Liked It
“Great book - a little slow at the beginning, lots of suprise twists. I was thrown by Sydney's relationship with Jeff - the speed, the ease, the loss. I would have liked more of a love trianlge with brother Ben - harsh sibling rivalry, almost expected ending.”

Didn’t Like It
“I found it hard to like the characters in Shreve's novel. The main character, a woman, seems so gullible, naive and frustrating. Her fiance (who jilts her at the alter) is too obviously a jerk even though Shreve tries to show him as someone that others might not see through. And when the main character eventually falls in love with her fiancee's brother, it isn't very satisfying.”
