“My husband requested that I download this book because a Facebook friend had written it. I downloaded a sample, and way before I completed it, I ordered the book. The descriptions are rich and wonderful. I'm a voracious reader, and often I will skip some of the descriptions to get to plot points more quickly. But not this time. I found myself rereading some of the descriptions so I could be sure I was getting every last little morsel of detail. No word felt extraneous, none was wasted. I wanted to savor each and every part. I found the style somewhat reminiscent of John Irving, perhaps even E.L. Doctorow.

“I wanted to write a review from the beginning, but I wanted to make sure the author could sustain the voice of the novel and bring off the story line before doing so. So I waited. I spent the afternoon yesterday reading the rest of the book, and I can say without reservation that this book accomplished all it set out to. I loved it.”
