Excerpt:
...There is so much cleverness, so much emotion, so much charm packed in one book here, it was almost more than my little heart could take at times. Towards the end, I did have to pull my car over and sit and get myself under control. And just when you think things couldn't get any more perfect, in walk the REFERENCES. Special places around Chicago that really exist. Music (particularly punk). Classic literature. They were like little hidden nuggets of flavor. Now suddenly, I see why all of you out there had such trouble with Niffenegger's second novel "Her Fearful Symmetry" (which I liked alot but didn't love). Expectations, my word. It is probably all good that I didn't read this book first. Now my heart has been claimed...
