I also broke another rule: IF the author wanted me to read the ending first, she would have put it in the middle of the book. I couldn't put the book down and finally after chapter 37, I read the last chapter, then the 2nd to the last, then the 3rd to the last. I've never read a book backwards before but I couldn't wait. I'm sure my being Japanese has nothing to do with reading the book backwards. Thank you for such a lovely, well-written story. It's our book club selection for November here in Sacramento. I'm waiting for your next book. frances kakugawa www.francesk.org I broke my cardinal rule of not going to the ending before the story was over.
