Joe on Groix Island (lies off Lorient, Brittany) is drowning in grief for the loss of his much loved wife Lou. At the will reading he is given a challenge by Lou in which he has to make their grown up children Cyrian and Sarah happy, to bring a smile to their faces and he has two months in which to do it. His relationship with Cyrian is strained to say the least. The story is told in multiple points of view including Lou.
I’m not entirely sure what to make of this book. I really like the sentiments and the message of the book which is basically that love conquers all and there are sections that I enjoy. The setting in La Groix is lovely and you can tell how much Joe loves it there, it’s in his blood. The will opens a can of worms which is interesting as this is a family at odds. Some characters are likeable and some become more likeable. I like Joe’s granddaughters Apple and Charlotte points of view which is mostly charming, especially Apple and their perspectives are illuminating about the adults and their behaviour. There is some bitter resentment built on misunderstanding and you do wonder at times, who exactly are the adults? I quite like the chatty style which makes for some lively storytelling. Through this we can ‘see’ Lou and hear her voice and you realise that even from the grave she is manipulating for change for the better and it’s as if she and Joe are conversing.
However, there are far too many points of view and it becomes dizzying and some of it is just plain weird. The constant switching of perspectives halts the flow and sometimes Apple and Charlotte (😋) sound like sweet ten year olds but at others their voices seem too old for their years. There’s a lot of inconsequential detail which adds little. The ending is predictable and a bit cheesy although I don’t dislike it!
Overall. I like the message, some sections are sweet, charming and poignant and others rather bewildering.
With thanks to NetGalley and Hodder and Stoughton for the arc in return for an honest review.

Lou suffers from a rare type of dementia and dies in her early fifties. She leaves behind a message in a bottle, charging her husband Joe a challenging task: he has two months to reunite their patchwork family, who's members have fallen out with each other. Luckily for him, Lou has thought of everything to help him along with, a list of activities and recipes.
What a beautifully written story this is. It starts with Lou's funeral. She leaves behind her husband Joe and their two adult children. She wants Joe to get her family back talking again. The story is told from multiple points of view. The book is filled with drama and love. It's bith heart-warming and heart-breaking. Emotions run wild. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

