It was a slow starter but rapidly became one of those books that kept me reading at night and was on my mind when I got up. First time I’ve read anything by Dugoni. I enjoyed his style of writing.

Loved this book! So many feels and Barbara Kingsolver never disappoints.

Love this book. Where have you been all my life, Hilma Wolitzer? I have a new favorite author!

I first read Today a Woman Went Mad in the Supermarket and was hooked.

Hilma’s protagonists are wry, humorous, poignant and right on the money. This book is no exception.

I highly recommend this book and the supermarket one!

OMG - I have a new favorite author and I can’t believe her books were published over 30 years ago. She has an amazing ‘voice’ and her observations and intrusive thoughts are often poignant and humorous but always fresh and spot on.

This is my second book by Hilma- the first was Today a Woman went Mad in the Supermarket - and I was hooked.

I highly recommend this author.

I can’t get into this book.

Excellent read. A fascinating journey.

It was awesome. Very well-written and very very sad.

I didn’t love it but obviously I’m in the minority as it was one of four finalists for our library’s book contest. I think I wanted more on the fact that she was a diver and repaired ships and boats. I was reading it for a book club but am not sure I would read other books by this author.

I finished this book quite a while ago. I found it absolutely fascinating. Well-written read on a sad but true part of American history.

It was very insightful.

I enjoyed it. I wasn’t familiar with Baldacci at all and wasn’t planning to read anymore by him until I was told his genre is generally suspense and pretty good. So I might give him a try.

Not bad. Protagonist is annoying although humorous at times.

Interesting perspective of a year in prison.
