This was such a great book and I'm so glad that I found it. It was assigned for a book club I was in and typically I only read mystery and so I was skeptical. I would recommend that you not read the inside cover. I read it when I first started but by the time I got into it I had forgot what it said. The story of Ria's life is very attention grabbing and reading the inside cover only lets you know ahead of time what will happen. i believe it could ruin the suspense/surprise for you.

I hope this is helpful and that the size of the book does not deter you.

I love Binchy's writing... and this is the one book that has disappointed me with a predictable and unsatisfying ending. It's my fault though... every time I have read a book from Oprah's Book Club - I regret the decision. I was hoping that having enjoyed Binchy's other novels that this one might be different and I was wrong. My bad.

Enjoyable book. The beginning (first half) was slow - I felt like I was reading for quite some time before we got to the houseswap between Marilyn and Ria. Not a quick read, but a very good read.