How well you enjoy a book is highly dependent on what your state of mind is when you pick it up. When you pick up a book at the right time, it speaks to your heart. Thus, what might have ended up as an average read at any other time ends up connecting with your emotions deeply. Luckily for me (and for the author), I picked up this book at the right time.
Joseph, a retired cardiologist, has recently lost his wife of many years to dementia. As she was just in her late fifties, he isn’t mentally prepared for her death and finds himself struggling to go on living without her. Imagine his surprise when he finds that his wife Lou’s final wish is that he spend the next two months reuniting his discordant family members and making sure that they are truly happy. Their family includes their son Cyrian, his wife Albane and daughter Charlotte, extending to his ex-girlfriend Maëlle and daughter Apple, and their daughter Sarah, who is determined not to engage in long-term relationships because of her disability. Ensuring happiness for this motley group isn’t easy and Joseph, who hasn’t been a hands-on father any time before, finds that his assumptions about his family’s emotional status quo are quite wrong.
The storyline is very straightforward, and to a great extent, predictable. Each of the characters mentioned above has their share of struggles and are portrayed in a very human way rather than black or white. I love writers that do this. Reading too many goody-goody characters can be harmful for your health. :P I especially loved the way the granddaughters were portrayed with sass and gumption rather than plain old sugar and spice.
What turns this book from a typical general fiction novel to an intriguing one is its writing style. Every single main character in this novel (YES, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM!) finds a voice in the story. So the plot comes to you from the perspectives of the parents Joseph and Lou (the latter speaking from the place beyond death), the children Cyrian and Sarah, their past and present love interests (Danny, Maëlle, Albane, Patrice, and Federico), the grandchildren Apple and Charlotte, AND three additional minor characters. That’s fourteen character voices in a single book! Yet, the book doesn't get overwhelming but helps you connect better to the individual behind the voice. To take it a notch higher, most of the main character perspectives are written in first person and addressed to second person Lou. This makes their stories feel even more intimate as they talk from their hearts to the one who is no more. The rest of the povs are written in third person, and you can sense the feeling of this narrator being an outsider because he/she isn’t speaking to Lou directly. The distinction is really well demarcated.
One very special character in the book who doesn’t get an independent narrative is Groix Island, the place where the entire story is set. What a perfect setting it is for this story! You will find yourself longing to be at the island, amid the gulls, watching the cold waves thrashing on the rocky shores. At least half of the magic of the story is because of the locale. The internal conflicts of the characters are perfectly complemented by the stoic atmosphere of the island, its reliable presence an anchor to the emotionally adrift people in the story. The book highlights, time and again, the need to look deeper in people's hearts rather than judge them by face value and surface actions. Every single character in the book has hidden secrets, some of which don’t get revealed to the rest even after the story is over.
The book isn’t perfect. I have a strong feeling that there is something major lost in translation here. The original French version, “Entre ciel et Lou” (Between the sky and Lou), has a solid GR rating with mostly 4 or 5 stars. The English version’s rating is vehemently clustered around the 4 star mark. While I didn’t find any flaw with the language used per se, I couldn’t help finding the passion behind the words missing in many cases. The biggest clue to this lacuna lies in the title. “A Bucket List to Die For” is a complete misnomer as the story has nothing to do with a bucket list. The title and the cover make the book appear like a chick-lit novel, which it isn’t, though it does have its share of humour and light moments. The book is a strongly emotional drama and those who pick it up in the hope of light relief will be disappointed.
Another problem could be the pace of the story. It is really very slow and takes a long time to unfold. For me, it clicked because I’m in a state of mind where I can’t concentrate on any page for more than a few minutes. If you are looking for a quick story, this book might not work for you.
However, as I said, the timing was perfect for me as the book suited my current mood. In a way, it was cathartic for me to read this. It’s a book that deals with grief, loneliness, friendship, health issues, family relationships (spousal, parental and sibling), love, death, trust, heartbreaks… It offers an emotional release for every mood without inundating your senses. So I’m quite happy with this read. It offered me just what I needed—a light, emotional read--without overwhelming me. I would rate it a 4.25.
Thank you, NetGalley and Hodder Paperbacks, for the Advanced Review Copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.

Сърдечна и тъжна човешка история написана по френски. Французите ще се окажат едни от най-страстните хора , скрити под малко надменната си фасада.
От опита , който неминуемо се натрупва и от многото контакти с хора, също така прочетените книги , клоня към мнение , че французите са едни от най-емоционалните хора. Приемат лично и присърце всяко събитие. Преживяват дълбоко , любят се страстно, държат се властно, хранят се сладострастно :)

3.5 grief stars
This one focuses on the grief of an entire family when the matriarch dies too young from dementia. We have lots of points of view (probably too many) but most of the book is from the surviving spouse – Joe’s – perspective.
The setting is my favorite part of the book, the island of Groix, off the coast of Brittany, France. It was fascinating to read about island life and how passionate some of the residents are there.
The reading of Lou’s will sets in motion most of the action for the book. Lou has tasked Joe with trying to make their family members happy in a short amount of time. This is a daunting task as Joe doesn’t have the best relationship with his adult son, Cyrian. Joe has to figure out how to make Cyrian happier in his life and marriage and his daughter Sarah has romantic troubles of her own. Throw in two young girls, Joe’s granddaughters – Apple and Charlotte – and there are lots of people in the mix in this one!
I wasn’t sure if Joe could pull it off in time, but the journey was interesting. The characters grew on me. We also get to hear from Lou from the beyond, which added another unique element to the book. Overall I liked this one, but there were some issues, like too many characters and details, and the writing style took some getting used to for me.

Lorraine Fouchet m’a émue aux larmes autant qu’elle m’a fait sourire et rire. Ce roman est un concentré de tout ce qui fait la vie. Avec simplicité, il évoque cette famille qui, dans les moments les plus douloureux, va réapprendre à se connaître et à s’aimer. C’est tout simplement beau.

