These letters are often all that get me through week to week. Even if it’s just random stuff, nothing important, they’re important to me. Gramps is great, and I love working on the ranch. But…I’m lonely. I feel disconnected, like I’m no one, like I don’t belong anywhere. Like I’m just here until something else happens. I don’t even know what I want with my future. But your letters, they make me feel connected to something, to someone.

Summary
The story of a remarkable friendship - told in a remarkable way. A story in which every woman will recognize herself...and her best friend
Jillian Lawton and Lesley Adamski. Two girls from very different backgrounds become best friends in the turbulent '60s, but their circumstances and choices - and their mistakes - take them in opposite directions. Lesley stays in their hometown. She marries young, living a life defined by the demands of small children, never enough money, and an unfaithful husband. Jill lives those years on a college campus shaken by the Vietnam War, and then as an idealistic young lawyer in New York City.
But they always remain friends.
Through the years and across the miles, Jill and Lesley confide everything to each other - every grief and joy. Because the quality of a friendship is the quality of a life.

good story crappy format!
As always, I very much enjoy Debbie Macombers stories,and this was no exception. That being said, I did not like the format at all. to listen to every address on every envelope, or every line of an airline ticket was very tedious. I thought of returning the book, but muscled my way through. I will not however purchase written in this format.

Time and dates
While I didn’t dislike the storyline, the constant announcing of dates and time was really unnecessary. I almost quit listening Gabon several occasions, but thought I should try to listen since I paid for it. I would not be inclined to recommend this book. I have listened to many Debbie Macomber stories and have enjoyed them.

Such a delightful way to tell a story!
At first I thought I wasn’t going to like this book, but I picked it up a second time and as I got into it I found Debbie Macomber’s style in writing for this book intrigued my senses and kept me involved. I’m a 76 year old women so I could recall, and relate to, all of the history Debbie so cleverly wove into the communications between these two friends. But it wasn’t just history, this book told very personal stories, as well. Thank you, Debbie Macomber, for the ‘experience’.

The story is based on many diary entries. It felt like someone was reading me someone else’s diary entry and it was boring. The storyline was also very predictable and did not move fast or have any element of excitement or intrigue.

I didn’t want this book to end! Fantastic narrator too.
I have recently become a fan of Debbie Macomber, and have listened to five of her books in a row. I started this one two days ago and almost, almost sent it back because I found the journal entries and letters a little off putting at the beginning. I think within half an hour I was hooked and I actually think this was my favorite novel. All the letter, journal, and latterly emails are actually so good.
Her books are well researched, she doesn’t have so many characters you get them muddled up and you get to know their personalities. Her books are down to earth and have realistic storylines.
I loved that this took you through five decades of the two main characters and referred to real life events.
As with all her books and all books whoever the writer, the narrator makes the book and Amy Tallmadge is perfect.
I don’t know what to listen to now!
