So it's predictable. And Hallmark-y. But it's an easy read and allowed for much discussion. We used some of the questions on LitLovers to open the discussion and went from there.

The majority of our book club members didn't finish the book because they didn't really like it. Others really liked it and I only liked it. Because of the mixed reviews, I went with the average when rating the book.

The characters were sufficiently developed, as was the plot. I wouldn't go so far to say that the story is a beautiful one, but it is certainly a pleasant one. The big problem I have with this book (and others like it) are that it is written almost as a screenplay (e.g. She turned and put the coffee mug down...). If you can get over that and are looking for a story that will entertain and hold your attention, this book is a good choice for your club.
