Sundays at Tiffany's

Overview

As a little girl, Jane has no one. Her mother, the powerful head of a Broadway theater company, has no time for her. She does have one friend-a handsome, comforting, funny man named Michael-but only she can see him. Years later, Jane is in her thirties and just as alone as ever. Then she meets Michael again-as handsome, smart and perfect as she remembers him to be. But not even Michael knows the reason they've really been reunited. SUNDAYS AT TIFFANY'S is a love story with an irresistible twist, a novel about the child inside all of us-and the boundary-crossing power of love.

Bio of James Patterson

The subject of a recent Time magazine feature called, "The Man Who Can't Miss," James Patterson is the bestselling author of the past year, bar none, with more than 16 million books sold in North America alone. In 2007, one of every 15 hardcover fiction books sold was a Patterson title. In total, James's books have sold an estimated 150 million copies worldwide. He is the first author to have #1 new titles simultaneously on The New York Times adult and children's lists and is the only author to have five new hardcover novels debut at #1 on the list in one year -- a record-breaking feat he's accomplished every year since 2005. To date, James Patterson has had nineteen consecutive #1 New York Times Bestselling Novels, and holds the New York Times record for most bestselling titles by a single author (40 total). Patterson is a champion of reading and the founder of the PageTurner awards, which seek to spread the excitement and joy of books and reading in the United States. James's first foray into family fiction, the critically acclaimed Maximum Ride series, debuted on the New York Times list at #1 and remained there for 12 straight weeks. The series has so far made appearances on The New York Times bestsellers lists 87 times, proving that kids of all ages love page turners. Patterson is the creator of the #1 new detective series of the past dozen years, featuring "Alex Cross" and including the Hollywood-adapted "Along Came a Spider" and "Kiss the Girls," starring Academy Award-winning actor Morgan Freeman. He is also the creator of the #1 new detective series of the past five years, featuring Lindsay Boxer and the other members of the Women's Murder Club, from which the ABC television drama series is adapted. He has authored books behind six films on the Hollywood fast-track, including the upcoming Maximum Ride movie from Avi Arad, the producer of X-Men and Spiderman. Most recently, New Regency Pictures has optioned The Dangerous Days of Daniel X, James's newest family Pageturner due out in July of 2008. He is the author of novels -- from The Thomas Berryman Number (1976) to Honeymoon (2005) -- that have won awards including the Edgar, the BCA Mystery Guild's Thriller of the Year, the International Thriller of the Year award, and the Reader's Digest Reader's Choice Award. One of Forbes magazine's Celebrity 100, James appeared as a guest star on the popular FOX TV show "The Simpsons" in March, 2007.

• Sweet Story

  Posted July 07, 2008 by Elle, Los Angles

  It's hard to believe that an author who usually writes crime thrillers could write such a sweet and whimisical story. Sundays at Tiffany's is a light-hearted romance, with a twist. I found it a fast and breezy read, but wished that there was more character development and explanation of Michael's past.

• Good book - fast read

  Break from the norm for Patterson readers. I enjoyed it, and was surprised!

• Completely unexpected

  Posted October 18, 2009 by Deanna, Los Angeles

  I am a huge fan of all things James Patterson, particularly the Women's Murder Club series. I got this book on a recommendation from a friend, and I am so glad I did. A huge departure from the usual Patterson fare... this is perhaps the best love story I have ever read (and I am not into romance novels). I could not put it down! Perfect!

• Disappointing

  Posted November 15, 2009 by Reading Randi, Edmonton, Alberta

  I have read hundreds of books from all different genres and this is the first book I was unable to finish. It was quite honestly, horrible. I have read many of James Patterson's books and always enjoyed his writing style but the fantasy behind this novel was just too silly to buy into. I find it hard to believe that even giggling school girls would enjoy this one. Of course, I didn't finish it so maybe somewhere in that mess of unbelievable schmaltz it all came together to make some form of sense but I doubt it... I read 3/4 of it before finally giving up and deleting it.
