Polly after meeting with Barbara - Sometimes our minds protect us, but not enough. You walk along with this pain in your head, thinking about things you know, the things you've discovered, the things you've lost, and all those things that run around and around in your mind, like a stone in your shoe. And then everyday life saves you. Weather talk - maybe snow, maybe rain. You go to the laundromat and a neighbor ask if you have detergent. Life happens.
Anna Quindlen draws you in with her writing and her characters. You are along for Polly's search and solutions to a life mystery. Twists and turns and surprises amidst ordinary life. Enjoy the journey.


Looking for a good book. Thank you for this review. Hope you are having a good summer Joanne!
ReplyDeleteI like Anna Quindlen, though I haven't read this one by her. And friendships can absolutely change lives, so relate to that. Thank heavens for friends!
