would have given this 4 stars except 4 of the stories in this book have been published in a previous collection. If I had paid for this book I would have been pissed! (

Five stars for the William and Clare stories, and for the title story. Three stars for the rest. It all averages out to a four star book. (

The stories about Henry and Claire and the ones that are a contination of Sleepwalking are stellar. What a voice and so much compassion. (

Wow. I've loved some of Amy Bloom's stories. These were just yucky. The style might have been graceful, but I couldn't tell. The perspective shifts from now to nostalgia were disturbing enough - but the people and the situations they were in (often of their own free will) were just so sad and ugly.

(I do admit I didn't really finish it. That is, I read the first set of stories, read less carefully the first stand-alone, and scanned the rest, until the last and title story, which I did read.) (

A unique offer for fans of Amy Bloom, bestselling author of Away...sample just one piece from her stunning new collection of interconnected short stories. Available at this special price for a limited time only.

Love, in its many forms and complexities, weaves through New York Times bestselling author Amy Bloom's astonishing and astute new work. Insightful, sensuous, and heartbreakingly funny, Where the God of Love Hangs Out illuminates the mysteries of love, family, and friendship.

In the haunting story Between Here and Here, a daughter reluctantly steps in to take care of the infirm father she hated for so many years. As a tribute to her late mother, and to show that she is a better person than her father, she gives everything she has to this terrible old man and revises history.

Between Here and Here and the eleven other stories that comprise Where the God of Love Hangs Out showcase stories of passion and disappointment, life and death, that beautifully capture deep human truths.
