Reviews About “A Piece of the World” by “Christina Baker Kline”
This was my first book read for 2017. It came highly recommended by our local librarian. My wife and I were talking about it in line at our local grocery store. When we both realized we had read it and loved it! We talked about how good books are like old friends, even if you haven’t seen them in a while. You pick up where you left off with no effort or extra steps to take. A Piece of The World is like that for me; I just fell back into it effortlessly and easily remembered all of my feelings about characters and situations as I re-read those parts. If nothing else, Christina Baker Kline is a master storyteller who crafts wonderful characters that stay with you long after you’ve finished reading her books!
