I have given this book to all my girlfriends. It is the best book ever. I know the girls in the book and can relate to them so well. How much fun this is to think we could all go back and make changes in our lives. Really great read.

This was a really good read with a unique plot! Three women reunite at a summerhouse and are given the opportunity from a "Madame Zoya" ro relive any 3 weeks from the past. Interesting!! How will they decide what dream that got away to follow? Read this book and you may just want to go and dust off some of your own old dreams!!

An interesting idea, but the story lines are glossed over and underdeveloped. This would have been a much better book if only one of the three women's story was told at a time. All the good guys are rich and handsome (yeah, really?) and all the bad ones are really bad. The extremes make this a little too predictable. The women are all doormats until their experience. There were a number of plot points glossed over which would have made for a richer experience, such as a courtroom battle we don't get to read, just a gloss over of the outcome. OK for a beach read, but if you are looking for depth, look elsewhere.

Interesting story with a little science fiction thrown in. Three woman who meet at the DMV Office. They get together many years later and share their life's stories. That is when the book really get's interesting and hard to put down. My first book from this author but definitely want to try more of her work!

Three women on a flute meet find out in time that they were put together for a reason. For a christian type book a bit on the supernatural twist, which is something I do not believe in but all in all this is really a good read. Women can relate to these women in today's time. If you could go back and change your life and decide after three weeks if you want the life you already have or the life to begin again at that point, which would you choose. I applauded two of the women in the book and was a bit disappointed in the decision of the third. It is really a good read and I did have a hard time putting the book down. I was reading it before work, at lunch and missing my favortie TV shows to just read the book.
