Best book I’ve read in a long time! Quirky characters, good writing, found family, twists and turns, heart-warming ending. It took the author 7 years to write because she researched multiple topics that are included in the book: theater,…

An interesting read with complex characters and a good story. Made me want to smash a plate!

Where to begin. I'm not a fan of this book. The story line was interesting but wondered at the treatment of items stolen during the holocaust. I found the concept of destroying looted belongings very disturbing. I understand what the…

Just read this book for the second time, having enjoyed it about 10 years ago and decided to read it at the same time as a friend to whom I had suggested it. However, 10 years ago, I had never lived in the Pacific Northwest. It was such…

I’m not sure why I finished this book because it was kind of simple and stupid. That Wanda would be lavished, for no reason I could see, with so much didn’t make sense. And smashing beautiful pieces of art was incomprehensible. To make…

Love this story. My #1 fiction I read last year. Too many twists & turns I don't want to give anything away. This was a GREAT audio book too!

I definitely recommend this book. I love how the author weaves the individual stories together into a pleasantly surprising conclusion.

Her writing reminds me of Anne Tyler. My take away is that life is messy and that through the broken pieces melding together to make an imperfect (yet) whole being contentment can be found.

I quite liked this book. THough at times the plot was somewhat predictable and occasionally too seamless for real life, the characters were lovably flawed and funny. I laughed out loud several times, and I felt a real connection to the…

I wasn't too sure about this book at first, but the more I read the more I started to enjoy it. As I got towards the end, I couldn't put it down! I loved the idea that these broken women could come together and make a surrogate family. A…

I didn't really find the characters all that compelling. It wasn't terrible, I just thought it was fairly mediocre.

A beautiful example of the importance of human relationships - all types.
