"I found the first 20 or so pages to be dragging on, but after those pages, it is a fun, quirky look at women accompanying ashes to different destinations, forcing them to look back on the life of their friend, and also of themselves. Would your friends do this for you? I really enjoyed this book."

"I have been a Patricia Cornwell fan for years. This book to me, was disappointing. It wasn't like her other books. I had to make myself finish it. that is unusual that I feel that way with this author. Not one of her better ones. I think this is actually the worst book I have read by her. I hope the new Scarpetta one won't be disappointing."

"I absolutely loved this book. I was captivated by the back cover and the lady at the book store, told me she just read it. I found out when I went to pay for it, that it was about a womans struggle with cancer and I wasn't so sure I wanted to buy it, but I had heard how wonderful it was. I am SO glad that I bought it. It was a wonderful read and it wasn't the least bit down, like I thought it was going to be. It was well worth the money I had to pay for it. I highly reccomend this book."

"This book is one of the best books I have ever read. I had a hard time putting it down. It changes how you see the world, even if only by a little bit. how can you read it and NOT be changed. highly recommended reading. This author takes you right into what he is experiencing, and the horridness of the concentration camps. A must read. hope you enjoy it as much as I did. This is one copy of a book, I will NOT be passing on. I can't part with it, at least not yet. It was so touching."

"I normally really enjoy this authors books, but this one left me feeling a little uneasy. there wasn't an easy feeling over the relationships in Liams life. I felt there was something missing. just dropped off, with no real ending unless, I just "missed" it. other than that aspect of it, I did enjoy it."

"My very good friend wrote this book. I read it in its manuscript form and fell in love with the characters even then. It is endearing and her follow up book is just as entertaining. A wonderful book of challanges, love and families sticking together."

"2nd book in series. Can't wait to read the other ones. I did see somewhere, where there are at least 8 books in this series. Can't wait to read them all. I do have #3 in route to me and then have #4 here too. I will repost them for other members once I read them. They are a great, fun read."
