I thought this was an interesting books. From what I've previously read of Anita Shreve, it was a little different than usual. It is written in the form of flashbacks and memories as the main character is on a train to his sister's funeral. It can be weird and ramble at times, but overall I liked this book.

Nothing surprising in this book, but it is a good read. It just confirms my beliefs about Obama. It seems like he is in his own world doing what Obama wants to do, not what American citizens want or need.

As all of Sparks' books do, this one kept me reading until late in the night. I could not put it down. The characters are more relatable than some of his other books. Loved it!

When I first learned Mead was continuing the VA series but from a different perspective, I was excited but nervous about how it would turn out. I must say, she does not disappoint! I can't wait until the second book comes out!
