This is my first "read" book of 2012 and I loved it! I read it
in just a few sittings and have sat up for hours this morning finishing it as I just
wanted to know more.
The story itself is split into two parts and centres around
the life of our narator, Elly and her family.
Some descriptions in the book I laughed at, and there were
some events that made me cry. I really liked Elly and in some ways she reminded
me of myself as all through her life she felt an outsider. I was also
particularly touched by an event in her life that was a bit close to home for
me and gave me an idea of what could have been should the life of another not
chosen a different path.
Beautifully written and easy to read, I would recommend this
book as I enjoyed it so much. Thank you Santa for bringing me this book! An excellent start to the 2012 reading year!
