Another spoiler warning. Do not scroll down any further if you do not want to read about the ending to Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Unlike what happened to the author, the fictional couple in this novel don’t agree on how to manage and treat their son’s illness so the courts must intervene and make a decision to continue treatment or let him go. The author did a magnificent job detailing the emotional and physical toll on everyone when a child is critically ill. It made me think about my own beliefs and wonder what I would do when there is not one “right” choice. I liked how the author brought in the power of the press and social media along with the public’s rush to judgment without knowing all the facts. This is a major change of pace novel for this author who writes thrillers. What a feat for her to successfully transition into such a serious and emotional genre. I’m in awe of her talent and look forward to what she comes out with next!
There you go. The list of manhwa/manga similar to The Beginning After the End is here. You might feel some of the titles are off the topics to be similar. In the latter half of the book, After The End follows an unusual structure. Pip’s chapters follow her narrative following the imagined scenario if she won in court. Max’s chapters follow his perspective following what would happen if he won in court. This was both interesting a frustrating to follow as a reader. It was fascinating to compare how different choices could impact the characters lives in such a profound way. It was also a bit frustrating and awkward to follow two separate story lines between breaks after each chapter. In some ways, reading a book which follows one storyline that moves ahead in time feels preferable to following two divergent stories, however thought provoking. Heart-wrenching. Thought-provoking. Emotion-stirring. This has earned a spot on my Favourites List. I can’t put my thoughts into words, but both manhwas are pretty similar. It is, by far, the closest one on the list to The Beginning After the End. I felt that hope too.....as the book ends on a POSITIVE note, not a sad one..no matter which parent you side with, and despite the difficult subject of a toddler who is dying.Parents often have to make tough decisions. Occasionally, they may have to make what seems like an impossible decision. “ After the End” does an excellent job of showing what the outcome might be for both sides of an incredibly hard decision. However, it's been rumoured that Tessa will have a reduced role in After Everything with fans speculating that her scenes in the trailer were filmed for After Ever Happy, and recycled for the new movie. LINDSEY POGUE is a genre-bending fiction author, best known for her soul-stirring, post-apocalyptic survival series, Savage North Chronicles and Forgotten Lands. As an avid romance reader with a master’s in history and culture, Lindsey’s adventures cross genres and push boundaries, weaving together facts, fantasy, and timeless love stories of epic proportions.
As with any parent out there Max and Pip only want what is best for their son but after the terminal prognosis they are given a choice on Dylan’s care and the couple cannot agree on what would be the best decision. When Max and Pip come to a stale mate the court is brought in to be the deciding factor. Max and Pip are a young married couple that thought they had everything going for. Very much in love and with a wonderful son things were good until one day they were’t. These parents get the most devastating news when they find Dylan has a brain tumor. An interesting format but the first half was much better than the second, especially since my favorite character wasn't present anymore. I didn't end up caring about the characters as much as I hoped which left me feeling heartless and apathetic. How do they make such a soul-searching decision? Quality of life vs quantity. At the end of the day will they be able to live with their decision and its consequences? What a nightmare to be told your child is terminal with no hope of recovery. How can you make decisions when every cell in your body doesn’t want to let your precious child die, but regardless of the decisions made, your child will die. It’s just a matter of when. What makes a life worth living? Who decides?We're about to go into some spoilers for After Ever Happy, so look away now if you haven't seen the movie yet. This decision is hard enough but when Max and Pippa’s decisions are not the same, they have to let the courts decide. Their relationship is stretched to breaking point at a time when they should be there for one other. The second half of the book explores what would happen if the judge decides what will happen regarding Dylan's terminal illness.. If he decides in the Mother's favor, what lies in store for their son and for each parent. If the Judge runs in the Father's favor, what lies in store for their son and each parent. This was an interesting concept but also a repetitive one. Unlike the book it's based on (which ends with a flash-forward where Tessa and Hardin have two children), the fourth movie ends on a bleaker note as Tessa and Hardin aren't together. The magical drink that Odin and Tyr use to survive the end of their world is Norse skin for Isu tech and in a Codex entry for the Jotunheim King Suttingr, Shaun Hastings notes that the mead seems “a metaphor for something else.” It’s not clear what this actually is, but it means that Eivor is actually a descendant, if not the full reincarnation of the Isu Odin centuries down the line.
