What a lovely read. I have purposely avoided watching this movie all these years until I had read the book and finally I have. It was a lot less depressing than I thought it would be, but at the same time very real. Holly's pain at losing her husband is very thoughtfully portrayed, and while there is no typical happily-ever-after, the book leaves you with a very district feeling of hope that even after great loss, joy competent be found in the most surprising of places.

Another movie inspired read. This one didn't feel like it mirrored the movie quite as close as I would have expected, but it's also been a long time since I watched the movie. This probably worked to the book's benefit. It's a good read with a good premise. Unfortunately, I was disappointed in a lackluster ending that frustrated me after the reading investment I had put in.
