I liked this book although it dragged in the middle. It's a love story that at times morphs from moving into over-the-top and saccharine (which leaves me numb). Loved the ending and cried when it was over. Worth a read but don't skip something amazing to put this on top of your stack.
"Would could not prepare a child for the future; such knowledge might be intolerable." Such an astute observation about why we lie to our children to protect them, even when they aren't little anymore (the child referred to here is 23).
I've read a lot of Anita Shreve. This is my favorite. It's a beautiful yet heart breaking love story.
