I couldn’t help myself! I often reread the beginning of a book when I finish one… and sometimes I just have to keep reading. This book was just as fresh to me the second time around – even though I knew what would happen. I could read it a third time but the TBR pile is growing taller!

I have to read this….I can’t believe Judi Clark has time to read a book for the second time.

Recently finished Cloud Atlas – absolutely floored, even better than Black Swan Green, simply can’t wait to get this one off the shelf. Rapidly turning into a die-hard fan. Sounds as if all expectations have been met. Hurrah!

MostlyFiction posted a previous, just as positive, review of this book at the end of June. Having just finished reading it for the second time, I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate than to post yet another review. Truly, this is a masterpiece as Roger says, and as close to perfect as a novel can get, as Betsey says. With the imminent release of Jonathan Franzen’s FREEDOM, I guess I wanted to wave the flag on this book one more time.
