If she spent all that time reading and writing, when did she have time to live? Also, the ending seemed a little to pat, which bothered me a little bit. I thought some of the aspects of the story were far fetched, but overall, it was an interesting read. I really enjoyed reading your take on this one.Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8282761092944595871.post-49727858770679642182012-03-07T08:04:48.780-06:002012-03-07T08:04:48.780-06:00Other reviews have mentioned Memento as well, whic...Other reviews have mentioned Memento as well, which I didn't get, so I figured I should avoid this book!rhapsodyinbookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07041412748239010264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8282761092944595871.post-90937302107521942202012-03-07T07:41:24.687-06:002012-03-07T07:41:24.687-06:00Definitely sounds like Memento, as well as 50 Firs...Definitely sounds like Memento, as well as 50 First Dates (though of course that's far more lighthearted and humorous).Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026099426503180472noreply@blogger.com
