Alice’s gift leads to problems at school and she gets sent to a boarding school for difficult children where she makes 2 good friends who we briefly meet again once Alice has moved to London and is trying to find a job she can do. But it took me a while to get Cecelia Ahern´s sophisticated story. First, I was thinking "what on earth is she talking about?" It wasn´t till I was 50-60% through the novel when it hit me! Then I was obsessed with this specific characteristic and was eager to find out how Alice will OWN her LIFE. Alice realised at 8 years of age that she could see the colours of people's moods swirling around them, changing with their thoughts and desires; manifesting their actions. Bewildered by her curse (or is it a gift?), it causes her to be distracted, distant, and different, as others' auras reach out and attempt to affect and influence her too. She must even deflect people's happiness because, 'you shouldn't steal someone else's happiness. You have to make your own.' Alice needs to find a way to live with herself and live her life, in spite of the colourful insights she sees, 'wondering why it is that I see every part of everyone and most of them never see me at all.' This book is her journey: hiding, deflecting and manipulating and finally accepting: her differences become her strength.

If my age doesn't convince you that I know what I'm talking about, at least consider that I am your grandfather and I only want the best for you.

The story follows Alice through her life and the detrimental effect that her ability has on her interactions with others. With photography it’s often a battle to get a fast enough shutter speed to capture your subject without blur or camera shake, but with landscapes, it’s often desirable to use blur creatively in a scene. Freeze a waterfall and you completely lose the sense of movement and drama; but shoot it at a slower shutter speed and it turns into an indistinct blur that speaks volumes about the ferocity of the fall. The problem is that, even in dull light and when you’re shooting at a narrow aperture, you’re unlikely to be able to reach a slow enough shutter speed. An ND filter reduces the amount of light reaching your sensor without affecting the colors; used in conjunction with a tripod it will enable you to achieve exposures several seconds – or even minutes – long. Speaking of light, she sees colorful lights around people (auras) which overwhelm her when she is a child and help her know who to trust when she is older.

Did being the daughter of a former taoiseach help prepare you for being a public figure or encourage you to keep a low profile? Have you ever wondered why people choose different colors? Have you ever thought how particular colors affect you? Do colors affect your mood? Well, most psychologists agree that colors affect our mood. And, certainly, if we like some particular color it says something about us and our personality. How does this work? Easy, with each color we have certain associations, even if we don’t realize these associations consciously, they still have some impact on us and thus, affect the way we feel, think, see and understand things. This is what people call “color psychology”. We sometimes catch ourselves on the moment when some place or person that we usually like annoys us. On subconscious level we notice the color change and we don’t like that. That’s why one should know how to use color psychology in everyday life.
