I find that sometimes in books I read too. There's a sort of symmetry that I just can't resist. I have only read one Tracy Chevalier book and enjoyed it. I like her writing. Even with that one, it wasn't so much the characters and story itself that had me really appreciating the book in the end, but the way the author put it all together over the course of the novel.

I also have a lot of trouble with dialogue written in accents. <br /><br />The stuff about seeds sounds strangely interesting.

Your positives have me considering it a little more...<br /><br />As for those Memorable Moments, I keep a small notebook with whatever I'm reading at the time. That's where I note the first lines and any parts I think might be worthy of using in my review. For "real" books, I just note page numbers, but with my Kindle, I write down the portions so I don't have to go back and find them.<br /><br />Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00859017153454691633noreply@blogger.com
