Goodnight, Beautiful


Goodnight beautiful.. been so long since i last did any book review.. this book by dorothy koomson is kinda sad and also make me did some wishful thinking..
It revolves around two very best friend Mal & Nova, and the sacrifices that you're willing to go for your friend. The story is complex and inter realted between the character that u find yourself sstuck with the book.. flipping pages...
Nova agreed to be the surrogate mother for her bestfriend Mal only to find she was abandon. Mal had to choose between his wife & his love for his best friend.. Nova had to choose whether to bring up the baby or had an abortion..
After 8 years, tragedy strikes when Leo is in coma and Nova had to bring Mal back into her life. To allow her son some time with his real father.
hhmmm.. i don't actually know how to write the review for this book.. the story is kinda complicated and the dimension of the relationships in the story is kinda complex.. lets see :-
1) nova loves mal but when she wants to tell him he said he can never fall in love with his best friend..
2) years later mal wanna confess his undying love to nova only to find that she's marrying keith.. so mal marry stephanie who is the total opposite of nova just to make sure that he is so over nova...
3) keith wanna marry nova only to find that she is being surrogate mother to mal because of stephanie idea..
4) stephanie who wants a child but lie that she can't cause of an abortion that yank her uterus out comes up with a brilliant idea of her hubby best friend (nova) to become their surrogate mother. Freak out last minute because her husband (mal) send an sms to nova "goodnight beautiful". So she decided to break all ties between her husband and nova and the baby (leo)
5) nova proceed with the pregnancy and married keith.. after making him understand that she can't let go of the baby
6) leo had an aneurysm.. not sure whether the spelling is correct and too lazy to check the dict ehehe... so he is in coma..
7) nova had to confess to her family that leo is mal's son.. so she just had to inform mal that his son is dying
ahakssss.. this is like a book summary tht i'm supposed to do in school hehee.. but that's the gist of the stories.. do read if u like hallmark movies.. i can actually imagine that this could be a hallmark drama ehehe.. totally poignant... kinda like that word..
This is my book of the month for January ehehe :) ... Gute Nacht !!!!