Quelle belle idée que de planter le décor à l'île de Groix. Je m'y voyais. Les embruns, l'air iodé, les goélands au dessus de nos têtes, les crêperies et le port... J'aurais pu tomber amoureuse de ce livre juste pour cet endroit.
Et pourtant, je suis tombée amoureuse une deuxième fois.
De la douceur, la justesse et la magie de la plume de Lorraine Fouchet.
Qui a su me toucher en plein cœur.
Je suis tombée amoureuse de ses personnages qui ont mal au cœur et qui cherchent leur chemin.
Quel beau récit de cette famille tourmentée, quel bonheur d'évoluer à leurs côtés. Dans leurs failles, leurs faux espoirs, leurs déconvenues. Mais aussi dans les petits moments de bonheur et d'amour.
L'alternance des points de vue des personnages donne de la vie au récit. Qui fait qu'on a envie de connaître le fin mot de l'histoire.
C'est peut-être parfois trop parfait mais je m'en fiche.
Un vrai roman d'amour à l'atmosphère particulière. Un hymne à la vie, la famille et l'amour.
Triste souvent mais terriblement réconfortant.
Une vraie lecture doudou qui fait du bien à l'âme <3

A beautiful and heartwarming story. It was an interesting read with takes you on a journey involving lots of family drama, issues and how often death of a loved one changes the dynamics of relationships.
The only thing I couldn't figure out was the choice of the title for the book.
Thank You NetGalley and Hodder & Stoughton for this ARC!

C’est le premier roman que je lis de Lorraine Fouchet pourtant auteure de presque vingt romans. La couverture me faisait de l’oeil à la Fnac et je me suis laissée tenter.
Lire la suite
J’ai dévoré « Entre ciel et Lou » en deux jours, j’avais besoin d’un peu de douceur après ma lecture de Vernon Subutex…
Ce livre qui a remporté plusieurs prix (Prix Ouest 2016, Prix Bretagne – Priz Breizh 2016, Prix Les Petits Mots des Libraires 2017) remplit ses promesses. Lorraine Fouchet a écrit une jolie histoire de famille remplie d’émotions, qui aborde les sujets du deuil, de la famille et du couple avec délicatesse.
J’ai aimé l’écriture, notamment toutes les descriptions de l’Ile de Groix et de la Bretagne participent à la création d’une atmosphère dans laquelle on a envie de se blottir pour oublier le quotidien. On finit, au fil des pages, par sentir le goût du sel des embruns et du beurre fondu (du gâteau local dont j’ai oublié le nom imprononçable…) au bout de sa langue.
Il s’agit d’un roman choral dont tous les personnages prennent la parole tour à tour. Du Grand-Père qui a perdu le grand amour de sa vie à la petite-fille qui se souvient de sa Grand-Mère en passant par les enfants qui ont perdu leur mère. Ils sont tous un peu paumés, ils vont tous se retrouver.
La fin est très touchante (ok, j’ai presque pleuré…), même si on la voit venir. J’ai toutefois apprécié que malgré tous les bons sentiments évidemment présents dans ce roman feel-good, les personnages ne soient pas tous trop gentils ou trop sympathiques. Ils font des erreurs, blessent ceux qu’ils aiment, ont des regrets et des remords. Bref, une histoire de famille avec des humains normaux auxquels on peut s’identifier.
Entre Ciel et Lou est un roman doudou qui se lit facilement et avec beaucoup de plaisir. À lire si vous aimez les romans feel-good qui donnent le sourire, à éviter si les histoires trop pleines de bons sentiments ou trop optimistes vous agacent. Pour ma part, j’ai adoré.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for this arc in return for an honest review all of my opinions are my own.
I found this book quite hard to get into at first due to the writing style, however, I chose to stick with it and I am so glad that I did.
The story follows Joe whose wife, Lou, has died from a rare form of dementia. She has left behind a challenge for him, to reunite their estranged family. She has given him two months to achieve this task and to help him she has left behind a list of activities and recipes. At the beginning the family is so fractured that you can understand the immense task that Joe faces from the very start.
The timeline of the novel spans a couple of months and is told through a multitude of different narratives which I liked as it really gave the reader a feel for the different characters and allowed you to see the family rift and dynamics through their eyes.
I found the plot original and creative, I have read books with a similar premise before but not exactly the same which again i liked and the novel is both heart-warming and heart-breaking in equal measure, I felt a variety of different emotions when reading it.

February 19, 2019J’abandonne ! La narration ne me plait pas, je ne suis pas attachée aux personnages (à part peut-être Sarah), j’ai envie de lire autre chose. Peut-être un peu trop de bons sentiments pour moi.
Une résolution 2019 : ne pas hésiter à abandonner un livre mais essayer d’en lire au moins 1/3 pour être sûre de ne pas regretter. Ça me semble honnête, comme deal !

