Yes, it's far-fetched in places. But I found the writing strong enough to pull me past those parts into wanting to read on. I read the French translation, Silver Water, and didn't find many errors in that, although I note that some reviews refer to b ...more | |

I tried not to let my pet hate for books without chapters cloud my judgement of this book. My other big irritant was the endless lists. All the action takes place on the same day. A family is preparing to leave for the holiday of a lifetime in the Sta ...more |

I think I was in a minority of one in not liking the tagline of this book. For me, it gave me way more information than I wanted as it was gender-specific. And, note to self, when every man and his dog is raving about a book, it's not a guarantee tha ...more | |
