Very good story line and a novel not so easy to put down once you start reading it.This book shows that life changes are not always such a bad thing even though adjustments may not always be welcomed.I especially liked the unexpected outcome at the end of the novel.
Great book!

This book is ideal for anyone who loves books. I recommend it for people who would like to sit down and read books in a cozy chair with a cup of coffee/tea/frappe/frappuccino/(dont forget!!)capuccino and finally ice capuccino (in general any type of drink! :P ),to enjoy a nice afternoon by themselves and the book. Go for it!
simply wonderful
