I loved it!

I loved this book. I did not want to put it down nor did I want it to end.

Makes anyone think about life

I really enjoyed this book. I have passed it to others who also feel the same. I have read this book over a year ago now and I still remember the characters and their dilemmas. It is rare that I will read a book more than once, this book is one that I could easily pick up again. If you want a book that is easy to read, but offers more than a simple story, this could be what you are looking for.

SO much better than the movie

All I can say is the movie is a shameful representation of the book, and if you've seen it you should read the book just to do it justice. Well written and an easy read, I would recommend it.

Good plot, too much detail

The idea of this story grabbed me - the twin with Down's Syndrome being given away in secret - but the truth is one could have as much satisfaction reading the very beginning & the very end. The middle 80% is filled with details (Rosemary, all the camera details, affairs, Paul running away...) that are all just minor & boring details - yet they fill the book. Truthfully, I'm giving it 3 stars because I actually enjoyed reading it & could not wait to see what happens at the end & the writing is very good - but it's almost 2 1/2 stars because the only action in the book is in the beginning & the very end.
