“Nina understood, maybe for the first time, that letting people love you and care for you is part of how you love and care for them.”
Osamdesete, ljeto i Malibu – sve što vam treba za odličnu zabavu na kraju ljeta. Ubacite u tu priču još bogate i slavne, dramu, laži i prevare i zabava je zagarantirana.
Ovako prema mom opisu zvuči lagano i zabavno, ali u ovih 350 stranica krije se puno više. Teška djetinjstva, tužne sudbine, obiteljska drama – moram priznati da je ovaj put T.J.R. zadovoljila sve moje kriterije za dobru knjigu.
Nakon Evelyn koja mi je bila samo ok i Daisy s kojom se nisam sprijateljila, odlučila sam ovoj autorici dati treću šansu i odabrala Malibu gori. I moram priznati da mi je drago da me Instagram na to natjerao. Izgleda da smo T. J. Reid i ja konačno pronašle zajednički jezik. Malibu gori nije postala moja najdraža knjiga ikada, ali sam se baš dobro zabavila, bila mi je jako zanimljiva i likovi i priča odmah su mi se svidjeli. Vrlo teško sam se odvajala od nje. A ono što je najvažnije bilo mi je žao kada sam ju dovršila jer sam željela još! Mislim da je najbolje da se odmah bacim na čitanje Carrie Soto 😊
T. J. Reid i ja daleko smo još od najboljih prijateljica, ali mislim da smo na jako dobrom putu 😊

Malibu Rising – T. J. Reid
The eighties, summer and Malibu – everything you need for a great end of summer party. Add to that story the rich and famous, drama, lies, deception and fun is guaranteed.
This way, according to my description, it sounds like a light and fun read, but there is much more hidden in these 350 pages. Difficult childhoods, sad fates, family drama – I have to admit that this time T.J.R. met all my criteria for a good book.
After Evelyn, that was just ok, and Daisy, that I didn’t make friends with, I decided to give this author a third chance and chose Malibu Rising. And I have to admit that I’m glad Instagram made me do it. Looks like T. J. Reid and I are finally speaking the same language. Malibu Rising didn’t become my favorite book ever, but I had a lot of fun, it was very interesting and I immediately liked the characters and the story. I had a very hard time putting it down. And most importantly, I was really sad when I finished it because I wanted more! I think it’s best to start reading Carrie Soto right now 😊
T.J. Reid and I are far from best friends, but I think we’re on a very good path 😊
