I absolutely loved this novel.  There were times I felt it was a little too mushy but overall it was well done.  I loved the dialogue.  I felt it helped define the characters personalities.  Though at times I felt the characters were leaving their original personality traits it's to be expected.  We all change over time...we grow, we develop, we mature.  I loved how Margaret and John end up so intertwined.  It only seems to happen in the best of marriages.  I enjoyed the struggle with Mrs. Thornton....of course it's going to be there.  She doted on her son and it's hard to let go of your children when they get married.  The honeymoon in Paris was lovely.  I liked how they enjoyed the art, cafes, architecture, construction, and memories of Margaret's from childhood and friends.  The fact that they met up with Frederick and his wife was great.  I would have loved to have been their children.  I'll read this one again.
