Stormy Weather by Dermot Davis
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Heartwarming and finished way too soon. I never thought 132 pages would fly by so fast. Despite the somewhat deep plot, the fast paced book kept me wondering what was going to happening next, what truly is real and imaginary and how reality is largely a function of each individual's perception.
The author does a good job of changing points of view between characters without causing any jolts. Imaginative and entertaining! This book surprisingly touched my heart and wrung me of my emotions. I'm normally a sucker for book covers and this cover was pretty boring, BUT don't let that fool you as the story is nothing like the grey, gloomy cover.
'Pause now to ask yourself the following question: "Am I dreaming or awake right now?" Be serious, really try to answer the question to the best of your ability and be ready to justify your answer." My favourite quote from the book and like Robert Munro, the main character, we all want to justify everything that happens. Life, death, love, hate, if we cannot justify it, it can't be true. Or can it? Lovely, lovely read.
