Maybe it will be my next read although I can't read 24 hours straight. Thanks for pushing it back to the top of the pile. I can’t believe I haven’t read this book yet.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, though would hesitate to call it a great book. It fit in the category of "good women's fiction" to me -- better-written and more substantial than chick-lit, but with some of the same core elements. I think you’re right on about the book.

I just stumbled upon your blog by accident. I agree with your thoughts about TGLaPPPS. The book is a quick read, but it has surprising depth. It'll stay with me for a long time. Meg Hey there!
