About book A Question Of Love (2015)

I can't remember family details of this book for some reason, but I know they are in there.Girl works for a production company and gets roped into hosting a new game show they are doing. Game show becomes successful and an old boyfriend comes on as a contestant. They get back together. Oh yeaaah, Girl's husband left her and just disappeared. Made some news because it was so strange, but he has never come back. Girl and Boy date and Boy has daughter now from previous marriage. Ex-wife is fucking insane and always threatens to cut off ties between Boy and daughter which FINALLY! drives girl insane and they break up after she finds out that ex-wife went to Venice with Boy and daughter. She ends up with her boss whom she likes, but for most of the book thinks that he left his ex-wife and son for some sleazy actress. He didn't. So they get together.I hate when people are thrown together at the last moment just for the hell of it. Blah.But for some reason that I can't remember I kind of liked this book. I liked the lead with the expectation of her staying with the Boy for so long. But I can kind of see why she did and at least she gave him the keys to the street eventually! And it was a good reason why she stayed and he kept making excuses. But the ex-wife was sooo bloody annoying.Grade: C

Ini baru novel kedua Isabel Wolff yang saya baca, Behaving Badly dan yang ini (karena yang diterjemahkan kayaknya memang baru dua... ;p). Dan sepertinya Wolff cukup berbeda memilih profesi si tokoh utama. Di Behaving Badly, psikiater hewan peliharaan, dan di novel ini, presenter kuis televisi. Plot dan konflik-konfliknya tipikal, tapi nggak terlalu membosankan untuk disimak sampai ending. Gemes aja sama Laura, gampang dicipoa-in sama Luke (eh, kayaknya nama ini sering banget dipake di berbagai chicklit yak?). Pesan utamanya: romantisme masa lalu sering kali membelenggu dan cinta sejati sebenarnya (kadang) dekat dengan kita.

Do You like book A Question Of Love (2015)?

I've had this book for quite some time and even though I read good critics about Isabel Wolff's, it was always being put behind by others.It was a mistake, as now, looking for a light read, I finally decided to pick it up and had a very nice surprise. One of the best of this year.It's not an usual chick lit book, where we have a (usually) no so bright girl, with a dumb job or no job at all, that can't do anything by herself. And a boy that is going to "save her" and no matter what happens throughout the book, we always know they'll end up together.Laura is a very intelligent and strong woman, who has gone through some very difficult times due to what happened to her husband. She enconters an old flame and everything seems to point to them living happilly ever after. Or don't they?With real problems, caracters that also seem real and make us interested in what happens next (oh, but can't we just kill Magda??? arghhhhh!), and also funny moments, I will definitely read more of her books.
