I was very excited to start this book. I kept reading in anticipation that it would get better...it however did not. I love stories that go back in forth from real time to the past. This one did that, but I would have liked a little more concentration on that part of the story rather than the main character's love life that was boring and predictable. I wanted there to be more details and story from the old woman's past. That part of the story was just kind of dropped off and barely a part of the end. If you like chick flick books that include a ton of details about clothes (which I do not) than this would be a great read for you. I think that about 1/3 of the book was explaining vintage clothing and the particulars of all the pieces she carried in her shop. Like I said, great book for a chick flick. I do not care for chick flicks.
