I read this book so many years ago (at least 10) that the details are now fuzzy, but I remember enjoying it. It was a story that stuck with me for a really long time. I recommended it to my mother and sister as well.

I hadn’t known of this book, so I was glad to read your review. Even if it’s slow in parts, the premise grabs me. Thanks for the review!

I thought it was “somewhat good”. But, I also thought it moved rather slowly, and the title, Waiting, aptly describes the book…I kept waiting for something to happen. I thought it was written well, but it just seemed slow in some parts. I thought it was kind of a strange story, not my usual reading taste. I can’t comment more specifically since I read the book probably over five years ago.
