Great story!

This is one of those books that stay with you after you read it. I really enjoyed this story especially since I vacationed in Maine and knew of the the cities mentioned. Great story and wonderful narration.

What a clever book!

Three elite writers and one of the leading editors find themselves together waiting out the remainder of their days at a retirement home for writers and those in publishing, fondly referred to as “the Pen” (pun intended). Alphonse, a legendary author and philanderer, has just arrived and becomes smitten with orderly Cecibelle, a young woman scarred both inside and out. Using Cecibelle as his muse, Alphonse starts writing again, something he hasn’t done for over a decade. When Olivia and Switch learn of Alphonse’s new manuscript, each jumps in and writes alternating chapters. Editor Judy lends her editorial skills, and the fun begins.

The book written within is just as entertaining as the novel itself. Truly a fun, unique spin and so well-written. I loved all the characters, those who the book was about, and those within the book that the characters wrote.

This is a wonderful read.

wow!

One of the best books I've ever read. Thoroughly enjoyed all the characters, their depth, and the different stories. Can't recommend it enough.

Good, but sometimes confusing

This was a good book. It was hard to get into and sometimes hard to follow because of the 2 story lines. It seemed very long.

Lots of sex

I could do with more story and fewer sex scenes. It’s pretty formulaic. Just okay.
