Excellent story of a man's rise from "poor white trash" and his experiences along the way. I like the way he is able to view his life - the terrible and the good - and make his choices. He doesn't abandon his past, but learns to accept it as part of who he is. He discovers that even his difficult childhood is worlds better than some he sees in his life as a reporter. I've recommended this book to many friends and family.

I'm a Sebold fan, but this book was strange. Good plot, good story, but I had a hard time getting into the characters. I was absorbed by it, but when I finished, it just left me a little unsatisfied.

A book that draws you into the lives of the two main characters. Decent people, but in a marriage that should never have been. Another good story from Tyler.

An amazing story - heart-rending, funny, sad, horrifying. You name it!

A true time-waster! Maybe only interesting to the middle-school male age group, and definitely not appropriate for them!

One of the best books I've read in a while. Fascinating characters and a good plot. This is the 2nd book I've read by this author, and I will be looking for more!

One of my favorites by Wolfe. If you saw the pathetic movie they made from it, ignore it. Read the book!

Yes, I'm an Irving fan, but you really should read this one! What a great story; hard to put it down even when you know you should. The movie was pretty good, too.

Tyler is quickly becoming one of my favorites. This is good story of differences and how people deal with them. A book of varied emotions, and well worth the time.

Great book, and a good movie from it. This was a very moving story, realistically told. I couldn't put it down.

A great "disaster" novel (love 'em!).

I am a Flagg fan from way back, and this one was a delight! The characters are her usual unusual mix, and the story is very good.
