Her mother, the powerful head of a Broadway theater company, has no time for her. She does have one friend-a handsome, comforting, funny man named Michael-but only she can see him. Years later, Jane is in her thirties and just as alone as ever. Then she meets Michael again-as handsome, smart and perfect as she remembers him to be. But not even Michael knows the reason they've really been reunited. SUNDAYS AT TIFFANY'S is a love story with an irresistible twist, a novel about the child inside all of us-and the boundary-crossing power of love. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - A quick delightful readI had pretty low expectations of this book based on previous reviews I had read. I was surprised at how quickly I was able to read this tale (under 3 hours), but I was glad that I did. It's a really cute story about an adult woman who runs into her childhood imaginary friend. The imaginary friend is a man who is alive and real in New York while on a break from his day job. The premise is pretty far fetched, but I read it as a modern-day fairy tale and thoroughly enjoyed it. I had never read ...

A lot of JP's recent books have been crap, so I didn't have high hopes for this one...especially after reading the book jacket. For those who gave it 0 or 1 star, lighten up!!! Use your imagination. ;) Rating:  - This is "City of Angels" if it had worked outAt times a bit sweet and charming, this book just doesn't deliver. It's vague to the point of being irritating, and the end seems cobbled together and rushed. It's hopeful, but there is something just weird about the adult relationship between the two characters. Check it out from the library. I'd love to sell my copy and recoup the money I wasted. Rating: - Immensely Enjoyed This BookDespite some of the other reviews on here, I loved this book. The story starts out with Jane being a young, not so attractive little girl who happens to have a mother who is more wrapped up in her own materialistic world, that Jane creates or meets her imaginary friend Michael. Michael cares for Jane very much, talks to her, keeps her company, etc. but of course, is only seen by Jane. The reader soon learns that Michael is more than just "imaginary" but rather a real angel who is assigned to young ... Read More Rating: - City of Angels meets Drop Dead FredThe good about the book: 1.) Interesting premise regarding imaginary friends. 2.) Quick read. 300 pages that probably should have been 150 in normal cirumstances. 3.)A lot of "aww" moments within the love story. The BAD: 1.) Older imaginary friend has lover. Michael, knew Jane as a child for 5 years (from 4-9). Yet he falls head over heels in love with her after knowing her as an adult for 2 days? Isn't it once you know someone as a kid, they're always ... Read More |
