Summary: an ok book
Review: I found this book to be very predictable,although entertaining. A very simple storyline that read very quickly. I must say, I too have been disappointed in Oprahs picks- she may want to educate people about the negativity in life, but she should stick to her talkshow regarding these subjects, and have more of a balance of education/entertainment books. Some suggestions: Divine Secrets of the Ya Ya Sisterhood/Rebecca Wells- Crazy In Alabama/Mark Childress- Angle of Repose/Wallace Stegner.

Summary: What was I thinking?!!!
Review: I should have known!!The book was predictable and could have been done in 100 pages. Suffice it to say that I'm never buying another book that Oprah recommends.

Summary: You can feel the main character's sense of betrayal
Review: I read this book in one day - it's an easy read but also you can't put it down once you start. Anita Shreve's words made me feel the emotions of the main character, Kathryn. I thought about this book for days and it's still on my mind.

Summary: Lightweight Predictable Plot - Don't Waste Your Time Reading
Review: I'm surprised that Oprah choose this book. I usually enjoy her selections, but this book was the exception. It was a one-scene plot line that was a total dud. I could predict almost every piece of the story before it unfolded. Boring, boring, boring with a dud of an ending.

Summary: Read it in one sitting
Review: I just finished reading this book by Anita Shreve, and really enjoyed it. In fact I read the whole thing in one sitting!! I would recommend it to anyone looking for a light read for a sunny weekend afternoon.

Summary: Gripping and compelling.
Review: This is the first time I've heard of this jewel of a writer, Anita Shreve, and, based on this novel, I plan to read more of her work.The novel drew me in from the first page and I barely put it down until two days later when I was drawn to the end. The writing is intelligent and beguiling, and I related so well to some passages, that I actually highlighted them, so closely did they touch a chord in my being. I look forward to many more intriguing works from Ms. Shreve!

Summary: It's a cozy read...
Review: I read the Pilot's wife in just a few hours. It is a fast, cozy read. I did want to mention that during the scenes in which Katheryn finds out about her husband's past, the book evoked a sadness for Katheryn and outrage at her husband's actions. It isn't often that I read a book that does that, and I give the credit to the author.

Summary: Interesting story, fast-paced, disappointing in parts
Review: I just finished reading Oprah's latest book pick and thought that it was a pretty good book. From the first page to the last page my interest was tightly held. I was a bit disappointed that the author did not go more into detail about Kathryn's relationship with Mattie; I definitely wanted to know more, especially after Kathryn found out about Jack's secret past. I question whether Kathryn does the right thing by not telling Mattie what she learns. The story does make a person think about how well do we know the people in our lives. By the way, Oprah's ultimate goal is to get people to read; she never claims that the books she chooses are the absolute very best ever written!

Summary: AN ENGROSSING PAGE TURNER
Review: Once again Oprah has picked a great book. I couldn't put it down once I picked it up. I found the plot gripping and it took a chilling look at how much we actually know the people we love.
