In reply to susan. It's going to be in my top 10 for the year. I hope you like it!

In reply to Catherine. Oh thanks for letting me know about Lynch's Before the Wind. I have a copy!

In reply to Lauren. She is funny throughout, but the plot is too weird for me.

Damn. I know I will still read it, but to be honest, this is one of a few followups that I have been really fearful of picking up (Donald Ray Pollock’s being the top of the fear list). I hope you don’t get kicked out of Seattle, isn’t it a vive le difference kind of place? I’m sorry you didn’t love it, but I love an honest review, good or bad, and I’m sure parts (hopefully not all) of this will resonate with me as I read it. I’m not a huge fan of “far out,” so I’m going in with trepidation.

In reply to Tara. At the very least, you can comfortably wait for it at your library, Tara! I know it worked for some people, I just wasn't one of them.

I completely agree with your assessment. It was one of those books that I had to make myself pick up to finish, hoping it would get better. Alas, it really didn’t.

Such a bummer about this one 🙁 I started it (just a few pages!) and set it down, mostly because I just wasn’t in the mood, but now I’m not sure if I’ll end up getting to it…it seems that many people haven’t been totally thrilled.

Well, I guess this makes me feel a little better; I just texted Sarah, in distress, because Amazon is telling me that I can’t buy a Kindle version right now and there are a million holds on the copies at my local library. Thank you for managing my disappointment, Catherine! 🙂

In reply to Eva @ The Paperback Princess. You are so right about the Shopaholic books!! I loved the early ones, but by the time she went to L.A. and then her father disappeared?! It went from funny to silly.

Awww that’s too bad! I may still pick it up, but at least I know if I don’t love it, I’m not alone. 😉
