Title: I say: "Read about what you know"
Review: Wow! I just came across the Saving Graces as I was desperately looking for a book that had substance yet was light enough for summer reading.Reading Gaffney's novel was pure pleasure. Her characters were so normal and at the same time I wanted to follow them. Why? They weren't fancy people living lives that we can only imagine. I recognize so many of my women friends and so many aspects of my own life.All this said, there is,in my opinion one prerequesite to meeting The Graces: one MUST have lived long enough,at least 35 to 40 years to really understand what they are made of.Definitely a book for a somewhat mature reader but just as simple as your life or mine and written by a powerful hand.
