Oh my gosh, this book! I LOVE IT! I'm totally into it and can't think of anything except to finish it. 552 pages of sheer pleasure. Well, 500 pages. It took me the first fifty to get into it and now I can't stand to stop reading for one minute. The forgotten Garden, by Kate Morton. Less than a hundred pages to go. Apparently, this is the second book and there is a third. LOVE. IT!
Here's the new word that I've captured in the book:
per·spi·ca·cious/ˌpərspiˈkāSHəs/ Adjective: Having a ready insight into and understanding of things.
Other than the book, the only thing on my mind this morning is Kelly. She's having her surgery today. Deep sigh. Kelly, Kelly, Kelly. The book is a welcomed escape today. Enough said.
Good decisions come from experience, and experience comes from bad decisions.
Oh Kelly. I do pray all goes ok. It worries me she would choose elective surgery after her heart scare not so long ago. :( Lots of prayers being sent your way too! And the book.... sounds interesting. I think I will check out the trilogy soon.

I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! Also, read The Thirteenth Tale, it also takes time, but well worth it.

Loved the book and it also took me awhile to get a hold of it. I understand your concern over Kelly's choice but I would love smaller, perkier sisters! But I am "old" so they would be for comfort more that exposure. I also am not going to do unnecessary surgery after 5 major surgeries. love.
