• Perhaps next time a little more charm and a little less fluff?
  Perhaps my first mistake is that this is simply not the type of book I usually read. I have never before read Jane Green and only picked up this book because a magazine recommended it and I thought a quirky old lady in Nantucket would be delightul and whimsical.

  I really enjoyed this book. Not having read any of Jane Green's writing, I went with the notion that as a best seller, it had to be good. And I was not disapointed.

• wonderful book
  Light, fun summer reading. Green's style is very intimate. I felt as though she was sitting across the table from me and telling me the details of her characters lives. And what characters they are. Motivation is something that always look for. Many times it's hard to find. But here the characters' actions and feelings make sense.

• An Easy Read
  An easy read with nothing too mind straining, but totally enjoying. Holds your interest while not taxing the brain.
