Query: this book ended my reading slump!

I started this book on a snowbound day, just like Kim Edwards started the first chapter and I finished it in two days. I can't say I found it "gripping" , but it is the kind of enjoyable,flowing read that you look forward to sitting down with (for hours!)It's one that you really think about the characters and even though the Dr. is given most of the blame, you still are able to empathize with him. It's a good lesson of how lies and secrets can eat at one's soul. It's a story of love-but not at all sappy. I also thought she did a great job with a very positive portrayal of a Down's syndrome child. This story could appeal to many different types of readers, and although there may have been a little bit of dragging at times-I think that was neccesary to reflect the disinegration of the marriage etc. All in all, a very entertaining tale;full of happy and sad.
