This is a very romantic book. Some parts of it were so magical and I just devoured those chapters!
It was refreshing to read a love story that was fractured, this allowed me to enjoy snapshots of the different times in the love story. I remember watching the movie, and you know how watching a movie of a book is - it never quites lives up to the book. But in this case, I think I enjoyed the movie better. I was travelling through Central America at the time of reading this book, this was in 2008, and I remember having a discussion with a girlfriend who was also reading the book. We both felt that at some points of the book, it sort of dragged on and felt a little dry - though I wouldn't call it boring. I never once felt like abandoning the book but I felt it still had that feeling of 'it just drags on'.
All in all, a beautiful read and would recommend! This is a snuggle up and read by the fire kind of book.
