i could not put it down.
the writing, the imagery, the story line, the characters.
i don't know if i was partial to it because
it takes place by water
and there are many references to small town living
and lighthouses
and ships and sails and fishing,
that made it feel like home to me...
but i do know that it drew me in
right from the very first sentence.

read it. you won't be disappointed.
(and...if you are, you probably shouldn't follow my advice any more
when it comes to books...i will lead you astray.)

and i just gasped cause i just realized
it's coming out as a movie!!!

and yay!!!! i have surpassed my
(somewhat measly) goal of books
to read in 2016!!!
Yay me!
(and if truth must be told,
then you should know that i have
read TWO more since this one...
but i am very behind on blogging.
it's summer, you know...i hope you
can cut me some slack...if anyone is
even reading...heeheehee)
