Lucy and EthanI am so bummed I didn't like this book. Lucy was too much for me to take. I couldn't handle her grief or the depressing tone of this whole book. Full review on Fiction Vixen Book Reviews Lucy was widow at a young age and finally feels like she needs to move on with her life. It ha...

My Rating: 3.0 The Next Best Thing is one book that I'll have to think about for awhile. I don't know what rating to give it, a three? A three-point-five? I don't know.

I was five starring this all the way until around page 200, when it started to get a bit redundant and I kept wanting to smack Lucy. She'...

This is one of those novels wherein I'm seriously pissed off to the protagonist, well, aside of course from Bella Swan, and this was the first novel that I've read from Ms. Higgins. Sure, Lucy may be in grief and people do have different coping mechanisms, but why does it have to hurt someone? Yeah,...
