In a Thousand Different Ways
In a Thousand Different Ways | Cecelia Ahern
2 posts | 2 read
Finding your way is never a simple journey... Alice sees the worst in people. She also sees the best. She sees a thousand different emotions and knows exactly what everyone around her is feeling. Every. Single. Day. But it's the dark thoughts. The sadness. The rage. These are the things she can't get out of her head. The things that overwhelm her. Where will the journey to find herself begin? 'Utterly wonderful . . . Cecelia Ahern is a master storyteller at the absolute peak of her powers. Her heroine, Alice Kelly, is completely unique - beguiling, complicated, extraordinary - and she'll change the way you see the world' Clare Pooley, bestselling author of The Authenticity Project 'A novel that's so wise and profound, there's gold on every page' Donal Ryan, Booker-longlisted author of The Queen of Dirt Island 'I can't remember the last time I felt so invested in a character's future; I was willing Alice on, with every page. This is such a poignant, quirky and satisfying story about taking charge of one's life - and (like Alice's pot plants) thriving, despite the odds' Susan Fletcher, Whitbread-winning author of Eve Green 'So original and compelling and heartbreaking, but also heartwarming . . . Alice is right up my street . . . that gorgeous blend of strength and vulnerability' Ciara Geraghty 'Highly original, fresh and exciting' Hazel Gaynor 'I loved this novel . . . a rich tapestry, full of characters seeking love and acceptance on their life's journey' Patricia Scanlan, bestselling author of A Family Reunion 'Such a beautiful, tender and moving story' Sinead Moriarty, bestselling author of Yours, Mine, Ours 'Beautiful, moving and unexpected, In a Thousand Different ways is an unforgettable story. This is Cecelia Ahern at her very best' Louise O'Neill, bestselling author of Idol

We meet Alice at age 8 who sees people in colours, in auras. Her mother is unpredictable and is generally found either with dark tentacles hovering around her eager to suck people into the toxicity or surrounded by the sadness of blue.

As Alice ages, we watch her try to navigate the world trying to avoid the moods and colours of others and create a life for herself.

I love this idea but this book sparked no colour for me.

Disappointing.

BookWrym That‘s a shame it sounds really intriguing 6mo

Michellesibs @BookWrym I know, the premise is so good, the execution, not so much. Sigh. 6mo
