Myf, I just finished it yesterday! Isn't that funny--we were reading it at the same time.

I loved this book, loved the way O'Nan treated Manny--with respect and tenderness, but no sentimentality. I think that's a tough trick to pull off without getting sanctimonious about the character's "salt of the earth" attributes.

I think this little book will stay with me for a long time ...

Thank you!!!
