This book touched me. I resonated with the relationships that were represented. I even tried to get my husband to read it, but he couldn't get into it.

I wanted to love this book. I didn't. I liked it in some places and was bored in others. I found myself skimming (and even wanting to skip) some portions. It would have been a better story without the 'instructions' on how to actually make a quilt.

I absolutely L O V E this book. There is a movie of it, but as usual, there is no comparison. If you have ever been in love, and have ever had a good friend, this book will touch your heart.
