Give it another chance if you feel like it, it's worth it! <br /><br />BookQuoter - I haven't read them all either. I read Bel Canto in 2007 and have since been rationing her books so I don't run out.

But as much as I love it, I have to confess I have not read all of Patchett's books. I read one (Patron Saint of Liars) and didn't like it as much. But after this review, I might give this one a try.
