My library system has none of her books. Sometimes my library system makes me so mad.

This is so, so sadmaking because I loved her other books too. You’re not the first blogger to have this opinion, though, and I definitely trust you. However, I’ll still read the book because I can’t NOT read it. 🙂

In reply to Vasilly. Yeah, I had an inkling that I wasn't going to love Falling Together, but I hoped that I would prove to be mistaken. :/ Have you read Belong to Me also?

In reply to zibilee. I hope you do try Love Walked In. It looks like it's going to be a very generic chick-lit-y sort of book, but it really is an incredibly wonderful book of enduring wonderfulness. Promise.

In reply to Mumsy. YES. God. Yes. I agree with your assessment. What a whiny brat she was.

In reply to rhapsodyinbooks. Really? I didn't feel that way. What in particular was bothering you, cleverness-wise?

In reply to jenclair. Me tooooo! If an author's been amazing once, why can't they do it again?

Reading this review makes me want to reread Love Walks In. It’s too bad that this book was disappointing though I’m not surprised from several reviews I’ve read of it.

I have heard that this book was a little disappointing compared with her others, and since I haven’t read any of her work yet, I don’t think I will start with this one. It sounds like there was a lot here that was off kilter and that it was not the book you were hoping it to be, which is probably slightly maddening. I am glad for your candor and your very interesting analysis on this one though, and thank you for sharing your thoughts. I think you have finally convinced me to try some of her earlier works.
