I really like the concept of this book. It's the story of a woman presented with a choice of relationships. Instead of following just one of those choices, the book follows what would happen with each choice, side by side. Kind of a parallel universes sort of thing.
The point of the book isn't really which choice she makes, but more the results and consequences of each choice. All relationships have results, consequences, ups and downs, strong and weak features. I guess there is no ideal perfect one - it's a matter of making the best of whichever choice you go with and accepting its effects.
It's a hefty book - 500 pages. Just my kind of tome to read. If I can get through the last three Harry Potters and The Historian and Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell and The Witching Hour, this one should be no problem. It comes out in May, I think.
