While reading Shauna Niequist's first book, Cold Tangerines, I enjoyed myself but felt something was missing. The world seemed a bit TOO rosy. It's nice to say that a certain way of looking at life is healthy and to be optimistic, but I found myself asking, "What about when this tragedy happened in my life? This doesn't all fit together the way you're suggesting it does." Bittersweet picks up where Cold Tangerines left off, and for the first time, I felt my sorrow COULD fit into this optimistic life. Bittersweet is subtle, but perfect in it's portrayal of life. It's still optimistic, but in a way that allows room for us to both cry AND laugh. I'm not sure I'm making any sense, so I'll end by saying this has become a deeply personal book for me, and I recommend it to everyone. Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing. A sweet, heartfelt book. As a woman way past the stage of life Ms. Niequist was in when writing her book, most of it felt nostalgic for me, but I can see this being relevant and "a-ha" inspiring for women of the same stage or earlier. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
A personal memoir explores the intertwined natures of happiness and sadness, discussing how bitter experiences balance out the sweetness in life and how change can be an opportunity for growth and a function of God's graciousness. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

I loved this book. Shauna Niequist doesn't use platitudes, or preach, but she finds God - sometimes - in her loss and tears, and she shares what she learns for the reader to take or put aside. There's no 'happy ending' - this is real life, yet there's growth and maturity, and a greater depth of relationship with those the author loves.
Highly recommended.
