Lost Lake - Sarah Addison Allen I like how Sarah Addison Allen's books always have that bit of magic in them that make you think that maybe it's not so out of the realm of possibility. People have those "feelings" all of the time. So maybe for some it's just a little more. I loved the way the...

I'd heard through the book vine that Lost Lake was one of Allen's weaker offerings, but its synopsis pulled me in more than The Peach Keeper's and it was the only one my library had. Reading it, I can understand the meh reactions; emotionally, the book doesn't have much of a build-up of tension....

This book will take you away into a world of possibilities, second chances and hope after traumatic events, loss and sadness. It will leave you smiling even though the plot is obvious and the ending is all but expected. The characters are quirky and lovable even with their faults. The setting is war...

I liked the setting of this and the way certain things happened to wrap up the story. Lost Lake reminded me a lot of a Hallmark movie. I did find it hard to believe that people would be so stuck in the past for so long, especially in the case of one character. You would think after 50 years a person...

This was my first SAA book, but it definitely won't be my last! Lost Lake is a hard book to categorize, it's like realistic fiction with a dash of whimsy and magic. That in itself sold me on it. I loved the feel that this book had, like maybe anything was possible. The setting had this same feel, it...

Ah, Sarah Addison Allen. She was my first glimpse into the world of magical realism and, so far, the best I've read in the genre. Her ability to seamlessly weave real life situations with magical undertones is something beautiful! I've yet to find a book of hers that I didn't love at least a little ...

Sarah Addison Allen did it again! She has quickly become one of my favorite authors and I'm so happy I found her. I loved this book so much it is right up there with The Girl Who Chased the Moon for me. I can not wait to pick up her other books. Totally recommend. Like really I'm jealous of people ...
