Rating:  Summary: Just got worse and worse to the point of comedy Review: Lorna Landvik's novels are worth the money every time. But if you are an inveterate library user, then grab her titles there.Once again, in Landvik's characters, you can expect a generational ride, as the tale won't be over a single day or week or month, but years. And the characters will suffer through the things that life hands them, and find joy and friendship and sufficient humor to pull the reader along. I recommend reading anything Landvik writes. And as a southerner, it is fun to see the "woman story" from the point of view of ladies from the north, those with Scandihoovian roots. I like Landvik's story telling ways.
Rating:  Summary: Great Storyteller - Lorna Landvik Review: Although there are male characters in this book they stand on the edge. This is a well-balanced story sending the message that women don't need men to succeed but that we all need love and when we invest our heart in someone elses' life we might get hurt. I really enjoyed how this message was communicated to the reader. I salute Lorna Landvik in her realistic portrayal of women within the family!
