          <body><![CDATA[&quot;Sigh!&quot;  I so wanted to LOVE this book, but alas, only liked it.  When a writer gives us a book like A PRAYER FOR OWEN MEANEY, it's impossible to ever again measure up to the standard he set.  On the whole, I did like this book.  There were just some things that irritated me.  Irving cover...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/56244340">more...</a>]]></body>

          <body><![CDATA[Thanks Kathy!  You're review was just right for those of us who are dying to get our hot little hands on this!  The &quot;touchingly sweet&quot; comment &quot;(but not overly)&quot; is something I've been saying about JH all along.  I don't know how he does it...how he manages to scare &amp; horrify and maintain that underpinning of pathos, all at the same time.  I can't think of another writer that manages to do this these days!]]></body>
