly love someone, you accept the circumstances; you don?t hide behind them.?

? "(...)I?ll follow your lead. I?ll be the person you need me to be. Just let me be a part of this, Hannah. Let me be with you.?

? ?Pretty soon I won?t be able to reach my feet.?
?Then I?ll put your socks on. What did I tell you? There?s nothing you can do to get rid of me,? he says.
?And you meant it??
?I meant it.?

? ?I?ve been going to bakeries for months hoping to find you."

? "I have waited for it for so long, have believed so strongly that it may never happen, that it proves as intimate a gesture as any I have ever experienced. "

? "I?m married to a man who became a father because he loved me and now loves me because I made him a father."

? "He always gets me any food I want, at any time of night."

I try to pay, but Ethan won?t let me.

OK? You and me. It?s happening. Stop trying to find cracks in it.?

Romance is great. But it?s only one part of a well-rounded life.

I just don?t think that having a good boyfriend solves all my problems.

I guess it?s the small things in a marriage that grate on you the most.

I find myself unable to hold back the smile that insists on shining through my face. I shake my head at myself, laughing at how ridiculous I?m being. But also, for a moment, I consider staying awake all night. I consider waiting around to see when he comes back. But that?s crazy. He?s probably nice to all of his patients. Probably tells all the women they?re pretty. I?m just bored and lonely in this place. Desperate for something interesting, something good.

Ethan grabs my hand at a stop sign. He kisses my cheek at a red light.

but I always think to myself that knowing your kid doesn?t need you may hurt, but knowing your kid did, and you weren?t there . . . it?s absolutely unbearable.?

We?ve said it many times to each other, but this time, this particular time, I can feel it in my chest.

he moves a fallen hair out of my face.

?You?re badass, you know that??

?The Godfather,?

?Oh, calm down. I was always going to buy you two things,? he says. ?I?m just trying to help you be decisive.?

When people are nice and sincere and they don?t fire back with smart-ass remarks, it makes my harmless sarcastic words seem downright rude.

Anger is a part of healing.

I?m too much of an idiot to sacrifice the small stuff in order to have the big stuff.

?Maybe in another life,?




duda maia 20/07/2022

o enredo é muito interessante, mas o jeito que foi desenvolvido deixa a leitura muito cansativa, o que me fez ficar presa nele tanto tempo. não me agradou muito, principalmente quando as mesmas conversas, com as mesmas palavras, aconteciam duas vezes nos dois universos.
dessa vez a taylor não conseguiu me conquistar
