Saben que es un género con el que en general no me llevo. Este fue el primer contemporáneo que no se me hizo aburrido. De hecho, fue muy atrapante y lo leí en dos días 🙈 Another issue I had was that at times I felt as though the story dragged. There were so many side quests going on, too many subplots. Also, the karmic justice bestowed by the universe felt forced at times. I think the book would have been better without it.
Al comienzo Prudence me caía un poco mal, pero después la empecé a querer más. A Quint lo amé desde la primera página. Add in a crew of awesome friends and side characters, karaoke Tuesdays, karmic magic, saving cute sea life, Beatle’s references, and a bit of a real life villain sub-plot and I thought this story was entertaining. I think that anyone can enjoy this read, but I definitely think it will work for older middle grade and younger YA readers. The law of connection invites you to slow down and live in the present. What you do in this very moment will impact the future. It's a reminder to stay mindful that even the smallest action will reverberate far into the future. Everything is connected. the law of focusThe law of significance can be summed up by the words of Rumi, "you are not a drop in the ocean, you are the entire ocean in a drop." This means that the entire world is inside of you, and you can create anything you want. You are powerful, significant and unique. Let that uniqueness inspire others. Final Thoughts The law of humility states that we must accept what "is." It's futile to fight against the things you have no control over. They simply are what they are, and they must be accepted with grace and humility. Let go of the expectations of how you think things should be. I think my biggest issue with this book is that it’s a romance, but the characters have no chemistry and are just flat. I felt like the main male character was just too perfect, he was given no flaws, and the “flaws” that we were supposed to believe were true were so obviously false (you’ll see what I mean if or when you read the book). This was a lot of fun, and even though Pru gave me stress, she was such a refreshing protagonist. The writing and characterization were on point. If you love The Beatles, and you love ambitious characters, definitely give this one a read. Dear Prudence: quirky, overachiever, A-grade exemplary student, ambitious, a little self-absorbed, judgmental because she’s obsessed to be perfectionist! It’s a challenging heroine to feel sympathy! At first chapters you love to hate her. Then she gains a spiritual power like being a karma bitch or let’s define her as divine punisher.
It really did take a bit for me to get into this, but once Prudence started softening up I enjoyed it much more. Quint is fun from the start, and I really love the relationship between Prudence and Jude, even though he treats her way better than she deserves sometimes. Ari is cool, too - I love how generous and warm she is, and I wish she'd been in more of the story. Personal development, or the process of working on yourself, is the key to creating positive change in life. It's futile to attempt to change others; you can only change that which you can control, which is yourself!A lot of people are going to love this. I found the writing really addictive, and got to a point where I was surprised to realise I was so close to finishing it. It's pretty adorable, with characters that are easy to fall in love with and sea creatures that will steal your heart. The drama may be slightly predictable, but the relationship dynamics make it totally worth while.
Great Deal
