I guess I must be in the minority but I agree with those who did not care for the book. I very much disliked the main character, so it was difficult to feel any sympathy or empathy towards her. Her choices were odd and silly. That she could stalk a man and move next door to him, set up meeting him, hit it off with him on their first meeting like magic, then actually marry him, simply did not ring true. It all seemed so fabricated, not at all plausible. I read a review that said the last few pages were a two Kleenex tear jerker. I did not find this so. I was happy to be done with her.
