i did'nt quite like the beginning and the book isnt phrased correctly-but nevertheless a very happy ending.

I didn't even get past the first two chapters. I felt the writing was too "sophisticated" for me and therefore bore me. But maybe you'll look past that and enjoy it.

I actually didn't really like this book, it was all over the place. The development of characters and their relationships was hasty and sudden. Worth reading if you're in for happy endings.
