Thanks Alisha-I will start looking for it :)

I am thinking Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult... Is that a book you guys have done or author that is allowed...?

Ashley I will get my selection to you asap. Just finished Tartar...do we know what the March book is yet?

Carol- It was quickly explained that a very old gentleman snuck in the house somehow and placed the book in her room...
I did enjoy the setting a lot-made me miss Washington.

Optimists are a good thing-balances out the pessimists. ;)

I definitely found the long lost diary aspect interesting although the names being different was really hard to stay with at the end. It just seemed like a forced mystery...After reading this I am very much interested in reading Years of Grace which was mentioned. Maybe after reading that book this one will have more depth.

I enjoyed it as a light read, I would give it a 3. It didn't really make me do any deep thinking. The fact that the names were different in the diary was confusing and how the diary even ended up in the room at all was weird. It did make me a bit homesick for Washington though. My favorite character was probably the Aunt because of how quirky she was. I also loved the relationship the Aunt and Evelyn shared. It sounded like a friendship I would love to have in my old age.
