But Gus is not the only stellar friends that Kate brings to the party – she introduces us to a whole array of fabulous people, all of whom make not only her life but ours all the brighter for knowing them. While heartbreaking at some points, the book is ultimately uplifting and heartwarming and hopefully will urge you to see things from a different perspective. Writing Style- Strong and Methodical, which most won’t understand but it is, EVERY word served a purpose as I previously stated.

The way they spoke to each other, the love and tone that their expressions and conversations held was simply beautiful. Leeds Hospitals Charity is a registered charity in England and Wales ( 1170369) and a company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales, company number 10492128.

Kate aka as Bright Side lives up to her nick name, she always looks on the bright side of life (cue Monty Python music). Raucous, fun and devil-may-care they may be at times but it’s not only heartening but touching to see the camaraderie and love the Old-But-Not-Dead Club members have for each other.

My heart alternated between overflowing with happiness and being completely annihilated and you know what? I’ve been listening to some songs on this playlist, because I just couldn’t let these characters go.First attractions are something that are new to Bright Side she's taken with Keller instantly and their relationship blossoms gradually. The art is blocky and simple, with great use of repetition and subtle but powerful facial expressions . Not one character is superfluous to the story, they all have their part in bringing this story together.

Bright Side made me grateful for the life I have been given, it broke my heart imagining the struggles of other people around me, and it made me want to be a better person.You know the world would be a bright better place if we had more Kate's and Katie's in the world, LOL sorry that's my name isn't it? I hope to hear more from Gus and the rest of the guys from Rook and I would love to find out what becomes of Keller and the others.

I’m going to take a hell of a lot more than that with me, but that’s the one thing that’s going to stay with me forever. It’s pretty obvious what Kate’s hiding because there are big clues in the first few chapters but after that, there is no mention of it again until it’s revealed. She’s positive, always looks at the bright side of things no matter how bad they get, and she is funny. On the Bright Side is written by Hendrik Groen and translated by Hester Velmans and is published by Michael Joseph, an imprint of Penguin Books. Thanks for making the playlist, I hope it helps with the book hangover, I’ve never experience one so intense.I read and read and read and was so baffled by my boredom and unlove for this that I stopped and read the reviews more closely.
