I could not put this book down. It is a mystery read with so many questioning angles. I liked how the author developed the characters, especially the relationship between the grandmother and grand-daughter. If you like mysteries this is a five star one. I know my book club …more would not care for the violence and language, but if you can tolerate that, it is a very entertaining read.(less)
The Spare Room: A Novel
by Helen Garner
The Spare Room by Helen Garner(1/9/2009)
Each of our journey's in life are different, and I liked how Helen walked this segment of her journey. She was so compassionate with her friend, Nicola. She liked straightforward tasks of love and order that she could perform with ease (page 42). I loved how she shed tears …more while her granddaughter was performing at the school program (page 80). She was my kind of gal. I would recommend this book to my friends.(less)
