I received this book on Friday and finished it Saturday. I had a hard time putting it down. It is a wonderful story and it makes you wish you could be part of the Cooper family. The story opens with the death of the parents of 3 adult children and before you know it you are wrapped up in their lives and the lives of their parents. The letters are letters from the father to the mom, one every wednesday starting with the day of their marriage and ending the day they die. The letters lay out their life together,from their every day lives to the secrets they kept, and the reactions of their children as they read them. My one criticism would be that each little loose end was too neatly tied up, leaving the reader no opportunity to wonder "what if?"
