Product Description |
As a little girl, Jane has no one. Her mother Vivienne Margaux, the powerful head of a major New York theater company has no time for her. But she does have one friend--Michael--and no one can see him but her. But Michael can't stay with Jane forever, and on her eighth birthday, her imaginary friend must leave her.
When Jane is in her thirties, working for her mother's company, she is just as alone as she was as a child. Her boyfriend hardly knows she's there and is more interested in what Vivienne can do for his career. Her mother practically treats her as a slave in the office, despite the great success of Jane's first play, "Thank Heaven." Then she finds Michael--handsome, and just the same as she remembers him, only now he's not imaginary. For once in her life, Jane is happy--and has someone who loves her back. But not even Michael knows the reason behind why they've really been reunited. |

a bit on the light side |
|
I thought the imaginary friend concept was at least different. Other reviewers found it inplausible, maybe they have less imagination. It's a light summer read with some tear-jerking moments. Overall, I liked it because the premise was different. |

Waste of a day |
|
This book took away an afternoon of my life that I will never get back. I usually enjoy books by this author, but this one was too far fetched. Imaginary friends are real and have homes? C'mon! I don't recommend this book at all. |

Not a typical Patterson Novel |
|
The reading and writing are fine but the story line was not of a typical Patterson that we are familiar with. It had twists and turns but of the romantic nature. If you like light reading, this is it. If you are looking for the Patterson suspense, this is not the book. |

Totally Unbelievable Yet Still Interesting |
As long as you put your sense of belief onto a shelf before turning the first page of SUNDAYS AT TIFFANY'S, you'll be fine.
It's a fast-moving read, as all of Mr. Patterson's books are, a love story of sorts that includes an interesting yet weirdly strange plot device. I enjoyed the basic writing and even the tone of the story, but parts of it were just so unbelievable that, at the end, I closed the book with a feeling of "Huh?" more than "Wow."
Patterson's fans will undoubtedly like it, but I wish he'd stick to subjects he writes about best -- murder and mayhem. |

Very Very Good |
|
I think that the book starts out a little slow but if you give it a chance it ends up to be a very good read. |
