The characters in this one definitely had their own quirks, and none were the type of people I'd want to call my best friend, but it was interesting to step into their lives for a short while.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-22539178584850680242008-04-27T08:23:00.000-07:002008-04-27T08:23:00.000-07:00Sounds like a good curled up in bed on a rainy Sat...Sounds like a good curled up in bed on a rainy Saturday type book. I read Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant last year and hated it, but this one sounds more personable. I don't think that's the word I'm looking for, but do you know what I mean?Trish @ Love, Laughter, Insanityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17225576485797030511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-11854805631622590622008-04-25T23:03:00.000-07:002008-04-25T23:03:00.000-07:00Thank you, Alice.

I hope you will enjoy it.<BR/><BR/>Nikki - Thank you!<BR/><BR/>Illiana - I think this is the author's first book. <BR/><BR/>Florinda - If you do read it, I hope you will like it!<BR/><BR/>Linda - Thank you! I appreciate different types of endings too. Some stories just aren't meant to end happily ever or even with every loose string tied off.<BR/><BR/>Melody - Thanks! I wasn't quite sure what to expect with it, but I did like it quite a bit as you can see. <BR/><BR/>Jaimie - Thanks! There was on scene in particular that was quite disturbing, and I think it might turn people off of the book once they get to it. Unfortunately, it's near the end so I can't say what exactly it is. <BR/><BR/>Anca - Thank you for linking my review!
