Apparently a very popular author and book.
It was a very slow slog for me. I'd read Pieces of Happiness by Anne Ostby just before this one, in just over a day...but this took me a week to get through.
So, I kept comparing them...both realistic and emotional, with interesting characters (at least this one had a single narrator!). And yet it was a slog.
I don't think I ever connected with the widow (though I have gone through the same). I think the over descriptiveness was off-putting...in the way it was done, scattered. And yet, I often thought I might write in a similar storytelling style (which made me question my own writing...until I read her bio).
