Kate Rockland Kate Rockland said: "I really like this book, in a way I haven't liked anything he's done since the 90's! I love time travel books, and it's very well done, with a thread of mystery woven through. Some of his books like Insomnia or Dome would lose me in their complexity,...more "

I loved this book! It had been awhile since I read a SK novel, but I can totally tell how she's grown as a writer. I find her non-Shopaholic books SO much more enjoyable, and this one had me staying up nights to finish.

“Sometimes I feel like relationships consist of telling your same life stories to different people until someone finally appreciates them.”

“Unhappiness slowly creeps up on you, like a shape-shifting monster waiting in the darkness of your hallway, his bulging eyes watching your every move. The breath on his slimy tongue makes the hairs on your neck stand up.”
Kate Rockland, Falling Is Like This

“I thought about the cast of The Wizard of Oz on the yellow brick road and wondered which character I was. Perhaps the Tin Man, in search of a red, pulsating heart. Or at least someone to give it to.”
