I hate to say it, but this book was the greatest snooze-fest I have ever suffered through. The story line itself was enough to hold my attention. But it was was was waaaaay too much thinking, rethinking, overthinking, deep thoughts. The longer I read the more I wondered why such a potentially good story was being annihilated. Marianne was the most roomy, gloomy, pessimist possible. Jack on the other hand was so carefree, happy and self assured guy, until of course he crossed paths with Marianne. These brief interactions seem ridiculous as a foundation for any type of love connection. Then all of that deep thinking, rethinking, over thinking should have wrought about a lot of headaches and depression, but not love. I did feel sorry for Marianne feeling like less than in her late mother's shadow. The having her father confirm that she lacked what her mother had, and encouraged her to be realistic about who and what she was. So glad I'm done! Whew!
