This novel will appeal - especially at the holiday season - to many readers, certainly to those with literary, critical tastes as well as to those who just like a good read. Written with great insight into the human condition, the love interest is especially intelligent, subtle and certainly 'unusual'. Lively's analytically amused and astringent view of her fellow creatures is a must.