Zeker geraakt door dit boek. Het boek beschrijft een situatie waar ik middenin zit, het verliezen van een dierbare, voor mij mijn vader. Het boek is grappig, vlot geschreven en raakte mij vooral dus door de overeenkomsten. Misschien deze recensie wat vertroebeld door de raakvlakken, maar ik vond het bijZonder. Met een traan maar vooral met een lach gelezen.

„Понякога правя всичко напук, за да ме намразят хората. Причинявам болка на другите, за да ми стане по-леко.“
„– Вярваш ли в рая и ада?
- Мама вярва. Според татко адът са другите.“
„Непоносимо свестен човек е.“
„Вечерта, когато лодката на баща ми се върна без него, аз си сложих на раменете дебелия му пуловер и така се затоплих за живота, който щеше да ми се наложи да водя сам.“
„Тя казва, че човек няма нужда от приятели, щом обича майка си.“
„Щастието е заразно. (...) Този текст няма да се самоунищожи.“
„– Значи ще си остане нещастен?
– Това е натрапчиво състояние – казва Дани със заучено чувствен гърлен смях.
– Не, това е мисия – казвам аз и се изправям.“
„Сигурна съм, че ме чуваш, но не е честно – аз ти разказвам всичко, а ти не ми разправяш нищо.“
„Нямам рак, никога няма да имам, аз съм против.“
„– Вярваш ли в рая и ада?

Wow what a beautiful, beautiful book!
It shreds your heart to pieces and then it puts them back, but in a better order than before.
The first scene, when Joe (with a turquoise "joseph" on his shoulders) speaks to Lou, is heartbreaking, as is the one when Joe and Sara dance together to no music.
This book manages to be tears jerking and funny at the same time. Wonderfully written!! Multiple narrators, so many I lost counts, but so well written that it not confusing at all.
Definitely recommended!

Quizá 3,5 estrellas.
Estamos ante un libro tierno y muy bien intencionado aunque a veces demasiado melodramatico y también previsible.
Nos da una visión de la historia desde múltiples puntos de vista, los de todos y cada uno de los personajes, las que más me han gustado son las de las dos niñas.
Aunque previsible, me ha ayudado a recordar lo importante que es apoyarnos en los demás para sentirnos acompañados.

Mais que c'était beau

Un bel hommage à Groix, à la famille, au difficile travail de parent. Une écriture prenante, émouvante avec des phrases magnifiques.
Pas un coup de coeur à cause des dialogues manquants parfois de naturels à force d'être travaillés, et à cause de tous ces personnages qui finissent par être trop gentils (à part Dany qui est trop méchante).
Mais quand même une très très belle lecture.

Между небом и тобой / Лоррен Фуше
Entre ciel et lou / Lorraine Fouchet
Sənlə göy arasında / Lorren Fuşe
Məkan: Fransa, Qrua adası (aşağıda şəkillərini vermişəm... kaş kitabı bitirmədən şəkillərinə baxaydım...)
Roman Lunun ölümü ilə başlayır... Əri kardioloq Jo sevimli həyat yoldaşını son mənzilə yola salır... Jonun dilindən tökülən sevgi sözləri məni valeh elədi... Bununla başa düşürük ki cütlüyün arasında böyük bir məhəbbət var imiş...
Cütlüyün iki övladı var: Sara və Sirian...
Sirian Parisdə arvadı və 9 yaşlı qızı Julyet ilə yaşayır... Üstəlik Qrua adasında birinci həyat yoldaşı və ondan olan Pomm adlı bir qızı daha var... Sirian birinci arvadı adada qalmağı seçdiyinə görə ondan boşanmış... İkinci arvadı hamilə qaldığı üçün onunla evlənmək məcburiyyətində qlmışdır... Burdan başa düşürük ki, Sirian xoşbəxt deyil...
Sara evliliyinə bir neçə gün qalmış xəstələnib əsa ilə gəzməyə məhkum qaldığı üçün nişanlısı Patris tərəfindən tərk edilmiş bir qadındır... Özü kinoşünasdır... Tanış olduğu kişilərlə iki dəfədən artıq görüşmür... Qısası o da xoşbəxt deyil...
Yas mərasimindən sonra ailəni natariusa çağırırlar... Natarius bildirir ki, həyat yoldaşı vəfat etmədən əvvəl ona məktub yazıb... Və başlayır oxumağa... "Jo sən mənə xəyanət etdin..." cümləsinə çatanda Jo övladlarını otaqdan çıxarmalı olur... Sonrasında Lu məktubunda ərinə bir vəsiət edir... Kitab bu vəsiyyətin ətrafında dövr edir...
Gözəl məkan, gözəl duyğular, gözəl süjet...
Əsər məni dincəltdi... Düzdü mədəniyyət fərqliliyindən dolayı ağız büzdüyüm yerlər oldu, amma ümumi götürəndə yazıçının ideası... çatdırmaq istədikləri təqdirəlayiqdir... Yazıçının rus dilinə tərcümə olunan ilk kitabıdır... Türk dilinə heç bir kitabı tərcümə olunmayıb... Rusiyada böyük maraqla qarşılandı... Elə ona görə oxudum...
Son qərarım odur ki, mənə görə avropalı yazıçılar... amerikalı yazıçılardan daha qəşəng yazırlar...

