I thought it would be hard to get into, but it caught my interest fairly quickly.<br /><br />Jenny: I fell in love with her family and their daily lives. It's very episodic in that way.<br /><br />Hafsah: I hope your sister enjoys it as much I did!<br /><br />Natalie: Aww, thanks. Since I work in the library, people are always looking for readalikes. I hope you do get a chance to read the book!<br /><br />Small Review: Me neither.
