Irene Talló irenetallo — ** spoiler alert ** It's a so-so kind of book. The story is not what I expected it to be and I don't know if that's a good thing. I hate the ending. I read it because first of all, it is PC's book. Secondly, I got intrigued by the summary-the soul mate thingy. Many parts of the book were boring and nonsensical(?) (dunno if that's the right term to use). The story is the only thing I like in the book. I really like the first half of the book especially the first few pages. I started to get bored in the second part, the 'Winter and Spring'. But some parts are still okay, what I mean is it is not as good as the first part. Also the story in second half is a bit fast. I hate the ending. In my opinion it would be a lot better if Brida end up with her Soul mate, I mean the Magus. She even chose him but the Magus let her go. I really hate that. I really got disappointed in that part. For me that's the worst.

Nina Castellano _ina_ast — No wonder they made this book into a movie shortly after it was published, and with Laurence Olivier and Dustin Hoffman no less! I started reading the book knowing nothing about the plot, so it was a thriller for me all the way to the last page. I have since learned that there have been many film quotes that came out of this book/movie... "is it safe?" Anyway, this was a great thriller written before all of the techno thrillers came along (1974), and also a surprisingly a relatively short story (310 pages.) I can see why this book has also become a classic in its time... it is well worth reading if you have not read it before or have seen the movie.

Amper Philip _mpermelo — Wow! What a story!!!! You HAVE to read this one for sure!! From back cover: "For Annie Barnes, going home to Middle River means dealing with truths long hidden, some of which she buried there herself. But it is a journey she knows she must take if she is to put to rest, once and for all, her misgivings about her mother's recent death. To an outsider, Middle River is a picture-perfect New Hampshire town. But Annie grew up there, and she knows all its secrets-as did her idol Grace Metalious, author of the infamous novel Peyton Place, which laid a small town's sexual secrets bare for all the world to see. Though Grace actually lived in a nearby town, the residents of Middle River have always believed she used them as the model for her revoluntionary novel, and some even insist Annie's grandmother was the model for one of Grace's most scandalous characters. With these rumors and whispers about Peyton Place haunting her childhood, Annie came to identify so closely with the author that it was Grace and her bold rebellion against 1950s conformity that inspired Annie to get out of Middle River and make a life for herself in Washington, D.C. It's been a good life, too. Annie Barnes is now a bestselling author, reaching that level with only her third novel. Success has given her a confidence she never had as a young girl in Middle River-and it has given the residents of that town something new to worry about. When they hear Annie is returning for a lengthy visit, everyone, including Annie's two sisters, believes she's coming home to write about them. Though amused by the discomfort she causes in Middle River, Annie has no intention of writing a novel about the town or its people. It is her mother's death-under circumstances that don't quite add up-that has brought her back, and soon her probing questions start to make people nervous. When she discovers evidence of dangerous pollutants emanating from the local paper mill-poisons that she comes to believe contributed to her mother's fatal illness-Annie finds herself at odds with most of the town's inhabitants, including her sisters, both of whom are seemingly unfazed by the incriminating evidence she uncovers. Because the mill is the town's main employer, everyone is afraid of what might happen if Annie digs deeper, and their fears soon start to turn ugly. For Annie, though, there is no turning back, as passion and rage propel her forward in a determined quest. Coming face-to-face with decades of secrets and lies, she knows she must find the strength to move beyond the legacy of Grace Metalious, defying her past to heal the wounds of the town and her own family."
