Don`t you Hate it when you read the last sentence of the novel (any) of Irving. I always get sucked up in the story, so I have to say goodbye to the caracters you got to know so wel during reading.
Got them all but the newest, lookin` foreward!! ;))
Just finished the book. Excellent. I find myself thinking about the characters even when I'm not reading the book. They have become like long lost friends.
The only thing I would have changed about the book is the title. I would have preferred if Irving had titled it,
this is a brilliant book, although a lot of themes in Irving's books are repeated i dont care. The writing is so richly personal and honest. The last chapter honestly gave me goosebumps and as with cider house rules left me in a state of mixed emotions that i wish i had the ability to describe clearer. thanks
This book is absolutely riveting. I am 2/3 through it now, waking up during the night to read it, leaving the house in ruins...anything to keep reading. And what an absolute treat to be able to hear John Irving himself speak about the book while in the midst of reading it. I rec'd this book from Random House for my book club and ABSOLUTELY it will be our next read and I will tell the world about it. Thank you, John Irving - for writing a book that will stay with me for years.

I enjoyed this book. It was the "discovery" novel for me as to who John Irving is as a writer. Now I am looking forward to reading the other eleven!

"The Lost Nation of Ketchum."

Can't wait to read this! I can never get enough of Irving's writing.
I'm a HUGE John Irving fan after reading his flawless & timeless classic "A Prayer For Owen Meany".
If you're a fan of Irving's novels and you haven't read that one yet, run, don't walk, to the nearest book store and BUY IT! =)
Also, I highly recommend "The World According To Garp" and "The Cider House Rules".
