I first read this book when I was a teen, and just re-read it for my book club, roughly 25 years later. I knew it was a great book, but I had forgotten just how wonderful it is. I had also completely forgotten that it was an epistolary novel. One more thing I had either forgotten or it possibly went right over my head when I read it the first time -- some of the sex is a little bit graphic. Not in a bad way, just in a "oh, I don't remember THAT" way.

I read this awhile back in college but re-read it before going to the Broadway play. The play was inspiring, moving, and extremely well done. The book brings me back to when I had time to read and could really soak up every character...every plot turn. I loved this book
