"Readers of Medwed's earlier novels -Mail and Host Family- will recognize her characteristic witty wordplay and warm, ironic humor. But this is a bigger, deeper book.

Lee's yearning for her first love, Simon, is more than just the typical regret of a middle-aged woman for lost youth and missed opportunities. It's a subtle meditation on life's choices and where they lead us. Can we revise our own fates? Should we? Medwed's handling of these questions is always sympathetic, never heavy-handed, and often quite surprising.

A lovely, satisfying novel." amazon review
