Next on my list, Jill Smolinski


Title: Next on my list
Author: Jill Smolinski
Publisher: Vergara
Gender or Age: chik lit
Starring: June Parker and a mysterious boy.
Argument: June
Parker was first to a weight loss program to lose 4 kilos others. As he prepared to go home he saw a girl who had lost nothing more nor less than 45 kilos call Marissa Jones. He offered to take her because the poor girl was wearing a shoe that was very sexy but also very uncomfortable.

by careless confesses that his sister had made a list of things to do before the age of twenty-five. To avoid that Troy is pissed with her for not giving the list to your family says I keep it to end.
Although never attempted or completed June to anything proposed will do its best to achieve fulfill the dreams of Marissa and complete list "twenty things I must do before the age of twenty-five".

Personal opinion:
I was hooked from the first page and almost ate it. June is a woman of 34 who has spent more time alone than with a boyfriend. He lives on the same floor for 12 years without carrying anything along with his brother. One night her life changes. Has an accident and a woman dies. After 6 months plunged into a depression begins to fulfill the wishes of the girl. This would cause major changes in their lives and begin to see things differently.
is a novel which shows us pretty hard realities (Parents who can not have children, girls as young as 14 who are expecting a baby, leaders who rely more on appearance than talent, ...) but it is still funny and very entertaining.
The secondary characters are all very charismatic especially Susan, best friend of June, and Martucci, coworker. They help in what they can in June to finish the list.
One of the strengths of the novel is that holds us in suspense throughout the novel we do not know if June will be able to finish the list. Also noteworthy is the end that is completely unexpected but wonderful.

Global Note: 8

Personal opinion:
In the first chapters I liked very much but to see no hint of a relationship and the lack of dialogue was not able to get hooked but stubbornness kept reading and I was hooked completely when it reaches half of the book. The love story (though eventually he was expected) was very tender, but not the end all we want is also very nice. Ivan
is what we all call an invisible friend and is such a sweet, wonderful and carefree you want to eat you with kisses. Cecelia Ahern gives us a new vision filled with magic invisible friends that many children are in infancy.
Elizabeth is a woman who happened canutas. Small tube to raise his sister because his mother was "going" for weeks, his father was a man who never knew apathetic give love to their daughters. At 18 he is going to school and leaves his father and his sister alone event that cost him a lot but at the end and deserved to live out his life. But time and again his family needs and because of him has missed many opportunities and even her boyfriend.
now is a woman who has entered his thirties who has a business, a nephew and a sister take care crazy to worry about. At first I thought was a very cranky woman and I did not like but throughout the novel I've grown fond.
In short, a book filled with magic, tenderness and love which is totally recommended.
