Anybody Read (or seen for that matter) The Pilot's Wife???

I bought it having no clue what it was about and was really mad by the end of the book. Anyone else read it???

you didn't add one that said "heard about it, never read it" cuz that would be me.. i'd heard about what was in the book, decided to never read it... it's supposed to make us mad and why would i want to read a book that makes me angry? i like happy/comedy type movies or escapisms.. not things that put me into the need for prozac! hahahaha

I'm surprised you read through the entire book!! :shock: what did you think?

Although the subject content was sensitive, the writing was excellent, character building was strong and the centeral plot was provacative.

Even though the thought of this happening to anyone is very difficult to think about, this is in fact a work of fiction. These are ideas and emotions many pilots wives struggle with at some point, so seeing how the main character Kathryn comes through it to me was very interesting.

Heard about it, I have no desire to read it.

Not to mention actually sitting and reading books is just something I don't get to do anymore!

your not kidding.. i noticed that your little man is walking now..or running... he must have you on the go constantly!!

here - I have 2 cats and still, no time to sit and read a good smut book! [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Sorry, I thought I put that as an option - haven't read it. Ooops.

I agree, the writing was very good as was the plot and character development, and that's probably why I finished it.

I go through reading phases. There are times I just read and read and read (usually in the summer and Christmas break), and there are times I just buy books in hopes of reading them someday.

me too...if i get into reading mode, i can finish a 250 pg book in a day easy.. sometimes in just a matter of hours.. just depends on if I have the time and if it's intriguing enough that i have to finish it!! just haven't had it lately, like in the past year.. I sure am hoping to find that part of myself again sometime in the near future! [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Yes...as most of you know by now...I am not The Pilot's Wife....but despite the fictional account...I did read it and it did impact me from the opposite side of the coin. I think it gave me some added sensitivity toward all of you here.

If there are other things or sites you could suggest I read, I would appreciate it.

i started reading it a couple of years ago but i never finished it. it was so depressing at the beginning from what I remember. i like books that are more fun. I can't wait for the semester to be over so i can start reading some high quality trashy smut novels
