review 1: There is a disconnect between the writer's unshaken love and determination to keep her marriage together and at the same time her need to focus on herself, her feelings, her wants, her writing, her horse, her dad and her Italy and etc. Her focus on herself is unsettling and too much. I think a big factor that helped her husband come back to his family was the illness of his sister and seeing another family close to his heart fall apart, I think that realization and reflection helped him get out of his crisis
review 2: I honestly can't understand why this book was published when all her other self-proclaimed "amazing" novels were rejected by publishers. Unless, of course, they weren't amazing at all. There's nothing special about this book excluding the authors
... moresense of self-importance. I couldn't make myself finish the book, but made it near half way, because I was bored. I was astounded at the ordinariness of the situation. Life didn't turn out like you dreamed in college? What a shocker. You and just about everyone else in the world. Is that why it was published? The publishers thought it might resonate with us ordinary beings of the world? Well, try again. less

Couldn't even finish it... To much to handle. Thought she'd turn a corner but never did.
