A good book and good ending to the trilogy, but overall this was my least favorite of the three.

I can't really believe how long it took me to get through this book. I'm not sure any book in recent memory has taken me this long, which is interesting given it's actually written in very digestible form (as a series of short stories). I'm not sure anthologies are entirely "my thing", however; I prefer to really immerse myself in a longer novel than visit many different characters and worlds too briefly. That said, Eugenides' introduction was wonderful, and really set my mindset for reading the subsequent 600 pages. As with all anthologies, several of the stories really spoke to me, while others I only finished out of a sense of duty to Eudenides than any actual investment in the story itself. While "love" is the major listed connector of the anthology, these stories, (as most good love stories), seem to express more pain and anguish than anything else. And if we're being honest, isn't that what love mostly provokes, anyway?

Read this mainly on the banks of the reservoir in Nederland, CO... breath-taking once I got into it... and one of the final causes not to "believe" anymore. Very powerful characters when I read it; at the time I felt Greene was one of the greatest novelists. Later I read two other books of his (The Human Factor and End of the Affair) and they felt adolescent and melodramatic. I haven't re-read P&G for fear I'd feel the same way; on the other hand it may be more enduring and classic. It is an INCREDIBLE story of a hunted, haunted priest during the Mexican revolution -- amazing character development.
Original, well-written and interesting book. Terrific. Loved it. Recommend to everyone. Read this book!
I'm looking forward to reading this one....it looks interesting! Thanks, Goodreads! 3/08/11 - I finished this book last night. It was interesting and I enjoyed the relationships between Heather (one of my favorite names - I gave it to my daughter!) and Jeremy and between Jeremy and his friend, Tony. I usually read mysteries, but I like to be surprised by the perpetrator near the end of the story. Unfortunately, I figured out the puzzle well in advance of finishing this book. I still enjoyed reading it, though. I liked that Jeremy and Tony were so open about their Christian beliefs and offered prayer for one another as simply as saying hello to someone. That rang very true. And, having lost two of my brothers, I understood Heather's feelings about losing someone close to her. I would recommend reading this book, mainly if you're looking for a thoughtful, but fairly light story. Thanks, Liz!

First off, a great big THANK YOU to Ms. Neville for sending such a delightful package! And I eagerly awaiting her next so the teaser bookmark was the best! I'm going with a strong four for the first half of this book and a very tepid three for the last half. And let me just say that this is solely due to my beliefs about marriage and relationships, not necessarily a review of the author's writings. The first half starts off strong with a very sigh worthy hero in the Demon Marquess, Max St. Albans. He is absolutely unfit for polite society since he has operated outside of it for so long, and that makes him even better to me! The heroine is a generous yet selfish and immature creature, but she is still young and very babied by her father. Due to the death of her mother (definitely not a spoiler), she has an insatiable need to control everything and an extreme fear of things changing. As much as that got on my nerves, I understood it. I think anyone who ever believes they have everything under control is just tempting God to say "oh yeah?" Anyway, their courtship, if you can call it that, was great fun. Lots of fighting and making up **sigh**. I loved how he stalked her, probably sick I know, but there you have it. The coming together scene was really syrupy and slightly over the top for my tastes, but sweet nonetheless. I was surprised to see the marriage take place, and still have 100 pages left to read. What is left? Well, here's where I flounder a bit in my enjoyment of this story. Obviously, the author has to have a way for the heroine to find out about his clandestine activities with The Order so in proceeds a ridiculous attempt on the writer's behalf to put doubts and mistrust in the heroine's head without any reason. Seriously, the first chapter after their marriage is all about how perfect her life is, she never thought she could be his happy, blah blah blah. Then in the next chapter when the inevitable fight needs to happen, suddenly the heroine is thinking about that wall she keeps encountering and how she fears for the longevity of their marriage, but she keeps hoping he'll come clean...Really? When did she feel that? So you have the "I caught you" moment followed by ridiculous rants by the heroine about how she knew all along she couldn't trust him and how can he love her if he isn't spilling his every thought to her. And here is where my personal beliefs start coloring my view. I am a firm hater of the heroine who has to know everything...EVERYTHING...about the hero. I have been married for almost 15 years, and I like that my husband and I don't feel the need to share every little thing that pops into our heads. I feel extreme dislike for the woman who is so insecure that she has to know every detail about his life before her, where he was at 10:34 when she called and he didn't answer, what all of his friends are saying, etc. That implies distrust on her part, not his. And this is exactly what happened to Daphne. Then you have the makeup scene which was, again, very syrupy but nice. So overall, not a badly written book; it just had some things that went against my personal beliefs. Several cliched lines and lots of syrupy sweetness, but not a bad intro to a great series. I'm very much looking forward to Rohan's book. And I loved getting more insight into Drake's mind. I do believe his will be the best book of all.

جميل كخطوة أولى ثابتة نحو (علم النحو).. قرأت متن الآجرومية ثمّ قرأت شرح ابن عثيمين لها وسمعته على أشرطة كاسيت، ثمّ قدمته في دروس خاصّة لبعض المهتمات بالنحو قبل 4 أو 5سنوات.. هو الكتاب الذي يُنصح به للمبتدئين في النحو -بالمناسبة لا تتخيلوا أنّه سهل تماماً ومن الممكن تخطيه فهو مصنّف مهم في مجاله- لن أكتب عنه أكثر فالنحو علم بحت ينبغي على المهتمين به وطلّابه أن يراجعوا بأنفسهم كتبه الجديرة بالاطلاع.

A great read -- a mystery that ends and you really still wonder.....
hawaiian spirituality, clear and thorough explanation of tradtions, worldview, and practice, but i cant help but feel that its contemporarily influenced.
