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.
Hmmm.... July 12, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
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.

Absolutely Fabulous!! July 12, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I loved this book! It was a great easy read with short chapters. I like that it was a light romance which I do not normally like. I am a huge Patterson fan and just loved the change. Where is everyone's imagination? I think you should definately give those one a read I don't think you will be disappointed.
Very VERY Disappointed July 11, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Sam's Letters to Jennifer and Suzanne's Diary for Nicolas are two of my favorite books so I couldn't wait to read this one however I wish I had those hours of my life back. I kept waiting for there to be something to make me think reading about a imaginary person was going to make sense but it never did. It was totally ridiculous and makes no sense whatsoever. I couldn't even find any sort of underlying message, it was just a total wast of time and I am totally disappointed.
