Rather sad, yet beautiful story. The number of characters was a bit of a block for me, but all in all a worthwhile read.What a book! I won't lie and say that I'm trying to stop crying. Quite the tearjerker and what a wonderful story! I won't tell you why i'm crying but, you should read this book then go hold your family an tell them you love them. Love that every chapter ended with a recipie. Maybe I'll be domestic and make something.
4.5 starsOh gosh, what a story! Hows it possible I have not read a Jane Green book until now! I will hunt for her other books asap.I expected this book to be a light and happy read but nope, it was a tearjerker and a half, thank goodness for the recipes at the end of each chapter which gave me a few moments to calm myself, although I did shake my head a few times at the huge amount of sugar that is used in most of these recipes. But still, I loved this book!Steffi and Callie are amazing sisters,
One: I really liked seeing a recipe at the end of every chapter.Two: I've picked up this book at Borders, thinking that I should read something different for a change. I had my doubts, since I had always leaned more towards fantasy or action-packed novels. Then, I started reading this book two days ago, and I didn't regret it. It brought me through laughter and tears.The book started with a look at various characters' lives; a peep into their past; an experience of their present. I have to be
I've only read a couple books by Jane Green and was not impressed but this book was unbelievable. Granted I am 7 1/2 months pregnant and have a toddler of my own but this book had me bawling. I was so invested in the characters and what happened to each that I almost couldn't finish the book out of fear of what would happen. Steff is your typical chick lit, flighty character and you can pretty much predict what would happen to her in the end. Still the story was written in such a way that it
It was genuinely heart-breaking,I never cried by reading a book like with this one.The book is wonderfully written and the characters are people you would want to know and can relate to.Would highly recommend
If I wanted a recipe at the end of every chapter I would read a cookbook
