52 Book Club 2023: #3 Title Starting With The Letter “g”

After a heartbreak, my friend introduced me to a cycling club. I didn't expect what seemed like an ordinary cycling night to have such a hidden, unspeakable thrill. As I watched my friend interact with a male member, my gaze faltered, and my heart raced. I couldn't help but wonder if I might try something like that too. Because... I'd been waiting for a moment like this for far too long.

คนที่แอบชอบหายไปจนลืมหน้าคร่าตา แล้วเธอจะเลือกใครในเมื่อพวกเขากลับมาอีกครั้งพร้อมกันตั้ง 3 คน

In the middle of Tokyo’s relentless rush, two strangers cross paths—by accident, in the most ridiculous way, and at the most unexpected moment—yet it feels as if the universe had quietly arranged it all. What follows are hesitant steps, faltering words, and small messages that slowly create a warm, quiet space between them. Tokyo Love Letter: Hibiki is a story where silence speaks, where ordinary days suddenly begin to matter, and where someone appears out of nowhere… only to become a place to return to, and a space to simply be oneself. This isn’t a story about falling in love quickly, but about feeling it grow—quietly, unexpectedly—through coincidences, through distance, and through the little things we never meant to hold on to.

Namoramos por cinco anos. Nesse tempo, meu noivo — um advogado — cancelou nosso casamento 52 vezes. Na primeira, a estagiária dele errou um documento. Ele voltou ao escritório às pressas e me deixou esperando sozinha na praia o dia inteiro. Na segunda, durante a cerimônia, soube que a estagiária estava sendo humilhada por outro advogado. Ele foi ajudar ela, e eu fiquei sendo alvo de piadas entre os convidados. Depois disso, sempre havia algum problema com ela que o fazia me abandonar de novo. Até que me cansei. No dia em que saí da cidade, ele me procurou desesperado. Mas eu já tinha ido embora.

"Abby Davison only wants to focus on her career as a nurse, as she has no time for dating after a bad breakup over a year ago. When her mother presses her about settling down, Abby tells her a little white lie: she’s dating Mark Thornton, the handsome and gruff rancher who both frustrates and makes her heart flutter every time they meet. When Mark overhears Abby's lie, he decides to cut her a deal: to keep his silence regarding their make-believe relationship, she'll come to live with him on his ranch until his broken arm heals. Despite her wounded pride and initial trepidation, Abby can’t help but begin to fall for the guarded Thornton brother as the days pass on his ranch. The black sheep of the family, Mark makes no secret that he prefers horses over people. His brusque exterior, though, only conceals hidden depths and a wounded heart that Abby understands all too clearly. As feelings start to bloom between them, neither is sure what is real and what’s make-believe. Yet the sizzling attraction between them is anything but fake, and with every kiss and every touch, they fall harder for each other. But as their pasts begin to creep toward them, unearthing secrets both would rather keep buried, Abby and Mark must learn to trust each other—or risk losing the love both never knew they needed."

Fünf Jahre lang waren wir ein Paar, doch mein Freund, ein Anwalt, sagte ganze 52 Mal unsere Hochzeit ab. Beim ersten Mal machte seine Praktikantin, die er betreute, einen Fehler mit einem Formular in der Kanzlei. Daraufhin eilte er sofort zurück und ließ mich den ganzen Tag allein am Strand zurück. Beim zweiten Mal erfuhr er mitten in der Zeremonie, dass ein anderer Anwalt die Praktikantin schikanierte. Also ging er, um ihr zu helfen, und ließ mich zum Gespött der Gäste zurück. Danach, egal für welchen Termin ich die Hochzeit ansetzte, die Praktikantin hatte immer irgendein Problem, das seine Hilfe erforderte. Schließlich war ich völlig entmutigt und frustriert. Ich beschloss, Schluss zu machen. Doch an dem Tag, an dem ich aus Stadt A wegzog, suchte er mich wie verrückt.

Financial reporter Zoey, known for her pride and icy beauty, and with a formidable business acumen, finds herself at the center of a scandal on the very day she and financial tycoon Barlen are to get their marriage license. An insider exposes her, claiming that she loves only Barlen's wealth and that their marriage is merely a product of her exquisite acting skills. Unaware of the brewing storm, Zoey and Barlen are in the midst of obtaining their license when the news breaks. Barlen, upon reading the revelations, 'borrows' Zoey's phone and promptly turns it off, facing the onslaught of public opinion with firm evidence in hand. Surrounded by media reporters, Barlen is bombarded with questions about his perspective on the scandal. He deliberately twists the narrative: "My wife, she doesn't just love my money. Could she possibly love someone else's?" The reporters press on, clarifying their query: "Do you mean she only loves money, not you as a person?" Barlen remains composed: "She loves my money, and I love her as a person. Is there a problem with that?" In a single sentence: He redeems her with all his love and warmth. How could I not be enamored with someone like you?

Both of them lost their parents. Both of them have to lead their pack. They didn't see each other but they already love each other. Will fate bring them together or will they never meet? Zoe is 18 years old she-wolf, who is temporarily leading her pack until her brother is ready to take over. She made that deal with her parents before they died. Asher is 20 years old Alpha, who is trying to avenge his parents' death. They become friends in an online chat room for orphans. After a while they fall in love, but will they be mates? What if one of them meets their mate and is hiding because of that?

On the day of my wedding anniversary, I was cleaning my house when I found a picture album. As it turned out, my husband had been religiously taking pictures with the girl of his dreams every year on this precise date. He had been doing it since he was forty years old and he was now sixty years old. His hair had progressed from a jet black to a faded white and yet, he kept up the tradition. There was a written message in his handwriting at the back of the picture that read, “Eternal Love.” Since he doesn't love me, I will no longer bother washing his clothes and cooking for him. I will no longer care for his children and grandchildren. I may have foolishly wasted half of my life, but it was not too late to make a change.
