On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong

On Earth We're Briefly GorgeousOn Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous by Ocean Vuong
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

I was really excited about this book...but it felt very disorganized and a half done book. There was not written about certain things happening and then very detailed descriptions of what seemed to be nothing....He writes about his love and admiration for his mom and then she slaps him or punches him... There is a lot of domestic abuse but it was so all over the place it was hard to really get a feel and understanding for this book...:( This is more like scattered short stories/ prose then a novel/ memoir. I am moving on...

There were parts that felt a little tedious but I'm so happy to have experienced this story. Great message. Maybe the gift is just receiving a string.

Ahh... so good. These books make my soul happy. I liked the setting of the story so much...I want to see this beautiful farm with my own eyes. Aiden and Ellie were a fun couple. I am counting down....stalking at this point-when Maria and Jesse's book is coming out. I was absolutely hooked with their banter... not to mention Charlie and Sawyer... their book is not even in Goodreads yet... all good things come to those that wait. What a fantastic start to a series. So exciting.🍎🍎

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

SO good! Thank you to the publisher for a copy.
1) Cover-how gorgeous. I miss these beautiful covers. Just absolutley gorgeous.
2) I miss these romance novels! The ones where both the hero/ heroine make you shake you head... But nonetheless keep rooting for the couple.
3) Once I started reading this story I could not stop. SO fun and exciting. I loved the characters and the tension between two people who could not make it work...
4) What a perfect way to kick off summer!

Thank you to the pushlisher for a copy
