Synopsis

'Heartrending and compelling' JOJO MOYES on Recipe for Life

My heart is less than 1% of my body, it weighs hardly anything; it is only a tiny piece of me, yet it is the part everyone finds most interesting.

Vivi Palmer knows what it's like to live life carefully. Born with a heart defect, she was given a second chance after a transplant, but has never quite dared to make the most of it. Until she comes face-to-face with her donor's mother, Grace, who wants something in return for Vivi's second-hand heart: her help to find all the other people who have tiny pieces of her son.

Reluctantly drawn into Grace's mission, Vivi's journalist training takes over as one by one she tracks down a small group of strangers. As their lives intertwine Vivi finds herself with a new kind of family, and by finding out more about all the pieces that make up the many parts of her, Vivi might just discover a whole new world waiting for her...

Reviews

Goodreads review by Justina

"Švari širdis, pilna meilės širdis, tyra širdis; kiek daug tikimės iš mums gyvybę palaikančio organo, iš 300 ar panašiai gramų raumens, kamerų ir vožtuvų, kurie suplaka šimtą tūkstančių kartų per dieną. Nebuvau tikra, ar mano širdis tyra, ir jau tikrai ji nebuvo tobula, tačiau žinojau, kad ji pilna......more

Perskaičius gana įdomų kriminalinį trilerį nusprendžiau, jog norisi jautraus romano. Pasirodė, jog tam puikiai tiktų "Dalelė manęs". Anksčiau teko skaityti vieną šios autorės kūrinį, tad visuomet malonu draugystę ir pratęsti. Vivi Palmer nuo pat mažumės gyveno visiškai kitokį gyvenimą. Mergaitė gimė......more
