Comments on: Goldengrove – Book Review http://www.caribousmom.com/2009/10/12/goldengrove-book-review/ reading a good book with a furchild by my side Sat, 11 Feb 2012 17:14:23 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Caribousmom http://www.caribousmom.com/2009/10/12/goldengrove-book-review/comment-page-1/#comment-10506 Caribousmom Mon, 19 Oct 2009 00:57:03 +0000 http://www.caribousmom.com/?p=5329#comment-10506 Molly: I think (knowing your reading preferences!) that you'd like Prose. I will look forward to reading your thoughts on the book one of these days! Melanie: Glad you also liked the book - I will look forward to your thoughts on A Changed Man! Kathy: She is writer worth reading! April: I also really like the cover (and I have to admit, it was what first drew me to the book!) Lisa: *nods* The ending just lifted us away from the story, didn't it? Dawn: Yes, Nico's voice is compelling - I felt very connected to her struggles. Staci: Thanks! Trish: Thank you...my pleasure :) I would love to ask Prose about her decision to write the ending as she did. After I wrote the review, I read some of the other reviews, and it looks like I was not the only reader who questioned the ending. Kailana: I will definitely look forward to your review. Chad: Why thank you very much! I hope you'll get a chance to read the book soon! Tracie: I love enabling other readers *laughs* Jenners: I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your dad...this book definitely deals with loss...it can be raw at times...I hope the book will help you. Diane: Nice to hear you share my sentiments! It was a good read! Molly: I think (knowing your reading preferences!) that you’d like Prose.

Thanks for being on this tour and writing such a great review (as always). I think it would be interesting to see why Prose felt compelled to do an epilogue...

That Prose writes in Nico's voice must make it very intense and raw at times. GOLDENGROVE seems like an engrossing read. That Prose writes in Nico’s voice must make it very intense and raw at times.
