Il consiglio del 1 dicembre 2020
Perché lo consigliamo: Perché è molto realistica come storia e fa commuovere. E’ una lettura rilassante e, visto che la storia è ambientata proprio durante il periodo natalizio, ci sembra una lettura perfetta per questi giorni, ancora di più per il fatto che anche i protagonisti, come tutti noi in questi giorni, non si incontrano, ma comunicano via telefono (neanche Skype!)... con un twist fantascientifico che scoprirete leggendo il libro.

Sinossi: Georgie McCool knows her marriage is in trouble; it has been in trouble for a long time. She still loves her husband, Neal, and Neal still loves her, deeply — but that almost seems beside the point now.
Maybe that was always beside the point.
Two days before they’re supposed to visit Neal’s family in Omaha for Christmas, Georgie tells Neal that she can’t go. She’s a TV writer, and something’s come up on her show; she has to stay in Los Angeles. She knows that Neal will be upset with her — Neal is always a little upset with Georgie — but she doesn't expect him to pack up the kids and go home without her.
When her husband and the kids leave for the airport, Georgie wonders if she’s finally done it. If she’s ruined everything.
That night, Georgie discovers a way to communicate with Neal in the past. It’s not time travel, not exactly, but she feels like she’s been given an opportunity to fix her marriage before it starts...
Is that what she’s supposed to do?
Or would Georgie and Neal be better off if their marriage never happened?
