This was a very good book. I'm not a huge "chick-lit" fan, and while this one does have some women's fiction elements to it, it also has so much more. The story just grabbed my attention and never let it go. I'm still thinking about it.
I love how the author uses the vintage clothing and Phoebe's higher end clothing store Village Vintage to bring all the parts of the story together. The main character states that she loves vintage items because she imagines the history that comes along with each piece of clothing. The author uses the stories behind the clothes along with the main character's life to tell the story, and it's almost like she's weaving together a vintage outfit herself.
I can't say too much without giving out spoilers, but the stories within the story are very moving- one in particular.
I loved reading this one, and I would definitely try another book by this author.
