Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • OPRAH’S BOOK CLUB PICK • MORE THAN ONE MILLION COPIES SOLD! From the author of Dear Edward comes a “powerfully affecting” (People) family story that asks: Can love make a broken person whole? “Another tender tearjerker . . . Napolitano chronicles life’s highs and lows with aching precision.”—The Washington Post ONE OF THE CHICAGO PUBLIC LIBRARY’S TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times Book Review, NPR, The Washington Post, Time, Vogue, Glamour, Harper’s Bazaar, New York Post, She Reads, Bookreporter William Waters grew up in a house silenced by tragedy, where his parents could hardly bear to look at him, much less love him—so when he meets the spirited and ambitious Julia Padavano in his freshman year of college, it’s as if the world has lit up around him. With Julia comes her family, as she and her three sisters are inseparable: Sylvie, the family’s dreamer, is happiest with her nose in a book; Cecelia is a free-spirited artist; and Emeline patiently takes care of them all. With the Padavanos, William experiences a newfound contentment; every moment in their house is filled with loving chaos. But then darkness from William’s past surfaces, jeopardizing not only Julia’s carefully orchestrated plans for their future, but the sisters’ unshakeable devotion to one another. The result is a catastrophic family rift that changes their lives for generations. Will the loyalty that once rooted them be strong enough to draw them back together when it matters most? An exquisite homage to Louisa May Alcott’s timeless classic, Little Women, Hello Beautiful is a profoundly moving portrait of what is possible when we choose to love someone not in spite of who they are, but because of it.

  • Hello, beautiful!
Format: Hardcover
HELLO BEAUTIFUL Ann Napolitano When I turned my eBook to page one, I said aloud “HELLO, BEAUTIFUL!” I knew from page one that I was in for a good time what I did not know was how much I’d enjoy this book and the process of reading it and I certainly didn’t know I had found a new favorite author. In Hello Beautiful we start with William. William was born to a family suffering a great loss. And even in the first few pages with William, we come to know him in all that he isn’t instead of what he is. It’s an interesting way to construct a character. In the next chapter, we meet Julia and all that she is and all that she has. She is a lot, has a lot. Specifically, things that William does not. She has a close, loving family, and she has a plan and the will to carry it out. William and Julia meet in college and begin a wonderful life together. We follow over the years as eventually, William's past comes to light and the very thing that drew them together threatens to tear them apart. I read this one towards the end of 2022 and had to hold onto this review for over six months. It was torture. It was one of the best books I read last year, and I can’t wait for you to read it. It would make a great book club selection as there would be a lot to discuss. I imagine readers on opposing sides of imaginary lines, arguing their point. And they would both be right. That is the beauty of this book. Let’s talk about what I especially liked about it. The first thing I loved and noticed was the sentence structure. There is a pattern to the structure that creates a rhythm that increases reading enjoyment. Essentially it is very easy to read. The second thing I loved is what I noted previously. I loved how William was constructed as a character. His pages felt vacuous. As if I were leaving a part of myself there with him on every page. There is a scene early on when William is describing a moment with a professor. That passage is so telling of William and his lens for seeing his world and interacting with it. The third thing I loved was the number of emotions that were stirred within me. I don’t remember the last time I was angry with a fictional character. It’s been six months and I still disagree with some of the characters' choices. Although this was a five-star read for me I do want to note how critical the writing is. These characters are beautifully imperfect, and the narrative, no matter the character, was severe in correction. This can lead to a lack of empathy toward the characters and their situation. It didn’t affect me much, but I think readers should be aware of that going in. HELLO BEAUTIFUL comes out on March 14, 2023, and I highly recommend it. Now an Oprah Book Club pick for March 2023 HELLO BEAUTIFUL…⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thanks to Random House Publishing Group - Random House, The Dial Press for the advanced copy! ... show more

  • Beautiful Atypical Love Story
Format: Kindle
Well written, great characters, good read. I wish they had spoken more at the end, but I read it in a day it was that good.

  • A captivating and beautiful story.
Format: Kindle
From pretty much the first page, the reader is welcomed into the lives of this family of characters as their story unfolds over time and distance. Although the characters and their relationships with each other are the central theme of the book, their collective stories keep the reader engaged. Its an emotional ride I enjoyed. I love when a book stays with you after the last page is read. Hello Beautiful is one of those books. ... show more

  • I don’t understand the hype
Format: Hardcover
Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano Hello Beautiful centers around the Padavano sisters, and a man named William. Like the classic Little Women, we are intertwined into the sisters’ close-knit family, and we bear witness to their life’s highlights, but more so their downfalls. Oddly, as close as the sisters are displayed to the reader, we see very little in the way of communication between the four of them. There are marriages, births, loves and losses stretched across thirty-some-odd years. There is a beautifully storied first half, engulfing the reader. The middle of our story is lackluster though and a bit drawn out and I found myself uninterested. The last quarter of the book felt rushed to me like the author knew she had to wrap up the story. One character, in particular, I didn’t understand at all. She’s in her early 20s but does not have the inquisitive nature of an early twenty-something. This leads to my disappointment with this character. We have a very unfinished reunion at the very end, and unless there is going to be a sequel, leaves a lot of questions. I know this book is beloved by so many, and I did enjoy it, don’t get me wrong. I think it was hyped so much that I expected to give it a perfect five-star rating. I’m going to give Hello Beautiful three out of five stars. It was good, but had the potential to be great. ... show more
