A nice chaser to this book is to treat yourself with an evening watching the new Hallmark Channel Sense & Sensibility.
If you enjoy Jane Austen's retellings, you can't go wrong with this book. I really like that the store focuses on Nora and Ennis. They are the POV characters in this version. Personally, for reasons unknown, I always enjoy a book set in Maine, and this book is no exception!
I listened to the audio version of this book and the readers are outstanding. If you like audiobooks, go ahead and get that version of this book! You won't be disappointed. I don't want to spoil this book for you, of course, can you really spoil a retelling? The major plot points are all there. In this book, there is a scene involving condoms and it is such a good scene. I won't forget it, and frankly, I forget so much of what I read! (like character names).
For me, this was a 5-star book. The characters are well written, Nikki Payne really puts them through the wringer and I really thought all hope was lost!
Less than a week until our Illinois Primary! Here is a sunset photo from Monday's canvassing. The time change means it wasn't pitch black when I got done at seven p.m.
