Product Description

The stunning new bestseller from the superstar of women's fiction

At 66 Star Street in Dublin someone is watching over the lives of the people living in its flats. But no one is aware of it—yet... One of them is ready to take the plunge and fall in love; another is torn between two very different lovers. For some, secrets they want to stay buried will come to light and for others, the unveiling of those secrets will have tragic consequences. Fate is on its way to Star Street, bringing with it love and tragedy, friendship and heartbreak, and the power to change their lives in the most unexpected of ways...

4.0étoiles sur 5 Loved it!, Nov. 9 2009
Par Vanessa M. Dow "Vanessa D" (Ontario, Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Description: Four flats, four sets of tenants, and one mystery. At least one of the residents of 66 Star Street is in for a major life change. But who will it be? These neighbors have no idea that a smart-mouthed, (almost) all-knowing spirit is stalking their lives, looking to make some changes.

My thoughts: Matt and Maeve are madly in love, yet seem to be living a strangely empty life. Lydia and her two Polish roommates hate each other... or do they? Katie definitely loves Conall, but they just can't seem to make it work. And Jemima... well, don't get me started on Jemima.

The people of 66 Star Street are a bit of a crazy bunch, but you can't help but love them. Marian Keyes has an incredible gift for creating characters that stick with you, the kind of characters you are going to miss when you finish the book. With keen insight and amazing talent for making every situation amusing, Keyes takes the reader on a journey through these lives, and the lives they touch.

There's also a bit of a mystery. Exactly who is the strange spirit narrating the story, which life is it going to change, and in what way? I don't know if maybe I'm just dense, but it did take me quite a while to figure out what was going on. Even then, there were a few pieces that eluded me until almost the very end. Which is perfect, exactly how I like it.

It did take me a few chapters to get into this book. There is a large cast of main characters, and their storylines don't start to intersect other than geographically until fairly far on in the book. For me, this made it a bit tough to get into the story. Once I did get into it, I loved it. So if you start out and it's feeling a bit slow, I encourage you to keep on reading.

Content warnings: This is an adult novel. There is a fair bit of foul language, and sexual content (moderately graphic). I don't want to to give any spoilers, but there are also a few distressing situations, though I thought they were well-managed so as not to be overly disturbing.

3.0étoiles sur 5 Good Read for first time Marian Keyes reader!, Nov. 22 2009
Par Shirley Rempel (Alberta, Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
First off, I need to say that I have never read any of Marian Keyes work. I tend to shy away from romantic fiction for the most part. The reason I chose to read The Brightest Star In The Sky is that it sounded like a really fun read.And I was not disappointed. Recently I have been reading more "serious" books and I needed a change of pace. And this book was just the change I needed.


The characters in the book are an eccentric bunch and it was very fun to learn about them all (there is a lot of them!). I found it a little hard to initially get "into" the book, as the first few chapters were introductions of the characters but once they all started to intermingle it was a great read. There are a number of different storylines that are weaved throughout the book. I will not give more details, so not to spoil the book. Suffice it to say, though a very fun, easy to read book that was definitely worth 400 pages!

4.0étoiles sur 5 Another hit from Marian Keyes!, Nov. 22 2009
Par BookChick (Simcoe, ON Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
"The Brightest Star in the Sky" is the story of the seven very different residents of 66 Star Street, as told from the point of view of a star on a mission. We, as readers, don't know what the star's mission is (in fact, we don't find out what it is until the last quarter of the book) but we do know that he has 60 days to complete his task and that he's all on his own until then. The only problem is that the star isn't sure who the subject of his mission is, so we get to meet all of the very different residents of 66 Star Street. There's Katie, inhabiting the fourth floor, who works in PR and is pushing 40. She isn't sure about much of anything right now, especially how to pick the right man. Below her, on the third floor, lives Andrei and Jan, Polish brothers earning money to support their family back home and Lydia, their spitfire Irish roomate with a barbed-wire personality. Jemima and her dog, Grudge, live on the floor below. Jemima is 88 and works for a psychic hotline, but only so that she can make sure that the young women who call her don't end up wasting too much of their money on the calls. Finally, Matt and Maeve live on the main floor. They appear to be as close as one couple can be, doing everything together, but beneath their sunny exterior something seems to be missing.

The star has his work cut out for him as he begins to infiltrate the resident's memories and shadow them so that he can figure out who it is he is supposed to help. The residents certainly keep him hopping, and as the clock ticks down we begin to wonder- will the star be able to complete his mission in time? Will the residents of 66 Star Street be able to find their happy endings?

I loved this book! The characters were quirky and lovable, even crotchety old Jemima and strange Lydia. This isn't your average chick-lit, though, as there's very little that's "fluffy" about the topics that Marian Keyes writes about. Keyes writes about some very serious issues, one that are bound to have affected the readers in some way, no matter how remotely (in an effort to prevent plot spoilers, I won't say what they are). She reveals her plot tantalizingly slowly, leaving the reader racing to reach the end to discover the conclusion. Keyes even managed to surprise me a little by injecting an unexpected plot twist into the epilogue.

Both new and old Marian Keyes fans will love her latest, "The Brightest Star in the Sky".
