Forgive Me, Leonard 

 Today is Leonard Peacock's birthday. It is also the day he will kill his former best friend, and then himself, with his grandfather's P-38 pistol. Maybe one day he'll believe that being different is okay, important even. But not today. 

Cloud Atlas

 Souls cross ages like clouds cross skies ...Six interlocking lives - one amazing adventure. In a narrative that circles the globe and reaches from the 19th century to a post-apocalyptic future, Cloud Atlas erases the boundaries of time, genre and language to offer an enthralling vision of humanity's will to power, and where it will lead us. 

There will come a time

 Mark knows grief. Ever since the accident that killed his twin sister, Grace, the only time he feels at peace is when he visits the bridge on which she died. Comfort is fleeting, but it's almost within reach when he's standing on the wrong side of the suicide bars. Almost. Grace's best friend, Hanna, says she understands what he's going through. But she doesn't. She can't. It's not just the enormity of his loss. As her twin, Mark should have known Grace as well as he knows himself. Yet when he reads her journal, it's as if he didn't know her at all. As a way to remember Grace, Hanna convinces Mark to complete Grace's bucket list from her journal. Mark's sadness, anger, and his growing feelings for Hanna threaten to overwhelm him. But Mark can't back out. He made a promise to honor Grace--and it's his one chance to set things right.

Detta är tre böcker jag har velat läsa länge, och jag har faktiskt sett Cloud Atlas filmen men jag tycker att den var så bra att jag gärna läser boken ändå. Och There will come a time verkar också väldigt bra :)

Åh, jag är verkligen nyfiken på hur Cloud Atlas kan tänkas vara som bok!

Svar: Ja jag tänker också det för filmen var ju väldigt bra och annorlunda. Lite svår att hänga med i dock... Men den verkar som en bok som man kan läsa trots att man sett filmen och ändå vara riktigt bra :)
