This book was pretty powerful and thought-provoking! It started slowly, an old woman in a nursing home, confused (which I went back to later, and it all made sense), but when it started at the beginning of parallel lives she'd led, I couldn't put it down! "Now and never" her fiance told her and with each of those choices, she led a different life----I read until 3 am! Couldn't stop! The only thing I will say is that the ending is a tiny bit disappointing, at least to me, where I hoped the mystery would be cleared up, but it wasn't. Still, I highly recommend it!! GOOD BOOK.
