SLOW!!
I did not make it past the first 100 pages. None of the characters intrested me at all.

The author is a great story teller and this was a very easy read. I really enjoyed the book Agnes was writing about the blast in Halifax in the 1930's. But I found this book very sad - about relationships that never were or missed chances. It makes me appreciate my life and my loved ones.

This book starts out with a bang and gradually fizzles out. I had the feeling that the author lost interest in the characters and plot and just wanted to finish writing it. I kept reading it with expectation but was sorely disappointed as the plot deteriorated into a boring, silly narration.

This is a wonderfully written story of love and life. It is a beautiful story that wanders through the lives of friends during a weekend reunion. It is about life and love, hopes and dreams, expectations and reality. I really enjoyed this book. I think it is one of her best. A true story teller's story.

Not my favorite Shreve book, but a good read anyway.

High school classmates come together for the wedding of two of their own. Love, loss, and secrets.

Another engaging Anita Shreve story.
