I didn't personally relate to the characters but I thought their story was beautiful and well written. I listened to the audiobook and with about 20 minutes left in the story I still hadn't yet cried. But, that last 5-10 minutes hit me and had me crying while on my lunch break at work. A coworker got me started reading this author. I guess I've read enough of his books now to "know" there's usually a twist at the end--and I guessed this one's (though I did waver between two different characters as being the twist. I was thrown off a bit by Maggie's mom's statement.). In one sense, I wish Bryce and Maggie had had a happier ending--though if they had, I doubt Maggie's life would have been what it was at the time of this book. It was nice to see a character who's an accomplished single woman. The story is well done but a bit soppy. The main character gave birth and adapted out her son due to her young age and other circumstance. Then, at the end of her life (a relative short one) that her son came back to her life (without her knowing until the end) and she relayed the story while she was on a remote island at North Carolina to her son. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
"1996 was the year that changed everything for Maggie Dawes. Sent away at sixteen to live with an aunt she barely knew in Ocracoke, a remote village on North Carolina's Outer Banks, she could think only of the friends and family she left behind . . . until she meets Bryce Trickett, one of the few teenagers on the island. Handsome, genuine, and newly admitted to West Point, Bryce gradually shows her how much there is to love about the wind-swept beach town-and introduces her to photography, a passion that will define the rest of her life. By 2019, Maggie is a renowned travel photographer. She splits her time between running a successful gallery in New York and photographing remote locations around the world. But this year she is unexpectedly grounded over Christmas, struggling to come to terms with a sobering medical diagnosis. Increasingly dependent on a young assistant, she finds herself becoming close to him. As they count down the last days of the season together, she begins to tell him the story of another Christmas, decades earlier-and the love that set her on a course she never could have imagined"-- Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

I really liked the whole "remembering the past" aspect of the book. That being said, I couldn't wait to get back into the past as opposed to the present view.
Also, I called that ending but it still left me super happy even if it was bittersweet.
