Helpful Score: 3

From reading this book I learned about an amazing cat; what small town life is like in Iowa; (think straight roads and tall corn) the inner workings of a library; life, love and loss.

My favorite quote from the book was found near the final page:

"Find your place. Be happy with what you have. Treat everyone well. Live a good life. It isn't about material thinks; it's about love. And you can never anticipate love."

That may sound like a sweet little saying, but really when it all boils down -- it's a great philosophy. I only gave the book three stars. That's my rating for a good solid book, and that's what this is to me. It didn't change the way I looked at the world. It did educate me about what life was like in a world different than my own, and reminded me again to get back to basics with my life. Shoot, come to think of it, I'm going to have to change me rating to 4 stars. :-)
