I started reading this book with my mom, we read it every so often. Finally I just got sick and tired of reading "every so often" so I told her I would read it on my own. I started reading it this Thanksgiving and finished the next day. All of my family was having a great time and asked me if I wanted to join them, I was too busy reading my book. You just can't stop reading when there is so much suspence about the Galworthy's. I was the best book I ever read!
