The Divine Heart, review

Hi guys!

Today I bring you a review in english since this book only exists in this language. 
Thanks Danielle R. Mani for sending me this book! 



Seventeen-year-old Elle Collins spent most her life waiting for someone else to die…
When a heart donor is found, Elle awakes from surgery gifted with more than just a new heart—clairaudient messages and spiritual apparitions haunt her until she is convinced that she must be insane. Either that, or her donor is sending a message.
Desperate for answers the medical community can’t provide, Elle’s divination leads her to the family of her donor—a young girl named, Cas. With the help of her best friend, Rob—the guy who’s a testament that her new heart is capable of love, Elle must make sense of the clues Cas is sending. As pieces of Cas’s life and death emerge, Elle will discover that she and Cas share more than just a heart. 


This was a fast and interesting read.
The main plot is actually very interesting. When I read the sypnopsis I wasn't completely in love with it, I wasn't convinced. However, after reading the book, I have to say that the story is pretty cool. 
While I was reading it, I felt like I was watching  Ghost Whisperer and that is really good because I really liked that TvShow! It was awesome to feel those feelings again.
The suspense in this book was very well developed. The reader feel the need to discover what is actualy happening.
 I really liked the writing and how it brought a darker tone to the story. Through her writing, the author was capable of recreating the suffering and exasperation. When reading, the reader is capable of feeling all the pain that the main character and her mother feel, and that is pretty awesome. That are some characters that I thought were really strange but, in the end, I understood why they where like that.
I rate this book with a 3,4 out of 5. I think the ideia is nice, but I have read and seen too many books and movies with a similar main action.

  1. Tenho de ser honesta, depois de ler esta review, tenho a certeza que não é um livro para mim. Tal como tu, já li bastantes livros e há mesmo filmes com a mesma ideia principal. Além disso, ao contrário de ti não gostei nada de Ghost Whisperer. Ainda assim, obrigada por partilhares uma vez mais tão detalhada review, pois dás-nos sempre uma boa ideia se vamos ou não gostar do livro que estás a apresentar. :) Boa semana!

  2. O que partilharão elas para além do coração? O mistério fica no ar. Não sei se seria uma leitura que me entusiasmaria, mas é sempre bom ficarmos a conhecer novos livros.
