    Hearts are tough, she said, most times hearts don't break, and I'm sure that's right . . . but what about then? What about who we were then? What about hearts in Atlantis?

    Eh, personal preference and all that...

    I've read it at least twice. It just didn't connect with me. I'm sure the books that I vote as 4s and 5s will get a few 1s or 2s as well. Seems like every single SK book is somebody's favorite.
