Reading vlog of the book of the moment, the internet's darling, INTERMEZZO, by Sally Rooney. I can already say that it was my favorite by the author so far and I decided to record a vlog of the process of reading this book, sharing my opinions along the way. Synopsis Intermezzo: Ivan and Peter are two brothers with nothing in common. Peter is a lawyer, in his thirties and is the image of a successful man, while Ivan is a young adult in his early twenties, a chess player who seems to have already reached his peak in the past. Both lose their father and, in the midst of the grieving process, they will meet again and kind of change roles, Peter heading towards decline, Ivan towards triumph. For the two grieving brothers and the people they love, this is a new intermezzo -- an interlude of desire, despair and possibilities --, an opportunity to discover what a life can contain without breaking.