4.5 stars !!!
J'ai été agréablement surprise par cette belle histoire d'une famille qui va droit dans le mur, complètement paralysée par ses émotions, et qui a trop l'habitude de conserver pour elle ses vérités, en contenant aussi ses élans affectifs.
Et puis il y a aussi le cadre de l'île de Groix, véritable pivot de l'intrigue, et surtout un appel du pied pour y déposer ses bagages. C'est un cocon hors du temps, un refuge bienveillant, avec des personnages attachants. Cette bulle a donc su m'envelopper tout naturellement, et je m'y suis sentie très bien. Parfaitement à mon aise. J'étais prête pour écouter l'histoire de Jo, face au nouveau challenge de sa vie, un défi pour le forcer à ne pas couler à pic non plus, car notre homme est vraiment très, très triste d'avoir perdu son alter ego.
Pour s'accrocher à la vie, il se tourne vers ses enfants qu'il ne comprend plus. Au départ, il est un peu pataud dans ses tentatives de “colmatage”, et puis au fil du temps ses stratagèmes vont prendre forme et approcher le rêve inaccessible. Youhou.
C'est vraiment une chouette lecture, qui envoie de bonnes ondes et qui fait se sentir #heureux.

Jag har hört så bra och fint om denna bok. Men jag föll inte lika hårt som jag hoppats.
Detta är nog min första lästa bok skriven av en fransk författar (: En sån sak, kul!
En väldigt fin skriven roman om trassliga relationer, outredda känslor, förtvivlan och lycka, men kanske främst hopp. Jag upplevde att 2/4 delen var som en uppförsbacke, kändes så lååång. Men 3dje och sista delen av boken var underbart fin, men inte riktigt min cup of Tea så att säga.

Un coup de coeur pour ce petit livre qui donne envie de Bretagne!

3,5 ✨ une jolie lecture, les liens familiaux, la maladie, j’aurais aimé être plus touchée encore par le récit, mais l’histoire est belle

Leuke Bretonse sfeer en fijn vakantieboek, zeker als je in Bretagne bent.

Je n'avais jamais lu de livre de Lorraine Fouchet et j'ai beaucoup apprécié cette lecture.
J'ai trouvé l'histoire belle et touchante et je me suis beaucoup attachée à cette jolie famille. Il y a tout de même pas mal de clichés tout au long de l'histoire mais cela passe assez bien car les personnages sont bien écrits et suffisamment approfondis par l'auteure.
J'ai adoré le cadre breton qui est très présent dans l'histoire et même au centre du livre. Les descriptions de l'île de Groix sont belles et rendent le récit très vivant.
Je n'ai pas eu le coup de coeur que j'attendais, sûrement en raison de certaines situations un peu trop tirées par les cheveux ainsi que l'abus de bons sentiments qui m'agace toujours un peu à la longue... Mais cela reste une excellente lecture bien meilleure que d'autres romans du même genre que j'ai pu lire !

