This is Home is about simple living - how to focus on our values to create authentic homes full of meaning and joy. I felt so seen while reading this novel and experienced a range of emotions, from sadness to cackling out loud!In this treatment, concerns that may otherwise seem trite are given the amount of consideration they would in an average teenager’s life. ideal si voleu explicar de manera senzilla com afecta la depressió al dia a dia d'algú, sobretot a gent jove. I also agree that there were not enough photos of each home, one reviewer mentioned that features would be described but, there would no photograph to accompany them and I was let down by that as well. She is also every Caribbean child who comes from a culture that is often unforgiving and lacking in understanding. As readers learn a great deal about each character and their identity, the narrator is left somewhat ambiguous until her full self is actualized at the end.

This Is Home, The Art of Simple Living by Natalie Walton

Home Home is the story of a depressed Trinidadian teenager, Kayla, who is sent to live with her Aunt in Canada.It's also packed with photos of close-up details of different homes from around the world, but mainly from the richest and most privileged countries in the world, the only exception being Morocco, because no hipster coffee table book can be complete without Morocco; but don't worry, the author made sure to visit only rich and privileged people's homes in Morocco, no local people's homes here, just rich and privileged expats explaining how they're oh so over living in the medina. Sometimes we all have to step out of the place we always considered home to realize that our true home can be in another space or in this case another country. There's an undoubted element of frustration there that I need to acknowledge because, I suspect, were it given some more space, this could be something kind of great. It’s overall uplifting and really sweet, especially seeing her aunts care for her and get excited about her life.

I will say that I loved the fact that the main character got to live the life that she desired in the end and that she’s on the road to becoming a better person for her well-being. The use of characters is decidedly purposeful as each character — no matter how small- serves a purpose in the protagonist’s realization of self and coming to terms with the world. Fans of Monday's Not Coming and Girl in Pieces will love this award-winning novel about a girl on the verge of losing herself and the unlikely journey to recovery after she is removed from anything and everyone she knows to be home. Beautiful photographs, but I would have liked to have seen more connection between the text and the photos.Items purchased from Thursday 28th September 2023 to Tuesday 23rd January 2024 as Christmas gifts can be exchanged for either goods or a Gift Card to the same value.

My real life is in a place where nobody wants me around, nobody understands me, and nobody really cares if I live or die? I did find it interesting that the main character’s name isn’t actually mentioned until the last page! Una cosa és que es mostrin les dificultats d'una mare soltera i adolescent criant a una nena que no volia tenir, això explica el seu comportament, però no el justifica.

Throughout the story the cast of characters are introduced slowly, each being shown as they impact the main character’s realization of self and growth. You'll know what The Feeling is; it's that moment when you read something, maybe a word or a sentence or a metaphor, whatever, but you know that it's good. When we focus on the values we want in our home, making decisions about how it will look is far easier. The style was at once intimate and authentic, I felt like I was having a peek not only into the homes but into the lives of the the people who live in those homes.
