I began reading some of Luanne Rice's novels about a year ago. Since then I just can't get enough of her stories. She really has the necessary knack for developing the storyline, and keeps you involved with both major and minor characters. Sure, some of the story may not be palpable as far as what might actually could be expected to occur in real life, but it is fiction and Ms. Rice can invoke author's privilege! I thoroughly enjoy her writing and find it a welcome break from the hectic nature of today.
I absolutely just love Luanne Rice as an author, I have most of all her books. When I bought "What Matters Most", I threw it on the bookshelf for quite awhile, I didn't have much time to read at the time. When I started reading this book, it was sort of hard for me to get into and I thought its got to get more interesting because Luanne wrote it. So I think it was like the 3rd. chapter and then it was like I have to keep reading this book to see how it ends! I admit it was very tempting not to read the last couple of chapters to see how it ended but I didn't, and I am so glad I didn't. The ending for me was shocking and wasn't how I wanted it to end. This is a GREAT BOOK but Please have some tissues handy toward the end!!!
Book is a continuation of sandcastles by the same author. however even if you did not read Sandcastles this book stands on its own. What Matters Most gets you really thinking about what the title states what matters most. it had me thinking but at the same time it wasn't heavy reading where you got bored! This to me is one of Ms. Rice's best books yet!!!!! The family dynamics are fantastic!!! The characters are real people in real situations which is why I could not put the book down. I hope all Ms. Rice's readers get a chance to read this book !!
This is a sequel to Luanne Rice's book Sand Castles,so couldn't wait to read this one. I love all of Luanne Rice's books and this one didn't disappointment me and was hard to put down. The ending was a surprise and you do need to have a tissue handy when you read this-I won't say what happens though,you have to read it yourself. But I do highly recommend you read Sand Castles first as you would have a better understanding of what this couple has gone through together over the years.
Where to start ..... this was by far the best Luanne Rice book so far. I agree that the ending wasn't my favorite but I am sure hoping the next book continues where this one left off. I am new to Luanne Rice books but I read one a day to catch up and now I am hooked !!!!!!!! Living in CT and spending summers at the shore, I dive right in as if I am there.
Loved this book!! Love the Author. Can't wait for the next one.One of my all time favorite authors. I want to go to all the places she writes about.
I bought this book because I like to read books by this author. I have read all of the books she has written so far. All have been really good.
I love all the books by Luanne Rice. This sequel to Sandcastles is a wonderful read. I highly recommend this book but read the first part first. It's one of those books that you just can't put down.
Luanne Rice is a great story teller. I enjoy all of her books. She has a way of making her characters seem real. A good read.
This authur is just fabulous! This book was the follow-up to another book. I've been loaning these books to friends, and after reading the first book, everyone was in a hurry to read "What Matters Most" and couldn't put it down.
