Whilst I enjoyed this book immensely, I felt it didn't quite live up to the hype, hence the only 4 stars. I found the beginning a little slow, and would have liked to see more of Addie's life before she met Henry - the episodes we saw never seemed quite enough. Having said that, I liked Addie, and loved Henry, and felt sorry for both of them and enjoyed their romance, which had an ethereal quality about it becasue you knew as the reader that it couldn't possibly last. recommended, with slight reservations.
