review 1: I bought it while i was travelling . You know, we had a break to buying food and i saw it and i liked the name of book. And i read in just 4 hours! It was so real, funny and charming story. I don't know much about Indians, but from the rain, walnuts and other details were committed well.I think mother & daughter's relationship and the parallels in their lives had been discussed with carefully.I didnt even recognize when it finished, i suddenly found myself on the last page.
review 2: Disappointing read, especially for me because the author is from my hometown of St. Louis and the novel is set in the nearby Washington, Missouri area. McBride is trying for a magical realism vibe, which is all well and good, but she neglects to flesh out her characters and includ... morees too many different POVs for a short 300 page novel. As a result, Gretchen, Abby and most of all the mysterious man who appears after a storm lack any depth or nuance. The man who might or might not be Gretchen's long-last friend Sam comes off worst of all, speaking with New Age-y wisdom but nothing resembling a real human being. less
