The Expat Book Club

TWO DAYS? Gosh. That book was like a two month project for me. But I don't claim to be a bookworm (you are a bookworm, in the nicest of ways!).

This book is wonderful, I agree. I was so sad when it ended because I loved being a part of their world. I could have gone on reading it forever with no ending, and I would have been fine with that. Maybe you will pass it on to be loved by another? You're already that copy's third reader!

I've read it three times. My book club hated it (it was too long!!). Do pass it on, let someone else experience Irving's magic (but do not, I repeat do not, ever see the movie they tried to make of it). Hope to see you this summer! Jan Novak
