PROBLEM: Laurie Colwin's best ... I've read it half a dozen times . I am a huge fan of Laurie Colwin's writing, so I am baffled by the reviewers who didn't enjoy this book as much as I did.  To me, her writing is sophisticated yet very comfortable.  I can identify most with the main character in this particular book of hers as I also married a bit later in life and am trying to have a child despite being a little long in the tooth.  The longings Jane Louise has for the domestic bliss that other people in her life seem to have so easily are all too familiar.  This book will not hit you over the head with a message, and it does meander ... which is just like life for most of us.  And I for one sometimes enjoy a book that doesn't leave me with a headache.  Reading is so much like eating - balancing what's good for you with satisfying cravings for those things that aren't - and for me, Laurie Colwin's books are like hot tea with milk and sugar on a cold afternoon.  Grown up, but sweet and comforting - they always hit the spot.  And I still find myself in disbelief that there will be no more books by this great writer

SOLUTION: POS

PROBLEM: Not even for the airplane . If you enjoy a good, tightly plotted thriller -- read something else. This flabby, clunky and completely unbelievable story labors to its silly ending wheezing and gasping like an overweight commuter trying to catch the 8:45.    All of the characters are two dimensional and if you don't figure out the ending hundreds of pages before it arrives you are unconscious.

SOLUTION: NEG

PROBLEM: Soporific and Overly Wordy. . Reads like a law textbook. Author often uses three sentences where one would do. Much ink is wasted telling the reader "we won't go into that here, but Chapter "X" deals exclusively with that." Concepts are understandable for those with an accounting background, but definitely would not recommend to someone without a solid grasp of accounting fundamentals. Author should have hired a writer to help him smooth out his writing style. Not recommended

SOLUTION:
NEG
