[Anita Bianchi · Rating 4 out of 5]

Ultimamente non mi attirano molto i romanzi con protagonisti dei cantanti ma, leggendo la trama ho deciso di dargli un'opportunità. A convincermi è stato sopratutto il fatto che quest'uomo ricco e famoso volesse tornare a vivere come una persona comune per ritrovare la vera passione che lo aveva portato al successo. Accade un pò per caso ma, quelli che per Cole dovevano essere alcuni giorni di vita normale viaggiando attraverso l'America, si trasformano in settimane e poi in mesi. Grazie a vecchi amici ritrovati e a nuove conoscenze riscoprirà la gioia, la passione per il suo lavoro ma anche i fondamentali legami con la sua famiglia. E' un romanzo un pò vecchiotto, e per certi aspetti si vede, ma lo consiglio comunque per la sua dolcezza e perchè la storia di una moderna "Cenerentola" fa sempre breccia nel cuore di noi ragazze!

I really liked this book a lot. I felt you saw a family growing. I felt their were some truly poignant moments, such as the brothers sharing the birthday cake the younger brother had gotten for himself, the wrong name on the cake because it hadn't been picked by those who ordered it. The book is about examining your life, maturing, and growing closer evenwhile developing your individuality and independence.

Ich mochte den Schreibstil der Autorin. Auch wenn die Story nach meinem Geschmack etwas spektakulärer hätte sein können, war es ein wirklch schönes Buch.
