Life is like a box of chocolates: you never know what you'll get. Books are like that too. I read a synopsis of this book and thought it sounded appealing. But I found it too closely paralleled parts of my in life, and that made it hard to read. Having one one child go through cancer, and another serious burns from a ground level fire pit, and another lost in infancy. The one thing that ran true in this book is that finding out how to crawl out of those deep pits of despair means learning to accept yourself, your limitations and your attributes, and learning, perhaps again or perhaps for the first time, to love and cherish life--all parts of it, whatever may come. From my own experiences, I found many realistic scenes in this book. Others may find them sappy. But the severe emotional ups and downs that accompany life's tragedies are very much like that.

So apparently I didn't read the full synopsis before starting Bloom as I didn't realize it was part of a series until I had finished it (and it says it is best when read in order). I don't really feel like I missed anything while I was reading, I was never confused as to what was going on or anything, but apparently you get to know Sarah in prior books. As it was Bloom was an interesting read for me. I loved parts of it, loved the sentiment at parts, but hated parts as well. Sarah was kind of all over the place for me. I cannot imagine what she went through, but even so she annoyed the heck out of me at times. So I loved parts, hated parts, and thought parts were just so so. An odd read.

Sarah and James are in love. When James proposes on a camping trip Sarah says yes and they are going to start their life together. Only things don't work out that way. They are both burned in a terrible accident, Sarah more so than James. Sarah has burns on half her body, including her face. The book picks up after she get released from the hospital and has been just wasting away her life hiding in her room. I get it. I cannot imagine how hard it would be to get back to a normal life after something like that. Not only the physical pain involved, but the way people would react to you now wherever you went. Sarah is used to people looking at her, desiring her. She goes on how she always hated that, but at the same time she just wants to be attractive again. She seems incredibly depressed and like she really needs a therapist or someone to talk to about her issues. She is horrible to everyone in her life, not wanting them to be there for her. James has stuck by her side for this entire time, even though she tries her hardest to push him away. She keeps thinking how she needs to find someone else for him as he deserved better. How could he possibly still want to be with her with the way she looks? Really that was some of what I loved/hated about this book. Sarah was all about her physical appearance. Nothing else mattered. She was ugly now so she would never be able to be happy again. Her poor me attitude got on my nerves quite a bit. I understand it would be hard, but she needs help. I just got tired of listening to it after a while. Her friends, though, had a lot of good thoughts.

"'We understand where you're coming from and I guess we can respect that, but try to see what we see.'
'What? That true beauty is within?' I mocked.
'No,' he said. 'That you are still the same old Sarah and if you're getting uglier it has nothing to do with your skin.'"

Exactly. She might not be perfect on the outside, but she sure is ugly on the inside now. I felt bad for her, feel for what she is going through, and couldn't understand why she wasn't seeing someone to talk about all of this. Of course Sarah meets her physical therapist and has a crush on him instantly. His fiancee is like the exact opposite of Sarah. Natalie, the fiancee, is all about makeup and clothing and such. She is beautiful, but also kind of shallow. When Vasili, the physical therapist, wants Sarah to meet his niece, Anastasia, Sarah doesn't want to. But wouldn't you know Anastasia has similar burns on her body and instantly makes Sarah feel better about herself. She pretty instantly wants to start living again thanks to little Anastasia. It was a miracle. That is a part I did not like. I can't imagine that seeing a little dying girl with similar burns who is so positive would fix how dark and depressed and horrible Sarah was. I just didn't buy it was that easy for her to want to start living again. Sure after that she slowly comes out of her shell and starts to move on, but it was too easy it seemed.

The other odd thing? James turns into this crazy bad guy suddenly. Sarah keeps trying to push him away and finally she overhears something and has had enough. So then James just says horrible things to her, but then apologized, then horrible things, and on and on. It was odd. So then Sarah has Vasili.V They both seem to like the other, but he has a fiancee. The whole ending, how everything works out perfect for everyone involved, just was too much at times. It was too easy to get from don't want to live Sarah to Sarah in love. I did like how slowly Sarah did take it at the end though. How she was kind of afraid to move forward. It was nice to see, but then eventually that too got to be a bit much for me. It got to be like come on! Do something already! So yeah, overall I had many ups and downs with this books. Lots of exactly! Yes! followed by parts of eye rolling or annoyance. An interesting read.

This book was very well written and had a little mystery, a little romance, and a tear jerker. The characters were very believable and the main theme was about forgiveness and struggles in life. The author was very passionate about suffering and helping others. I would definitely recommend this book.
Wonderful story of perserverance. I can't iimagine what she went through to overcome her looks. We are the same way as women, so vain, and we want to look our best which is ok, But we should be careful how we judge others with a handicap. She had such a loving heart and. I liked the story and I recommend others to read it with lots of understanding that we could face the same in our lives.

I loved Sarah's story! She's been dealt a few bad cards (don't want to give spoilers), but I think--all things considered--she handles them remarkably well. Sure, she gets down on herself and insecure, but who wouldn't? Physical appearance isn't everything, but in most cases, it's what people see first. And good people can get past that; sometimes it just takes a little time to get to know the person inside. This may be my favorite in the series!
I think that when I am reading a book that is hard to put down, it deserves a five star rating. However, as much as I enjoyed this book, there were many times I had trouble reading it through the tears. Did you purposely write it that way, or am I just too soft hearted? I like a book that ends on a happy note and this one certainly did. This is the first book I have read by you, and I can't honestly say I will look for another one because of the sadness, although I know I oftentimes take the book to heart more than some people.
I normally don't read too many romance books. But every now and then I like to take a break from the thrillers, suspense, paranormal and fantasy to read a good love story. Bloom was a refreshing read for me. I have lived with kidney failure most of my life and could identify greatly with Sarah's need to find happiness in her changed life. If only there was a Vasili out there for me. But she did speak to me in finding ways to learn to love myself and see past my physical limitations. To also find happiness in life that we taken for granted such as nature, a child's smile, a warm coffeehouse or a good book. But most of all, in the true friends and family we have surrounding us with unconditional love.
This was a beautiful, yet heart-wrenching book full of tragedy, tears, pain and loss, but also full of laughter, discovery, forgiveness, and love. I've never read a book so full of hope and life. Sarah, a talented photographer, found herself terribly scarred from a campfire that her fiance didn't put out as she asked. Months and months of pain, grafts, and therapy had to be endured. But during those pain-filled months, Sarah found herself on a journey of discovering what it was to really live, helped along by a dying child. She went through many phases of discovery, culminating in the one thing that each one of us must learn - what it is to really live life, comfortable in your own skin.
