Purple Hearts: A Novel

Product Information

El libro estuvo muy lindooo, lo juro, y me dejo con esa sensacion preciosa de QUE VIVA EL AMOOOR pero me falto ese algo especial I still liked the story, but not a 5-star read as it was the first time I read it. I’d probably say a 3.75. I’m curious to watch the Netflix film at the end of July. Frankie Cucciolo, Blue Power Ranger to my Pink. The closest I had to a brother growing up. Mom cleaned his neighbor’s house while we shot water guns at each other and watched Free Willy over and over. Nora, hello, wow, Armando said. He barely noticed that I had put the Bud in front of him. I’m Armando. And for a wonderful moment, we were all together, the three of us—me, my mom, and my gut. The traffic moved a whole twelve inches forward, and a breeze sailed through my open window.

Nothing specific, I said, feeling my chest tighten. You know, just family stuff. I’ll find a motel on the way.

Yeah, yeah. I waved my hand. I knew what she was going to say. I’ve been too obsessed with getting the EP perfect. I see that now. We just need to go for it. A whole album of new songs is better than four, like, perfected songs, right? Cassie Salazar and Luke Morrow couldn’t be more different. Sharp-witted Cassie works nights at a bar in Austin, Texas to make ends meet while pursuing her dream of becoming a singer/songwriter. Luke is an Army trainee, about to ship out for duty, who finds comfort in the unswerving discipline of service. But a chance encounter at Cassie’s bar changes the course of both their lives. So relax and enjoy this time, Captain Grayson was finishing. Use it wisely. Remember you represent the Sixth Battalion, Thirty-fourth Red Horse Infantry Division, and the United States Army. When you return to duty, you’ll be in a combat zone. Armando had joined us again, this time accompanied by a ginger guy in an unfortunate striped shirt and glasses. Soldiers not your type, huh, the guy slurred, gesturing to me as he slumped on the bar. We can fight for your ass but we can’t touch it?

Luke tiene tres comportamientos reprochables en todo el libro y ambos están al comienzo de la historia. El primero se da la noche que conoce a Cassie en el bar cuando no hace ni dice nada en el momento en que uno de sus compañeros tira un comentario misógino y paternalista a la protagonista. El segundo cuando le propone a Cassie casarse sin contarle su pasado como adicto y las deudas que tiene por ello. El tercero cuando, después del casamiento arreglado, están cenando todos los militares con sus respectivas parejas y varios de ellos exteriorizan opiniones xenofóbicas sobre los árabes sin que Luke diga ni haga nada para frenarlas. Por todas estas actitudes, él se arrepiente y termina pidiendo disculpas. As Cassie, who has now achieved her dreams in becoming a successful artist towards the end of the movie, prepares to play the grand event at the Hollywood Bowl, she watches her and Luke’s wedding video. I have some other stuff to take care of. I don’t want to—yeah. I should have just said good point and let it drop. My dad and I don’t get along. And Jake’s got a wife and a kid. I don’t want to burden them. As of August 2023, Netflix has not announced a sequel to Purple Hearts. However, some viral posts on social media claimed that a second film is imminent. Cassie: Didn’t like her, didn’t feel like I knew her, didn’t care what happened to her. She’s not a bad person, she’s just not really interesting. She got fired, she got diabetes (dietitian rant about this later), she worked in a bar, she is a musician, she gets married, and that’s about it. There was nothing vibrant or compelling about her.Hopefully, that’s everything you need to know so that you can decide on whether or not to watch Purple Hearts! You know what, I know you’re going to be short on money, she continued. I’ll pay for the prep course. Its noted that the author did consult with people who suffered from type II diabetes, so as to portray the illness in a real way. But I didnt find this particular choice of illness to make a whole lot of sense. There are so many other illnesses the author (or rather Alloy Entertainment since this company came up with the concept of this novel) could have chosen to use in this novel to make this a little bit more believable, especially in the area of cost. Last time I had seen Jake, I had brought him a list of apologies I had written on St. Joseph’s stationery, where I had just spent ten days detoxing. He’d shut the door in my face. I still had the piece of paper folded up in my bag a year later, as if I’d never be able to write it again.

Diabetes: WAS THERE ANY RESEARCH DONE HERE?? I saw that the author is from Golden Valley, MN, seriously, if you want to correct this story or ever want to write about diabetes again I know many dietitians and certified diabetes educators in the Cities who you can speak to because you really screwed this up. First off, why type 2? It’s very unusual for a healthy 20-something to get type 2 diabetes. Perhaps she really had type 1? Type 1 can develop much more rapidly. Someone with type 2 diabetes develops it over many, many years, they don’t just flip a switch and have it in a month or two. Second, why was she always having all of these low blood glucose episodes? People with type 2, unless they’re on insulin, do not have low blood sugar problems (and it was said that Cassie wasn’t on insulin). People with diabetes have faulty insulin meaning the sugar is staying in their blood giving them HIGH BLOOD GLUCOSE READINGS, not low. Third, how the hell was she on seven medications? That’s insane. I’ve met a lot of diabetics and I’ve never encountered one (even ones with very poor control) on seven medications. Are there even seven diabetes medications? I will ask an endocrinologist. Fourth, when her diet was described she was eating a lot of carbs and seemed to be avoiding meats? And let the poor girl have some cake from time to time. I don’t know a single RD or CDE who says someone with diabetes can never have sweets. Nora breezed past in jeans as tight as a second skin and a cropped Stones T, glancing at my list. Big plans? I smiled. A text on a day we didn’t have band practice? And before midnight? This was new. When the traffic stopped, I started replying, Maybe I’ll come over after work, but stopped. I’d let him wait. Toby was a tall, long-haired Cat Stevens lookalike who played a musical instrument. In Austin. He’d be fine. I was probably one of three women who received that text anyway. Cassie is drowning in the medical bills after being diagnosed with the diabetes. When she meets her old friend Frankie, who is now drafted into the army, she proposes a deal: she marries him in exchange for better health insurance and they can share the raise that comes with having a “family”.They said that business was down, and they were combining my job with Stephanie’s, and Stephanie had been there longer, so, wah-wah. I made a sad-horn sound. Good-bye, Cassie." Los guionistas de Netflix supieron eliminar las partes más odiosas de la protagonista para lograr que en la pantalla el público pudiera empatizar con ella. Y transformaron una historia que muy dudosamente se podría considerar de "amor" en un drama romántico. Yo los aplaudiría. Cassie is a horrible main character. She's selfish and scattered and doesn't stand for anything. The writer wrote her so horribly I couldn't even root for her.
