But I Love You Anyway (Harvest American Writing)

Summary: Waste of time
Review: I found Lewis's book very ordinary in terms of its theme but still enjoyable. I liked her writing because it was simple and easy to understand. Her narrative is not one of those that require the reader to exert themselves to understand everything fully. It's a story of two sisters, a mother and her two children, her relationship with a mysterious guy, and her relationship with her ex-husband. It's funny at times and a good read.

Review: I loved this book. But, I've loved ALL Sara Lewis' books. She writes with heart and kindness and wit. Her characters are true and funny and real. Sure, they are experiencing a lot of the same kinds of problems you and I are, but reading about their lives sheds light on my own. Oh, and also I'm entertained!

It is a wonderful thing to be able to read a book about people who want to "get it right". People who aren't out to maim and mutilate each other. People who might have had a few bumps in the road of life but manage to pick themselves up, dust themselves off, and fall in love again, both with a new mate, as well as with the experience of being alive.

Summary: Entertainment . . . that's why I read!!
Review: I read to take a break, unwind, and relax. The title made me pick this book up. Having never read anything by Sara Lewis I had no expectations. Yes, it was an easy read. Easy because it was entertaining, fun and I fell very quickly into the lives of the characters. I, like Mimi, love music. Having this in common immediately bonded me to the story teller. I love how Sara Lewis told this story. It made me feel as if I were reading a letter and catching up with a dear friend I hadn't spoken with for a while. I am a loyal, faithful reader of authors who touch my heart with their talent . . . and gift. Thanks to Amazon I have the titles of Sara's other books. I look forward to reading them all. I will be adding Ms. Lewis to my list of authors I wait anxiously for news of a new release. Enjoy . . . I sure did!!

Review: This book was a day in the life of an average nobody with average problems, average kids, average ex-husband, and all of that trivial stuff that doesn't warrant being written about. My life is more interesting, and that's not saying much.
