Sarah Waters is brilliant. <br /><br />Pamela and Gloria, yes, I do enjoy books that match my surroundings, but now that I’m tiring of winter maybe I should try a summery book.<br /><br />ACIL, the social commentary was inferred, but I suspect it was intentional since the author chose characters who represented different socioeconomic classes: the well educated social minded lawyer; the college dropout who fell on hard times, and her soldier husband who witnessed the horrors of war.<br /><br />Amanda and Rose, thanks for your warm wishes.<br /><br />Joseph, thank you and welcome to my blog!<br /><br />Elizabeth, I was ambivalent about this book at first, but I’m glad I read to the end. I’d love to hear your reaction.<br /><br />Barrie, thanks for hosting! It has been interesting hearing your reaction to this book in our emails.<br /><br />Cynthia, thanks! This was the first book that I’ve read by this author.<br /><br />Troutbirder, I hope it’s not too rough of a transition.<br /><br />Cloudbuster and Jenn, thanks! I enjoyed your reviews too. I’d love to hear your reactions<br />Sarah Laurencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00423008641739156182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259325291907281485.post-27193811598464328722015-02-09T17:47:39.809-05:002015-02-09T17:47:39.809-05:00Your photos really enhance your wonderful review. ...Your photos really enhance your wonderful review.

I always always used to finish any book I started. These days I find myself cheerily setting aside a book which isn't speaking to me. For a while I felt uncomfortable with not seeing something through. Now I think that's ok. But as life foreshortens, how to balance new experiences with good experience? Go with your gut I suppose. It's on my list.

Although we have no snow here in Budapest, the weather is bitingly cold so a good book to read in the warmth of home is definitely a winner at the moment.<br /><br />This seems like a good time to thank you for recommending Sarah Walters. We have now read more than one of her books and she does not disappoint.Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.com
