Either Theowhite read the actual book or he's married to the author. LOL
It was lousy. My review will certainly agree with yours, read it if you have time, I tried to make it funny.
I think it's actually the worst I"ve read in a very long time. The publicist who sent it knew I liked literary fiction and somehow that's what he thought this was.
Take care!

Just wanted to compliment you on your honest and on-point review of The Season of Second Chances. I'm finishing it and it's been a struggle. I've never seen such a string of fortuitous coincidences in a novel that wasn't a chapter book!
And seriously, Teddy? What the heck? He sounds like a human golden retriever.
Of course, I'll water my opinions down a tiny bit for my review, but loved that yours was so refreshingly real.
I think I will suggest that a Restoration Hardware catalog be included with each purchase, and page numbers "literally" added, LOL.
