Another great one by Laura Dave. I can see why some people wouldn't like it though because it's kind of cerebral.

An okay buffer book. I didn’t like the incompleteness of some of the storyline.

This book was characteristically a light drama that is great for winter break reading. Dave is great with story. She gives you a full character in Nora. Sam the brother I feel was a character that remained distant through the book. She brings in several characters but some stay as distant as Sam. She leaves us with questions about the father. But I think that was the intention. Nora is a character that I would like to have as a friend. Her character is generous but guarded. She gives, but not quickly. She keeps you following her through the story.
