"This story will make you smile in the beginning and cry at the end."
Beautifully written book about love, friendfiship, career and the development of a young, well-educated woman who has just an ordinary, rutinous life. But suddenly something happens that leads to dramatic change in her life and how she deals with it. It is admirable to observe how those changes work for her and how she finds a path to a better life!
Special aesthetic pleasure of holding this book in your hands - the cover is very nice, and the quality of print is very convenient.

An excellent book for getting the first glimpse of the country named Finland.

"Love can have different forms..."
This book will definitely immerse you into the intense emotional atmosphere of two people who try to find their way through life. This book is about the unfairness of life and about great loss that can be life-changing, and about a person who finds courage to be happy again.
I did not expect much from this book, but to my surprise it consumed me and I could not stop reading until I finished it.
It is a perfect weekend read and certainly will distract you from the daily routines.
The author has a very light and vivid use of language, so it will be easy to read for those who want to start reading in English for pleasure.
"Learn how to make yourself happy"
Amazing work of a dedicated and extremely intelligent Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. If you are interested in making your life more fulfilling and pleasurable - this book will surely show you the path which you may find tempting...This talented author managed to write about complex things in a very easy and understandable manner. Some things may be known to most of us, but somehow we rarely realize them and fail to make good use of them. In my opinion, this book will be great for those who is going through a tough period of life or have lost hope in having a good life. The author gives a lot of tips on how to change the quality of your life, but it is surely up to us to use them...
"Make your own habits)"

I liked that the author uses easy words and shows some good knowledge of human nature. I believe this book can become a good start for those who strives to change something in one's life for the better and live a life of better quality.
"Impressive story"
The author managed to depict four different stories in very emotional ways. Each part will show you a different story, but all of them are giving hope or closure to their main characters. An outstanding piece of literature and definitely won't leave you indifferent.
This book can be suitable for those who have at least B1 level.
"This inspiring book can be helpful when a person goes through hard times. "
As for me - I was lucky to put my hands on this book exactly when I most needed it.
I admire how Viktor Frankl wrote about terrible things in simple words and yet managed to help me to find the balance in life when most needed.
Highly recommend this book to everyone, I am sure that everyone will find something useful.
"Old story with new details..."
Frankly speaking, I did not expect much from this book, but as I am fond of Greek mythology - I decided to give it a try. Surely this is the detailed description of the story and to my surprise the author did a great job describing the lifestyle of ancient heroes. She made the well-known characters more real with their problems and desires.
This book is not a piece of historical paper, so don't expect accurate facts from it - just enjoy a well-written story!
"No matter how good your life is - you still have regrets..."
The brilliant style of Matt Haig - to write about serious issues in a light and ironic way. This book has amazingly deep meaning and it shows that sometimes it is more about our inner-self and if you want to change something you need to start from within.
Matt Haig uses a very simple but precise language and it will be easy and pleasant to read.
"This book is a must read for everyone!"
For men it will show how women live and operate in this world. If you want to have a glimpse into the daily life of women and their usual problems, this book can become your guide.
For women - this book will explain many things that we take for granted and that sometimes our ignorance makes our lives harder. We need to learn how to make our life in this world better. And surely we need to help others to realize that too.
My solid recommendation is for this book!
"book about war in Ukraine..."
Sometimes it is interesting to read how other people experience the same events as you - and this book is the one for all Ukrainians. For me, it was a reminder of lots of events that changed our lives. Kurkov wrote about everything we went through and his own thoughts and reminiscences. It is great that this book is available in English so that people from all around the world can read about the war and maybe help them understand us better.
This book is written in easy language, so you can try to read even with B1 level.
"The book that will be relevant forever!"
Ray Bradbury is one of my favorite authors, he has an outstanding ability to write about things that are important at all times.
Fahrenheit 451 is a story about the possible future for all humanity. The author describes the world where people prefer to live in a virtual world, and stop enjoying simple mundane things in life. And this is a story about a man who tries to find meaning in life and how the system resists his development.
Very vivid and beautiful use of language by Ray Bradbury will keep you mesmerized while reading this book!
"You are welcome to peep inside the world of Evelyn Hugo!)"
The story about a mysterious famous actress and her thorny road towards fame and riches. This is the story about Evelyn Hugo, about her ups and downs, and her biggest love and biggest sorrows.
One more detail about this book that I adore - the pages between chapters with articles from newspapers from different periods of her life. It is another charming thing that creates the special atmosphere of the life of Evelyn Hugo...
"The story will remain with you for very long time.."
I am one of those people who didn't watch the movie, but I love this cover))
While reading this book I could not stop thinking that war is the most terrible thing that humankind invented.
This is the story about a lovely girl, whose life changed dramatically because of evil people who started the war. But despite all those horrible things she was lucky to have people who showed her that life can be interesting and that helping others is important.
Most people will relate to some parts of this book and everyone will definitely find something interesting!
"The book about how our mind works"
While reading this book you will understand many things that you could not explain before. A fascinating life-long study of Daniel Kahneman will help you understand how our thinking processes work, how we make decisions and many other things.
The author explains lots of phenomena of our daily life and how our brain deceives our perceptions and our judgments. So, prepare yourself for a very interesting, but life-changing information in this great book.
"The history of mankind in one book)"
If you want to get a general understanding of the history of humanity - this book is a perfect option. Harari has a very unique talent of telling boring things in an entertaining and exciting manner.
This book can help you to understand our history better and the way why and how our world was shaped as we know it now. This book can become an opening for a new perception of our life and surely you will get to know lots of interesting information.
