Mary Gallant krehbiel answers “Is it a good book?”

Zakaria Imani asked this question about The Matchmaker:

Is it a good book?

Mary Gallant krehbiel No, not really. The message for me was: Current marriage not perfect so hook up with your one armed old boyfriend who returns home. What an awful exam…moreNo, not really. The message for me was: Current marriage not perfect so hook up with your one armed old boyfriend who returns home. What an awful example for her daughter, who in the end of this story (of course) accepts and forgives because the old boyfriend is her biological father. She won't go to the doctor because she thinks she's "love sick"? Really? I also cried at the end, but it's because I finished the book instead of returning it to the library after the 1st couple of chapters. (less)
