Falling Together

Just finished my third novel from Marisa de los Santos.  I love her characters, and I loved Pen and Will in Falling Together.  I had read some reviews that this book was not quite up to her first two, but I enjoyed this one, too.

Maybe the stories were better in Love Walked In and Belong to Me - but in each book she just knows how to use words in a lovely wonderful way.  Sometimes I don't know what kind of books I like - when people ask me what I read I can't really describe what draws me to a book.  How do you explain that you like books that are well written???  My favorite books might be thematically linked or primarily a similar genre, but I don't see it that way at all.

I hardly ever read nonfiction for pleasure - almost all the nonfiction books I read are related to work - strategy, marketing, consulting, innovation.  They never captivate me the way literature does.  I think it's the heart/head thing.  I really liked and valued Jim Collins "Good to Great" - but love?  No nuh-uh.
