The Brightest Star in the Sky
The Brightest Star in the Sky: A Novel | Marian Keyes
A wry and life-affirming tale-and the Irish literary star's latest New York Times bestseller. Marian Keyes's inimitable blend of rollicking humor, effervescent prose, and captivating stories that deal with real-life issues have won readers around the globe. Reminiscent of the blockbuster movie Love, Actually, her new novel The Brightest Star in the Sky, features seven neighbors whose lives become entangled when a sassy and prescient spirit descends on 66 Star Street to radically transform at least one person's life in the Dublin town house. With the comic appeal of Nick Hornby's novels and delicious drama akin to Jane Green, The Brightest Star in the Sky will keep readers guessing, laughing, gasping, and in tears until the very last page.

A very cute intertwining story, love when little stories intertwine.

This was picked for our book club by another of the ladies and I have to admit it is not something I would have ever chosen to read had she not. I appreciated the realistic way Keyes writes about the darker subjects such as depression, anxiety and rape but there was not enough depth in amongst the cheesy 'chick-lit' comedy for me. I also felt like I didn't really connect with any of the characters, maybe because there were so many of them!

Myself and my best friend joined our very first book club this week. It was organised by the manager of a local non-profit restaurant called The Fork in the Road. We were unsure of what to expect but had a lovely evening, met some interesting people, had an amazing dinner and got given our first read. Not something I would ever have picked from the shelf but I'm looking forward to reading something outside of my comfort zone.

I used to devour Marion Keyes' books the second they were released but it's been years since I read one now. I think this is the last one I read and definitely the most #celestial book on my shelves.

#marchintoreading day 17: #irishauthors. From my TBR pile, a book by Marian Keyes, my favorite Irish author. Her books have the humor and readability of chick lit, while dealing with some pretty serious themes. I love her writing.

awishman I really like her books too! My favorite is Rachel's Holiday. 8y
