newswoman's review against another edition
from the introduction of the love interest onwards i felt a gradual decline in my enjoyment of the book as i am not a fan of how the romance is written at all. i really liked the beginning a lot but the the main character is very hard to like in my opinion, which gets worse and worse as the story progresses.

Though this book has a healthy dose of “things were better back in my day,” King kept me engaged from page 1. This book flies by. Fun read.
