I really enjoyed reading Barbara Kingsolver's Poisonwood Bible, and was excited to read another one of her books, albeit several years later!!! I wasn't disappointed. I couldn't put this book down. I was attracted by the environmental theme initially but ended up being swept along wanting to find out what happened to the characters and their relationships. I've borrowed another one of her books from a friend but need to wait until I have a half term to get it read. A real shame that having a full time job equals having to put reading for pleasure on the back burner... I'm lucky if I get to read a few pages per week.
