Back in 2007 I had the opportunity to review a book by James Patterson. It was one of the books in the Maximum Ride series for the tween set.
And I loved it.
I love Patterson’s books for kids like my friends love Patterson’s Alex Cross or Women’s Murder Club series.
I haven’t gotten into any of his other books.
I recently read one, now out in paperback, that I thoroughly enjoyed.
Patterson wrote this book with Gabrielle Charbonnet.
According to the Hatchette Book Group site:
“Sundays at Tiffany’s is a heart-wrenching love story that surpasses all expectations of why these people have been brought together. With the breathtaking momentum and gripping emotional twists that have made James Patterson a bestseller all over the world, Sundays at Tiffany’s takes an altogether fresh look at the timeless and transforming power of love.”
Many of us have navigated the world of adolescence with the help of an imaginary friend. (My friends were the characters of the books I read). The main character, Jane, is no different. Her friend Michael is an important staple in her lonely childhood. But while imaginary friends eventually fade out and are forgotten, Jane’s life takes an unexpected turn in her thirties that brings Michael back into her life in an unexpected way.
While the idea of an imaginary friend becoming real is impossible for many of us to believe, these characters are so wonderfully crafted that I found myself wishing, hoping that it COULD happen. I found myself rooting for Jane, and for Michael.
Remember the movie, City of Angels, with Meg Ryan and Nicholas Cage? I was reminded of this movie when I was reading Sundays at Tiffany’s.
Sundays at Tiffany’s is a heartwarming book, guaranteed to remind us of the power of love, and the importance of friendship.
