That's funny about your MIL & DIL. It's good to know, in case someone wants to ask me out for a Coke. This book was OK. I'd give it three stars. There were some unlikely coincidences that really hindered the story. Overall, the writing was pretty good though. I'd be interested in reading another of her books to compare. LOL Lyn!

It's disgusting and is possibly the vilest tasting substance on earth. I'm sure that's the memory this author wanted to summon in her readers, but it is inappropriate to call for bile before puke. How gross am I?! Moving on. I have to laugh about the Coke thing! My dad-in-law used to invite my mom-in-law out for "Cokes" when they were dating. My MIL actually hated Coke, but drank it for years. She didn't understand that he only wanted to take her out for a soda and wasn't requiring her to actually order Coca-cola! Too funny! As far as this book is concerned, it sounds a little far fetched to me. Is the author pushing connections and coincidences a little too far, or does it work?
