I rarely read a book a second time, but I had read this years ago, then loaned it to my Mom. It took her several years to get to it, and she just returned it recently. I remembered liking the story, so I read it again. Bits and pieces of the story was familiar but I didn't remember it enough to ruin it the second time around.

I would not call it "heartwarming" as stated on the cover (New York Times), but the characters are well-developed and I felt like I knew them personally and I cared about what happened in their "lives."

Highly recommend if you like this kind of story!
