More with Anna and Lily.

I've read a fair bit of what MacGregor has written now and to me, this was the worst of the bunch. It wasn't a bad novel by any means. It was well written and well plotted. The new and old characters were unique, interesting and well written as well.

Also, I understand why it

wasn't as happy or hopeful as the first book. To have drama and progress in a book or series of books you also have to have obstacles and pain and suffering. After all life is pain and suffering just as much as it is happiness and puppies. But, this book just seemed to have so much, 'real life' smooshed into one book that it got tiring to read. Wondering what was going to be thrown at the characters next.

One part of the book that I really liked was the funny, cut and very dog like Chester the dog. I think there's always a balance between making a pet either too animal like or too human like, but MacGregor found the balance and Chester was both a hilarious and comforting addition to the novel.

A bit different from the online version. Very good.

3/29/13 - finished a second read and it's my least favorite of the series but that's because the subjects are pretty depressing. It's a good story and I'm not sorry to have been witness to the difficulties that Anna and Lily go through. It's nice
