A dystopian novel that was quite interesting and a solid story. Not a super-exciting book and at times difficult to figure out who is who and where they fit into the timeline.

Sarah's writing voice comes out in her character's personalities. This was my first book, and based on their actions, I was able to determine a lot about them. So many things going on - main focus being to solve a murder with her best friend EIllie.

Beginning was a bit slow but gradually became more interesting. It was such a sweet, innocent love between the former student & former teacher. Initially I wondered if the relationship was platonic or one sided. I was happy to see that it was mutual. The connection and camaraderie they felt was genuine. Bittersweet ending though.

Not a quick read. It was a slower read where you savored each page. Fascinating that the author chose the genre of fiction even though it was a true story. Loved the way the author described the scenery in beautiful detail and described the food in Taiwan so detailed and enticing. I am a Foodie so I appreciated the many meals that were mentioned. The history and culture of Taiwan was told in a very interesting way. The friendship of the 2 women (main characters) was complex and fascinating.

Love the book!!!! And the twists!!!! Definitely a great read!!!

Delores Price has an unusual life with multiple ups and downs. She is an unloved fatty who hurts herself, a mental case who realizes (after many years) that she can love and be loved. This is not my favorite book of Lamb but is worth reading.

A nice story, although a little sad. Not as well written as some other authors I've read, but a pleasant read overall.

many books about institutionalization try to take a side on either institutionalization or deinstitutionalization - this book walks the line between both - emphasizing the major failures of both, because the reality is that both failed in catastrophic ways. finished this one on July 11th.

Doug is a funny dog who can't stop digging. He digs there, he digs here, he digs everywhere. This picture book will make young readers chuckle!

I thought I had the book figured out until the final twist at the end. A great mystery!
