Summary: I FEEL LIKE ONE OF THE FRIENDS!
Comment: This is by far one of the best books I've read in a long time. I loved last year's THURSDAYS AT EIGHT, but this time Ms. Macomber outdid herself. BETWEEN FRIENDS is the story of the lifelong friendship between Jillian and Lesley - The story is told uniquely through the use of letters, journals entries, emails (later on in their lives), wedding & birth announcements, newspaper articles - even the occasional gas station receipt! You follow Jillian and Lesley from the day they were born (through the birth announcements of their parents) all the way up through the summer of 2002. What is so wonderful and makes this novel worth reading again and again, is how Ms. Macomber uses actual historic events to tell this story and move the friends through life. You will read about how Vietnam touched both girls and had a lasting affect on Jillian; how they each felt and reacted to the assassinations of JFK, Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy; what their feelings were about Women's Lib; connecting to each other via email and going "online"; even the tragic events of Sept. 11th are briefly touched upon (only wisely, Ms. Macomber spent little time on this subject and only used the event to explain the feelings of the two women today). You will see Lesley and Jillian experience life & death, the birth of children, loves of their lives entering and leaving; and the joys and heartache that see them through 50 years of friendship. You will witness not only the love Jillian and Lesley have for each other, but the love for their family and friends and the love these people have for each of them. Sometimes funny, plenty reminiscent, but mostly heartfelt, this story will stay with you forever and I guarantee you will return to this book again and again over the years if for no other reason, then to relive some point and time in our history that may have had a similar affect on you and your life as it had on Lesley and Jillian. Bravo Debbie Macomber - it will be difficult to top this one! (but I know you'll try!)

Summary: Excellent Book!
Comment: This was my first Debbie Macomber book and I absolutely loved it! The way the book was written made it fantastically fun to read! The storyline was very touching, it reminded me how important it is to keep in touch with my friends. I was in tears before the first half of the book, so much so that I had to stop reading and turn to the back of the book where Debbie's picture is and tell her that she shouldn't do that to readers so soon, it was killing me and I'm not even a softy! I highly recommend this book to anyone who has close friends, as well as my close friends! I look forward to reading my next Debbie Macomber book!

Summary: Reading "Between Friends" "Between Friends"
Comment: My friend that I met on vacation sent this book to me. The story fits us well since we're still keeping in touch after four years through letters and e-mails like Leslie and Jillian (the two friends from "Between Friends.")The book was absolutly wonderful and I'd suggest it to anyone who wants a good cry or longs for a heart warming story. I never wanted it to end but all good things do.
