Loveless is wonderful. It feels the feels… and it’s one of her more recent books. Imagine having a high school teacher who looks like Alan Rickman! Apparently that has a quite different connotation to someone young enough to be my daughter, as opposed to someone close to my age. See the 1990s film adaptation of Sense and Sensibility, and you'll understand. Probably. "Everything in this room is pink and black and if it were a person it'd be a Kardashian on a middle income (p. 94)." (  ) swigget | Feb 25, 2024 | For people with mental illness, this is a novel to be careful with when reading. Tori is very dark for most of it, which can be difficult to handle on rough days. However, I can also appreciate how having her darkness can be a good representation for those who need it. I enjoyed the story, but I did keep hoping that Tori would lighten up. This is not my favorite story in the Heartstopper/Solitare universe, but I do like the insight it gives into Tori. (  ) BarnesBookshelf | Dec 6, 2023 | I loved getting to know a few of the other characters in the Nick and Charlie world. I’m definitely more sympathetic to Tori now (not that I wasn’t before, but I loved getting to know her better). ( ) Danielle.Desrochers | Oct 10, 2023 | An English older secondary school student tries to understand her world. Well written from inside her head, all the words she doesn't say, and her feelings hidden inside. Almost like a zombie she finds herself in surprising situations, making and breaking friends. Alongside running through the character assessment of "Tori" lies the story's plot about a group called Solitaire causing havoc in her school. Very heartfelt and realistic. Very modern, with references to Twilight and Muse. "Films aren't real, but I love them. But books they're different. When you watch a film, you're sort of an outsider looking in. With a book - you're right there. You are inside. You are the main character." (  ) AChild | Aug 31, 2023 | keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
Erstlingswerk der jungen Autorin: Der Leser begleitet Ich-Erzählerin Tori, die sich nicht sonderlich viel aus ihren Mitschülern macht, durch ihren Highschoolalltag und erlebt mit, wie sie langsam ihren Widerstand gegen wahre Freundschaft aufgibt. Thematisiert werden weiterhin Problemthemen wie das Verhältnis zu ihrem psychisch kranken Bruder, Homosexualität und Gruppendynamik an Schulen. Der Klappentext wirbt mit einem Vergleich zum Klassiker "Der Fänger im Roggen". Und tatsächlich gibt es einige intertextuelle Bezüge, die auf das Werk J.D. Salingers verweisen - so heisst eine der Figuren Holden, die Protagonistin mit der fatalistischen Weltanschauung hat eine ausgesprochen enge Bindung zu ihrem Bruder, und an einer Stelle wird "Der Fänger im Roggen" auch namentlich erwähnt. Ob "Solitaire" an den Status des Klassikers herankommt, ist fraglich. In jedem Fall handelt es sich um eine interessante Lektüre für Jugendliche in der Selbstfindungsphase mit fulminantem Finale, auch das Cover weckt Interesse. Fazit also: gerne empfohlen.
