Reseñas
A Little Life is a book written for the internet, because it is divisive in terms of the characters, their relationships and the author itself. While their are plenty of other reviews and critics diving deep into the book itself, I do think it is a once in a lifetime read and one hell of a conversation starter.
No words. This was so heartwrenching and beautiful and gorgeously written
✨️Book Review✨️A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5Most depressing book I have ever read. Don't get me wrong there were some great characters in the book and the relationship between Jude and his lifelong friends was great. But it was so depressing and sad and chaotic and just full of the stuff in life no-one should have to deal with.There's a lot of triggers in this book, please check before reading. D3ath, rap3, suicid3, self-harm and much much more. Do not read this book if you are in a bad headspace mentally!!!! Absolute beastly length of an audiobook at 33 hours and I finished it with approx. 5 minutes before it was due to be returned with the library. I'm not sure if I'm glad I persevered with it, as there was no glimmer of hope in this at all. The only thing I can say is, it define makes you appreciate your life.
Bueno, por fin me leí este libro tan mencionado por todos lados donde decían que es un libro desgarrador, traumatizante y doloroso.Bien, en mi opinión si tienen razón. Es un libro fuerte que toca temas muy sensibles y delicados, donde quien haya visto o padecido por ellos, sufre mucho al momento de leerlo.No quiero decir que no me haya afectado, porque sería una mentira. Sí, hubieron partes en las que sentí asco y enojo; desesperación y tristeza; y otros en los que llegué a sentir muchas emociones, incluyendo risas, ternura y felicidad. Pero llegué a un punto en el que dije: ya no, por favor ya no. Que haga lo que tenga que hacer para ya no sufrir.Sí, es cruel, pero sé que muchos también llegaron a pensar en ello.Es un libro que tiene capítulos muy extensos y eso no mucho me gusta, jeje. Tomo en cuenta también que me costó un poco adaptarme al ritmo de la lectura y a la información que nos proporcionan, pero se acostumbra uno conforme se avanza. Otra cosa es que hubieron pedazos de los capítulos que me hacían dormirme, en todo momento, pero si hubieron como 10 pedazos que sí.Es un libro que se tiene que saber a quién se recomienda y a quien no. No me gustaría que alguien que haya pasado por los temas que toca el libro lo leyera, ya que puede ser muy fuerte.
Hmmm.... this book really had alot of trauma n tbh too much trauma on 1 guy. I did like the story in a nutshell but i do think that's it's extra long for my liking. The characters were okay-ish n Jude?
This book broke me at my core, but it was so well written! I will say it is heavy on the trigger warnings. I understand now why people say to not read it but I’m so glad that I did.
The plot was good, however I felt like there were a lot of unnecessary details and slow moving parts of the book.
Besides the fact that Jude managed to become so successful and rich despite his crippling depression, which made it hard to get behind, I really enjoyed this character tapestry. Did not shed a tear though, but that's a me problem.
My friends did tell me about this book, but I didn’t want to listen. I’m speechless.
I marked this book as hopeful but beware because all hopefulness is crushed. I don’t think I am better for reading this book. Was it entertaining? Meh. It just made me angry. Yes, I would recommend this book to someone I don’t like
I didn't think I'd like this. It took me until about... page 300 to really get into it. Emotionally and mentally, I am destroyed. I need a drink. Or something lighter.
