Title: 2 stars because I actually finished it
Review: This could have been a good book. It's a good idea, and I did enjoy the shifting points of view with each chapter. I *did* like Lisa's hobby of collecting out of date recipe cards and making them into faces. Some of the better faces made me laugh out loud.However, I felt like the email conversations went on entirely too long and after a while I felt like they were all the same. I also didn't care for how every email started "Dear Lisa/Grant." I know that's picky, but if this is meant to mimic how people communicate now through email it should have been a little more consistent with how people actually send emails and less like formal letters. Though, maybe that formal letter feeling is meant to invoke the idea of love letters they weren't sending each other. In any case, it felt whiny and sort of flat, and when I put it down I said "blech."
