š¬ My opinion
š An intense and moving road trip : The Night the Stars Went Out talks about those moments when we hit rock bottom, when we feel lower than earth, but when deep and spontaneous bonds of friendship prevent us from sinking completely.
š A strong and sincere friendship : Fine and her friends aren't just a group, they're a family. Their bonds are woven with love, arguments, memories, and precious moments. We feel their connection on every page, in their gestures, their silences, and their glances.
š„ A raw and powerful story : This book doesn't try to sugarcoat the pain; it tells it accurately. It highlights those moments when everything seems to be falling apart, but a glimmer of light can still appear, even in the darkest night.
ā ļø Powerful and necessary themes : Mental health, inner suffering, the weight of memories... So many subjects treated with a sincerity that grabs you by the guts. The writing is fluid, immersive, and each emotion is felt with a rare intensity.
ā My rating: 5/5
A poignant novel about friendship, pain, and those moments when we simply want to breathe again. A book that tugs at your heartstrings as much as it reminds you of the beauty of the bonds that save us.
