Self-serving (no surprise there) but surprisingly well-written, particularly the end, which I'd rather dreaded. Very similar in tone to What Remains (2006), and written after (2011). ( )

Not so much a tell-all as it is a loving memorial to a friend. I didn't learn much more about JFK Jr. than had been reported in the press, and some of the descriptive prose veers to awkward ("the pale color of the sky reflects back the sheer measure of your soul"). Pass on this unrevealing work unless you are totally into all things Kennedy. ( )

I read this book for a different purpose and was surprised I found it a pretty good read overall. Typical of the twists and turns that any relationship takes in its course. Christina Haag gives us not only a character perspective of the man we all knew as John-John, but also how two people struggle to define themselves in a relationship. And not just any relationship but one that balances celebrity with personal goals and ambitions in the glare of the public eye. And at times gives a glimpse of the adventurous nature of the man that took him to the edge. ( )

Yes, I read this. A girl has to have a little fluff in her life. ( )

A tasteful memoir about a young woman and a young man who share a long term relationship of love and friendship. ( )

"Lyrically and precisely captures the frenetic ecstasy of early love."--
tilføjet af katyasam | RedigerWashington Post
 
Ms Haag was profoundly sensitive to this complex young man...With her, we enter the strange world of the Kennedys, with various family compounds from Palm Beach to Hyannisport...The overall impression of COME TO THE EDGE is sadness at the path not taken by a still young man who might yet be with us.'Johnny, we hardly knew ye' indeed, but Christina did, and thanks to her, now we do a little more."

"COME TO THE EDGE is the exceeding rare "kiss and tell" book that is much more about the kiss than the tell. [A] passionate memoir...written with extraordinary delicacy and restraint."
tilføjet af katyasam | RedigerHamptons Magazine
 
"A tender tale. Vivid...moving...romantic."
tilføjet af katyasam | RedigerProvidence Journal
 
"Lyrically written...a moving portrayal...magical."

The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemicals substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.

––Carl Jung
Come to the edge.
We might fall.
Come to the edge.
It's too high!
COME TO THE EDGE!
And they came,
and he pushed,
and they flew.

Remembrance is a form of meeting.
