Summary: Just not a fan of this book-
Comment: I agree with the person who said there's no plot! These characters need to get up and DO something instead of just thinking about their situations.
By the end of the first few chapters, I knew this book was a waste of my time. Don't waste yours!
Rating: 5
Summary: Read this book!
Comment: This is truly one of the best books I've ever read by someone who's still breathing.
It all rang true, from the New York atmosphere to the ups and downs of the couple's relationship to the slight tinge of resentment over Nora's mostly giving and sweet relationship with her aunt. Every page brought the sort of "ah-ha" moment when you read something that seems like it should be obvious but that is worded in a way that makes it seem entirely new and fresh--kind of, "I could have thought of that--nah, who am I kidding."
This is one of those books that you finish and instantly turn back to page one to start again and recommend to your friends while envying them the experience of discovering it for the first time.
Wonderful, just wonderful.

Summary: Not a fan of this book
Comment: I didn't like this book at all! The characters were incredibly frustrating because they refused to communicate their true feelings with each other, which caused plenty of avoidable heartache on both sides. I wanted to yell at them to get out of their own heads and get a life! The writer had a very disjointed style. He would have a paragraph or two that was well thought out and flowed beatifully, followed by a paragraph that seemed haphazard and totally out of place. The worst part was the ending. He totally leaves you hanging, but sadly, I almost didn't care.
