Promises to Keep: A Novel Audiobook

" Good beach read. Heavier than Jane green's other books but also good like the rest. "

" Loved this book. Full of cozy details, recipes, love and loss. "

" It was a good read but it did not fully grasp my attention till I was half way through. "

" A touching story about family ties "

" Talk about a tear jerker. Great book, so quick to read. Jane Green is def. chick lit, but she never disappoints. "

" Fast, easy read that almost brought me to tears at the end. I'm definetly getting more emotional as I get older. Had some good looking recipes (one at the end of each chapter) as well. "

" Very different from the other Jane Green novels that I have read. "

" If you have any tears that need to be jerked, this is the book for you. Callie Perry has the ideal life. She is a breast cancer survivor, she is happily married with two young children, and she is surrounded by loving family and friends. Then the unthinkable happens and it tests the love and friendship of all those around her. This book is about the relationships between four women--Callie; Steffi, her younger sister and the ultimate free spirit; Lila, Callie's best friend for decades; and Honor, Callie and Steffi's mother. I have very strong opinions on friendship. I think that friends should support each other during both the good times and the difficult times and that it is important for friends to let each other know if there is a problem in the relationship. The women in this book could be role models for the ties of love and friendship that can exist among women and the obligations that such relationships require. Quite simply, parts of this book made me laugh out loud and parts of it brought me to tears. Jane Green wrote this book as an homage to her best friend and the strength of that relationship is on quiet display in this story. "

" Very moving. Highly recommend. "

" This was another good book by Jane Green. Not my favorite, but she tells a good story. She sets scenes very well and makes you feel like you could be sitting right there along with the characters. "

" It was just barely okay. Too repetitive, too smooshy (you know what I mean), although if you like smooshy you're in for a treat, and too predictable. My favorite thing about the book? The recipes. "

" Like the recipes in the book! Not as good as The Beach House in my opinion. "

" Heartbreaking. It made me laugh and cry. "

" An easy ready, chick lit, tear jerker :) "

" So very sad. Did not know it would be so sad "

" I've read all of Jane Green's books. This has to be one of my favorites. I can't remember the last time I started and finished a book in one day, but I seriously could not put it down. "

" Every bit as tearful as I'd been told it would be - glad I wasn't reading it on the train. "

" A real tear jerker!!! Loved it because of the recipes at the end of each chapter - some really good "

" Choppy - overall story was worth telling but the intro drug on and on, then the story wrapped up quickly. "

" Loved this book, helps us remember what is important in life! "

" lovely. SPOILER ALERT--this is a wicked tear-jerker despite how sunny the beginning is. "

" This was tough to read with a friend who's currently battling breast cancer, but I like Green's crisp style. First time she's ever included recipes in one of her books. "

" This book made me cry, and the recipes are delicious. "

" Not as enjoyable as the usual Jane Green chick lit ... SPOILER ALERT I didn't like the bittersweet ending. When I read something like this, I want it to be frothy and fun, not kind of a downer. "

" An interesting book that focuses on family and friends, changes in their lives and the impact of cancer on their relationships. Mouth watering recipes at the end of each chapter. It was a sensitive and compelling book. "

" A tear-jerker about a breast cancer survivor & her relationships with her flighty sister, her best friend & her mother. "

" Fast, easy read that almost brought me to tears at the end. I'm definetly getting more emotional as I get older. Had some good looking recipes (one at the end of each chapter) as well. "

" Everything was good, except I do not want to live through the horrors of cancer. "

" Be sure to have the tissues by your side as you near the end. "

" Loved this book! It was a quick read and I thought the recipes at the end of each chapter was very clever. "

" Choppy - overall story was worth telling but the intro drug on and on, then the story wrapped up quickly. "

" Wish there were a half star -- more than 3, less than 4 "

" easy read for a weekend, not to deep somewhat predictable, but that is just what I needed!! "

" Predictable, easy read. However, that is the reason I read books by authors like Jane Green sometimes. "

" not the best Jane Green I've read, nice and easy going "

" cried my eyes out - hard to get into at first. I kept wondering what the plot even was but once it got going I enjoyed it. "

" Better than the last couple of books I've read... Which isn't saying a whole lot... "
