In reply to Literary Feline. Yeah I agree I liked this one. I'll stop by your review as well.

I put off reading your review until after I’d written and posted mine. This was my second Maynard book, and I really like her writing style and how real her characters feel as I read about them. I am glad the book ended the way it did as well.

I read the book and saw the movie and don’t understand the author’s love for the movie – it didn’t do her book justice.

Your posts haven’t been showing up in my Reader and the, all of a sudden, I got a half dozen or so old posts all at once.

In reply to Colleen. Wow thanks for the word on the movie. The pie scene is also in the book.

I actually saw the movie without reading the book which is rare for me. I enjoyed the movie but kept wondering where/how/if it departed from the book. There is an amazing scene where Brolin is teaching Winselt and her son to make a peach pie – mouth watering!

In reply to Ti. Hmm. Thanks Ti for your feedback. Not sure what's going on with the feed but I think I plan a change soon to the site which I hope will get it back. I plan to eventually read After Her too, as quite a few bloggers liked it.

I read the book and loved it. I loved her other book that came out late last year… After Her. She is an amazing writer and she is so gracious and supportive of bloggers like us. You gotta love that.

I know you know about how I lost your feed, but I looked and it happened in August. Maybe your feed burner or whatever you use to burn feed kicked the bucket??

Sounds like a fascinating story I’d like to read. Didnt hear about the movie. The story of getting the book sounds so sweet too so Im sure the book means a lot to you
