This is a very good review and I love that even though you don't really offer spoilers, you do an effective job explaining a LOT. EFFECTIVE. and this book is AFFECTIVE! I have been reading all these reviews and loving the insight and conundrums offered. I think my appreciation is increasing the longer away from it I am (and the more I read both positive and negative reviews.) Thank you. and personally, I don't think she knew what would happen but she DID suspect it... LOVE your ‘before I begin’. and how did I miss this review when I wrote my post (I’ll add a link?).

Wow... that ending? I can see it sitting with me for a good long while (and not sitting comfortably, mind you). Again, while Niffenegger's writing may have some flaws, the stories she tells are riveting and thought-provoking. Fantastic review, by the way! Ooh – just finished this and came back for your review.

I am going out and buying this book. What a riveting review, and I cannot wait to read this book despite the pile that sits screaming, "Read me first." A book review that conjures up such memories four weeks after reading it, is certainly one I want to investigate. Well done, Jennifer! Well that does it! I am going out and buying this book.

It's not really satisfying in most ways, but I can't really think of a "better" way to end it. I'm torn about Elspeth too and feel like that's what makes the book warrant a re-read. I had a hard time writing this review too, it wore me out this week as well! I felt the same way with the ending.
