Have I read this before: Nope.

Review: This was an enjoyable book. Similar to Atonement, it didn’t go where I thought it would go. But unlike Atonement, I didn’t really mind that. I also really like books that revolve around a strong friendship between two people, and this book had that…even if it fell out of focus after a bit.

Favorite Part: When Sebastian contacts Charles to come see him immediately and Charles is sure that Sebastian is seriously ill or injured or even already dead.

The cornfields and heavy woodland sped past, deep in the golden evening, and the throb of the wheels repeated monotonously in my ears, “You’ve come too late. You’ve come too late. He’s dead. He’s dead.”

…

[Charles] “What’s happened to him?”
[Lady Julia] “Didn’t he say? I expect he thought you wouldn’t come if you knew. He’s cracked a bone in his ankle so small that it hasn’t a name.”
