This is a nice way to leave things – rather than with, say, a funeral, which might have altered the overall tone.

She wants success and he craves fame and adulation. She has authored a few books and works as an investigative reporter for a popular New York tabloid and he's a guy with various talents who never reached the limelight. If she can write a book about their supposed friendship and hit all of the right notes each might finally achieve their goal. Well, she wrote the book but it just isn't any good. The best I can say is that it's mercifully short.

A crashing bore. First, I don't care overmuch about gourmet cooking, so all the food talk was excessive, and, second, being a vegetarian, I heartedly disagreed with many of Edward's elitist foodie commands, "must-haves" such as lard in one's pie crust. Asides from being pretentious and exclusionary, the foodie talk was more often than not unlinked to the "story."

Sex and the City star Cynthia Nixon begins HUNGER STRIKE in bid to trigger Israel-Hamas ceasefire: Is mom to two Jewish kids with her ex-husband Katherine Ryan says she turned down I'm A Celebrity because she is 'against glorifying dangerous people like Nigel Farage' for entertainment I didn't like any of the characters. I occasionally admired the female mc's perseverance and self-growth, and I empathized with her loneliness, but, overall, no, I didn't relate to her personality, her drive for her career, her love of the city, etc. The mc was unsympathetic, and although I didn't like her (ex) husband either, I was unimpressed with her constant negative descriptions of him (especially since he himself had no actually voice in the book), no matter how true they may be. Vincent s descriptions of food, written with the sumptuous detail of a restaurant review, are something to savor, as are her recollections of Edward himself and the way he dedicated himself to living after having lost the love of his life. Delightfully combining the warmheartedness of Tuesdays with Morrie with the sensual splendor of Julie and Julia, this is a memoir to treasure.
