| Jane Margaux is a lonely little girl. Her mother, a powerful Broadway producer, makes time for her only once a week, for their Sunday trip to admire jewelry at Tiffany's. Jane has only one friend: a handsome, comforting, funny man named Michael. He's perfect. But only she can see him. Michael can't stay forever, though. On Jane's ninth birthday he leaves, promising her that she'll soon forget him. Years later, in her thirties, Jane is just as alone as she was as a child. And despite her own success as a playwright, she is even more trapped by her overbearing mother. Then she meets someone-a handsome, comforting, funny man. He's perfect. His name is Michael . . . |

 CUTE AND WELL WRITTEN. |

This is a very cute idea of a story. Yes, a little far fetched but hey, what fairytale type Cinderella, isn't. It was well written, though I didn't expect anything less with James Patterson's name on it. Always loved the extremely short chapters. I love to stop at a new chapter which is one of the reasons the short chapters are so great, yet at the same time I always find myself saying, "Just one more chapter". Especially because they're so short.
This book was fast paced. I couldn't wait to see what happened, next. Loved the characters, and how everything played out. I read some not so nice reviews about the whole "imaginary friend" thing. All's I have to say is, get over it. It's a wonderful fictional love story. Kind of like finding the prince charming ever little girls dreams of. And really, haven't these people been taught...If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything!
I loved this heartwarming story. It's now been added to my favorites list of James Patterson books along with, Suzanne's Diary to Nicholas. Both are stories that will stay with me forever.

Yes, this book does seem a little strange at first. But, for those people... who haven't let the world jade them yet, they will fall in love with this book. Michael, is the definition of the 'perfect man'....he's there for you, he says the right things and he is a protector. Then there is, Jane, she is 'every woman' who compares themselves to those walking stick pinups that abound show business and magazines, she's a woman who is trying to live up to an overpowering mother and a tosser of an overrated actor/boyfriend, who thinks he is doing her a favor by being with her and is using sweet, Jane, as a stepping stone to further his own career.
Sundays at Tiffany's, is a fairy tale for adults and sometimes we have to remember that it's still all right to have fantasies and dreams. This book made me feel so much....and it is very rare that a book makes me feel for the characters when reading it. I can read this book over and over again and still feel thankful for reading it...even after multiple reads.
I loved it. Please, don't be perverted or cynical when reading this, let yourself go and enjoy the innocence of Jane and Michael! |

| It is a great book. I read it in 2 days. It grabs your attention and many people can relate to the immaginary friend from when you were a child. I loved it. Take time and read it. You will cry. |
Love often doesn't make sense

| I loved this book. So what if it isn't totally reality based. The transforming power of love and the idea that some people are just meant to be together was enough. I thought it was beautiful. For those who rolled their eyes....go read a murder mystery. I prefer a happy ending to murder and mayhem. |
Just a wonderful adult fairy tale

| Everyone, buy this time knows the story of Jane and her imaginary friend. What you do not know, if you have not had the honor of reading the book is that it is just an amazing and wonderful story. An adult fairy tale, if you wish. At times, I had a bit of trouble knowing whether Jane's friend, Michael, was real or imagined. But if you know all of this, what would be the purpose of reading such an incredible piece of literature. This brings back memories of having my parents and teachers read stories, with such wonderfully amazing characters, ones that you carry in your pocket for years and years. Kinda hated for this book to end. Be gracious and kind to yourself and read this book. You will fall in love all over, again and again. |
