 Sundays at Tiffany's July 17, 2008
I guess I'm a little confused. This is a book for grownups? A sweet little fantasy love story on the order of Cinderella or Sleeping Beauty. But the plot, the characters and, most of all, the writing were so juvenile that it reminded me of books I read in junior high school. I know I come across as horrible to so many of you who loved this book but I have to warn the rest of you: I found myself groaning and rolling my eyes quite frequently - and wondering whether James and Gabrielle were secretly laughing at their pathetic readers and what they'll pay 14.95 for at Costco. Including me.
Not a typical Patterson Novel July 17, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
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 July 16, 2008
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 July 13, 2008
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.

Jane Margaux has an imaginary friend named Michael. He has been with her throughout her childhood till the age of nine, keeping her company when she feels lonely and boosting her self-esteem. As with any imaginary friend, he can't be with her forever... but twenty-three years later, who is this man entering her life? And why hasn't she ever forgotten Michael?
SUNDAY'S AT TIFFANY'S is a dramatic departure from the crime novels readers have come to expect from James Patterson. In fact, it's even unique amongst the very few romance novels he has written. SUNDAY'S AT TIFFANY'S has a magical quality, an almost childlike wonder at times that perhaps may not be surprising considering it is cowritten with children's author, Gabrielle Charbonnet.
The premise of an imaginary friend as an actual job occupation is brilliant. Each tidbit in the story about Michael's job and the various aspects of his work is fascinating. In fact, the early years where he worked with Jane are the true highlights of this story as Jane's early years are heart wrenching.
Even now, I haven't really decided how I feel about this one. There were parts that were so magical it was hard not to enjoy them. Moments so emotional they practically brought tears to my eyes. And yet, perhaps because it was so different from other books, I'm still left wondering how or why the ending happened. A tad more explanation at the end could have made this one perfectly stellar.