Un joli roman qui m'a tout d'abord attiré par sa couverture et que je referme avec nostalgie.
Grâce à un décor géographique dépaysant : l'île de Groix, j'ai été transportée dès les premières pages.
Le choix de l'auteur de faire parler tour à tour chaque membre de la famille, nous permet un attachement quasi-immédiat aux personnages.
Et puis après ? On se laisse porter par la plume de Lorraine Fouchet et la tendre histoire de Lou et sa famille. Je recommande.

3,5/5
Начебто і книга непогана, але я зрозуміла, що французька сентиментальна література - не зовсім моє :)
Сподобалося, як описуються стосунки батька та його дорослих дітей, хоча мені не є близькою ідея про те, що нібито інша людина краще розуміє, що таке щастя.
Описи самого острову, де відбувається більшість подій роману, прикольні, якщо коли-небудь побуваю у Франції, хотіла би відвідати Груа.

This is such a beautifully written book. So emotional and sensitively handled. Lou is a wonderful character who lives on in the chapters and her challenge to Joe and the family. It’s a reminder that despite all that life throws at you, family needs to remain at the heart of everything.

Mais quel bonheur de lecture !!!!
Je n'ai pas aimé un livre comme celui ci depuis fort fort longtemps.
Obligé de m'arrêter de lire pour en garder un peu... envie de reprendre dès que je le lâchais.

Tänk om den första bok jag läser i år sätter nivån för årets kommande läsning, det vore fantastiskt. För det är precis vad den här romanen är, fantastisk. Lågmäld med snåriga relationer och outredda känslor, förtvivlan och lycka, men mest av allt hopp. Och så någon komisk kommentar just när det är som mörkast, så att man skrattar till precis när tårarna är på väg. En berättelse som känns lika äkta som livet självt.
Jo och Lou har lämnat det hektiska Parislivet där Jo arbetat som specialistläkare. De njuter av att få bli gamla tillsammans på sin favoritplats på jorden, den lilla ön Groix utanför Bretagnes kust i Frankrike. Ön är bara sju kilometer lång och tre kilometer bred med drygt 2000 invånare, vilket gör stämningen mellan öborna familjär.
Vårt första möte blir med Jo, när han sitter längst fram i kyrkan med rödsprängda ögon på sin älskade hustrus begravning och undrar vad det var som gick fel. Det borde ju ha varit han som lämnade först, inte hon, så full av liv och bara drygt femtio. Hon var den varmhjärtade och omtänksamma, den som höll ihop familjen och kontakten med vännerna. Han gav sin kärlek och tid till henne och till arbetet, och till Pomme, ett av barnbarnen. För övriga i familjen har han varit mer som en skuggfigur, som funnits där men inte varit särskilt engagerad eller delaktig.
Lous plötsliga bortgång sätter igång en lång rad av händelser då det mesta blir ifrågasatt och omprövat. Som sin sista vilja ger Lou i uppdrag till Jo att se till att deras barn blir lyckliga:
”Du var en fantastisk älskare, en underbar make, men en frånvarande far. Din far och din farfar gav sig ut på sjön och du har gjort samma sak. Dina förfäder vigde sina liv åt havet, själv vigde du ditt åt sjukhuset. Våra barn har klarat sig bra yrkesmässigt, men de är inte lyckliga. Att juristen läser upp det här brevet för dig i dag betyder att jag inte längre kan göra något för dem. Det är upp till dig nu.” (citat från sidan 37)
Vi får följa hur familjen kämpar på olika sätt för att nå fram till varandra, nu när Lou inte finns med dem längre som det sammanhållande kitt som hållit ihop familjen. Precis som i de flesta familjer rymmer den här familjen både hemligheter och lögner, svek, brustna relationer och otrohetsaffärer. Men också väldigt mycket ömhet, värme och kärlek.
Min abstinens när boken var utläst, efter den underbara berättelsen och den mysiga miljön, fick mig att läsa på om ön Groix och staden Lorient, som ligger drygt en mil från ön på fastlandet. Groix hamnar definitivt på min bucket list över platser jag vill besöka.
Mellan himmel och Lou är den första bok jag läser av Lorraine Fouchet, nu vill jag läsa flera. Jag ser fram emot nästa översatta bok som kommer i juni i år; Poste restante, ett brev till Locmaria, som också utspelar sig på ön Groix.
