Quando Silvy mi ha proposto di fare un post, insieme a Jessica, in cui bisognava associare delle
coppie di libri a canzoni di Taylor Swift ovviamente non potevo dire di no. Si ringrazia l'aiuto delle mie amiche Cate e Mary, rispettivamente fan e assolutamente non fan di Taylor. Fatemi sapere se anche voi vedete certe connessioni o se ne avreste messe altre!
Eleanor & Park - This Love
Eleanor & Park, di Rainbow Rowell
This love is good
This love is bad
This love is a life back from the dead, oh
These hands had to let it go free
And, this love came back to me, oh
This love is bad
This love is a life back from the dead, oh
These hands had to let it go free
And, this love came back to me, oh
Perché: c'è l'idea di questo amore che per loro è buono ma crea dei problemi, che fa rivivere in un certo senso entrambi e che, si spera, dopo quel finale li abbia ricongiunti.
Lara Jean & Peter K - Tim McGraw
Tutte le volte che ho scritto ti amo, di Jenny Han
But in a box beneath my bed
Is a letter that you never read
From three summers back
It's hard not to find it all a little bitter sweet
And lookin' back on all of that, it's nice to believe
Is a letter that you never read
From three summers back
It's hard not to find it all a little bitter sweet
And lookin' back on all of that, it's nice to believe
Perché: il riferimento alla scatola con la lettera sotto al letto, ovviamente!
A study in Charlotte, di Brittany Cavallaro
They take their shots, but we're bulletproof
And you know for me, it's always you
In the dead of night, your eyes so green
And I know for you, it's always me
Perché: sicuramente per le ripetute sparatorie durante la serie e per la predestinazione dei due personaggi diciamo.
Audrey Rose & Thomas - Sparks Fly
Stalking Jack the Ripper, di Kerri Maniscalco
My mind forgets to remind me, your a bad idea
You touch me once and it's really something
You find I'm even better than you, imagined I would be
I'm on my guard for the rest of the world
But with you I know its no good
And I could wait patiently
But I really wish you would
You touch me once and it's really something
You find I'm even better than you, imagined I would be
I'm on my guard for the rest of the world
But with you I know its no good
And I could wait patiently
But I really wish you would
Perché: uno schiaffo alle rigide regole del 1800!
Cinder, di Marissa Meyer
And this is when the feeling sinks in,
I don't wanna miss you like this,
Come back... be here, come back... be here.
[...]
This is falling in love in the cruelest way,
This is falling for you when you are worlds away.
I don't wanna miss you like this,
Come back... be here, come back... be here.
[...]
This is falling in love in the cruelest way,
This is falling for you when you are worlds away.
Perché: diciamo che ho preso il "worlds away" in maniera piuttosto letterale. E anche l'innamorarsi nonostante la distanza.
Wolf, di Ryan Graudin
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
Never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips
Never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips
Perché: su questa taccio, chi sa sa.
Fangirl, di Rainbow Rowell
Is it cool that I said all that?
Is it chill that you're in my head?
'Cause I know that it's delicate (delicate)
Is it cool that I said all that
Is it too soon to do this yet?
'Cause I know that it's delicate
Is it chill that you're in my head?
'Cause I know that it's delicate (delicate)
Is it cool that I said all that
Is it too soon to do this yet?
'Cause I know that it's delicate
Perché: mi è sembrato che questo passaggio di Delicate rappresentasse bene tutti i dubbi di Cath sulla relazione/le sue ansie.
The Royal We, di Heather Cocks e Jessica Morgan
This is the last time I'm asking you this,
Put my name at the top of your list,
Put my name at the top of your list,
This is the last time I'm asking you why,
You break my heart in the blink of an eye, eye, eye
You find yourself at my door,
Just like all those times before,
Just like all those times before,
You wear your best apology,
But I was there to watch you leave
Perché: non voglio farvi spoiler, ma il romanzo è fortemente ispirato ad una famosa coppia inglese che potete benissimo immaginare e c'è un momento che mi ricordava questa canzone.
Where she went, di Gayle Forman
And I just wanna tell you
It takes everything in me not to call you.
And I wish I could run to you.
And I hope you know that every time I don't
I almost do,
I almost do.
Perché: più che a Resta anche domani ho pensato al secondo romanzo della duologia, Resta sempre qui (Where she went in inglese, molto più adatto come titolo) ma taccio ancora per gli spoiler!

Infinito + 1, di Amy Harmon
In a getaway car, oh-oh
No, they never get far, oh-ahh
No, they never get far, oh-ahh
No, nothing good starts in a getaway car
