Product Description

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.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Can't wait for another book!, Fév 5 2010
Par Heather Sullivan (Ottawa, Ontario Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
I love reading Marian Keyes to the point of re-reading her books more than once throughout a year. This new book is reminiscent of her short stories but then spirals closer and closer together until everyone is connected. I love that Marian Keyes tackles darkness with a little joy and laughter. I know some readers are looking for a repeat of earlier books but I think bringing darkness from the background to the foreground to examine is quite genius. It is something everyone must face one way or the other at some point in their life. I loved this book, but it is not chick-lit so maybe don't bring it to read on vacation.

At the beginning it's a bit confusing but once you get the hang of it, it's a really cute book. Very funny too.
