I’ll post you my copy over on loan if you’d like. It’s a definite ‘keeper’ in my library but I don’t mind if you want to borrow it for a while.

Well, I'm going to give him another go, because, well it wasn't as if it was like wading through treacle to read or anything. It was just when I got the end I wasn't sure what the point was. Does look like "Saturday" will be the next one as it's in the TBR pile, but I can usually trust your recommendations MissMac, so "Enduring Love" has gone on the ole' Bookmooch Wishlist!

I completely agree – I wish I’d just read the last page and not wasted 2 hours of my life on the other 100 and something pages!

You want to try 'Enduring Love' - it has some of the most beautiful prose of any contemporary author I've read in it. The first chapter left me breathless. MissMacs last blog post..Oh, I do like to be beside the sea side...
