*They could not be more different, but begin a romance.
*After a short separation, they reunite with Lily becoming pregnant.
*They don't remain together, but Lily raises a son on her own.
*When their son is grown, he begins to question his mother about his father and begins a relationship with the man he never knew. What I Thought of It - Five Observations/Reflections... *I enjoyed the first half of the novel. I was drawn into Lily and her son's story.
*Once I began the section about Lily's mother, I found myself losing interest in the plot.
*The overall reading of the book was easy, but I wasn't always engaged in what was happening.
*The members of the staff book club seemed as though they enjoyed the story more than I did.
*This book sure got a lot of "buzz", but after reading I'm not sure why.
Who Should Read It... *I do think this is the perfect novel published for adults that could be used in book clubs. There is quite a bit to discuss, ponder, and share ideas. Happy Reading!
