I loved the romance with a touch of fantasy in this story. I loved the characters. I loved the premise. Basically I loved this book. But, and it's kind of a big but, once the romantic interest turned to romantic action, I got pretty weirded out. The concept of being the adult friend of a young child, even if you are imaginary, and then becoming sexually involved with that child when they are in their thirties is a little too pedophile-esque for my taste. Once the thought occurred, it distracted me from the rest of the book. I couldn't get past it, which is the only reason that took this 5 shot book to 4 shots. ( )

I really enjoyed this book. Book starts out with a lonely 8 year old girl and her imaginary friend, Michael. They meet again 23 years later. Premise is that two people are destined to be together. ( )

This was a quick reading, very sappy book. It screams "chick flick" to me and I wouldn't be surprised if this one becomes a film, as it follows a formulaic pattern of the never-ending barrage of this type of movie. While I did like the concept, I found that I wanted it to be more substantial as far as character depth and the plot. ( )

As long as you put your sense of belief onto a shelf before turning the first page of SUNDAYS AT TIFFANY'S, you'll be fine.

It's a fast-moving read, as all of Mr. Patterson's books are, a love story of sorts that includes an interesting yet weirdly strange plot device. I enjoyed the basic writing and even the tone of the story, but parts of it were just so unbelievable that, at the end, I closed the book with a feeling of "Huh?" more than "Wow."

Patterson's fans will undoubtedly like it, but I wish he'd stick to subjects he writes about best -- murder and mayhem. ( )

This book was so good! This is definetly a book I would recommend to girls. It's sweet and very romantic. After reading this book I just wanted to go and hug someone. Just because of this book I think that James Patterson is going to become one of my favorite authors. I can't wait to read more from him.

Michael was running as fast as he could, running down thickly congested streets toward New York Hospital -- Jane was dying there -- when suddenly a scene from the past came to him, a dizzying rush of overpowering memories that nearly knocked him out of his sneakers.

Sundays at Tiffany's

Book description
From CD Case: "Jane Margaux is a lonely little girl. Her mother, a powerful Broadway producer, makes time for her only once a week, for their Sunday trip to admire jewelry at Tiffany's. Jane has only one friend: a handsome, comforting, funny man named Michael. He's perfect. But only she can see him. Michael can't stay forever, though. On Jane's ninth birthday he leaves, promising her that she'll soon forget him.

Years later, in her thirties, Jane is just as alone as she was as a child. And despite her own success as a playwright, she is even more trapped by her overbearing mother. Then she meets someone--a handsome, comforting, funny man. He's perfect. His name is Michael . . .

This is a heartrending story that surpasses all expectations of why these people have been brought together. With the breathtaking momentum and gripping emotional twists that have made James Patterson a bestselling author all over the world, SUNDAYS AT TIFFANY’S takes an altogether fresh look at the timeless and transforming power of love. "

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 031601477X, Hardcover)

As a little girl, Jane has no one. Her mother, the powerful head of a Broadway theater company, has no time for her. She does have one friend-a handsome, comforting, funny man named Michael-but only she can see him.

Years later, Jane is in her thirties and just as alone as ever. Then she meets Michael again-as handsome, smart and perfect as she remembers him to be. But not even Michael knows the reason they've really been reunited.

SUNDAYS AT TIFFANY'S is a love story with an irresistible twist, a novel about the child inside all of us-and the boundary-crossing power of love.
