Love, love, loved this book. I thought it might be like the Jane Austen Book Club, which was okay, but what a fantastic read. Parts are laugh out loud funny and other parts make you cry, but a terrific, well-written book that I didn't want to end (even though I raced thru it). I love all the characters and want to write letters to them all and have them keep writing to me. I heartily recommend this book.
