THE PASSION OF READING IN 2026
THE PASSION FOR READING IN 2026-
By Bernard Bujold -
I love it when I discover an exceptional author. In my life, I enjoyed many exceptional authors like Tom Wolfe, Dan Brown, Kathy Reichs, and others like them. Now, I discovered another one with the same level of talent: Belle Burden. I discovered her by reading the review of her book (memoirs), "Strangers," in The New York Times.
The book caught my attention because it is a story about divorce, and I am a divorced person myself. But the book is also a book about life, friendship, and how to overcome life in uncharted waters, and how to survive the pain and the emptiness after divorce or the death of a close friend. It also shows how we often do not really know the real personality of our neighbour or spouse. The action of the book is set at Martha’s Vineyard and in New York.
I recommend the book; it's well-written and very inspiring!
The author is a discovery for many, and she intends to write other future books, probably in the form of novels. In a way, Burden makes me think of Louise Penny, who became a best-selling writer late in her life. Belle Burden wanted to be a writer in college, but her teacher made fun of her writing, saying she had no talent as a writer. Now in her 50s, she has become a best-selling author.
Conclusion: "Never give up on your dream..." To be continued…
