These are great stories...James Patterson's "soft" side really came out in "Suzanne's Diary for Nicholas". The Ice Child was wonderful; it's actually two easy to follow stories running parallel...both a happy and a sad ending at the same time. One of my very favorite reads. For all you computer fans, "The Blue Nowhere" is another great read. A terrific fast paced story with a thrilling conclusion. Anne Tyler really came through with "Back When we Were Grownups". Interesting story with hits on your emotions.
