Wonderful story - AND movie

This book is just wonderful in so many words. It shows how you can go on after a heartbreaking loss of a spouse, and the challanges that you must face afterwards. I loved it.Only problem is when i start reading danielle steel books, I keep reading one after another, and my husband tells me i dont spend any time with him..he'll say, "here hug a book! hug a book! you dont wanna cuddles with me so HERE HUG A BOOK!"sweet thing...anyways, read this it is wonderful

Excellent.... but heartbreaking....

Get the Kleenex ready for this one... I don't want to give too much away, so I'll make this review short and sweet. This story will excite you, and warm your heart, then take a tear-jerking turn!!! You'll feel sadness in ways you've never felt before. The movie was just as good as the book in this one. I never quite got over this book. Don't read if you've dealt with a loss of a loved one, or a tragic illness in the recent past!!! But save it... it's a wonderful story.

Absolutely Amazing!!!

This book was amazing!!! The things that go through your mind while reading this book are indescribable. This has to be by far the best book I have ever read. After Bernie Fine moves to San Francisco on business and gets his life together it becomes an amazing fairy tale that every girl wishes for but soon after tragedy strikes it all seems to fall apart. But with an excellent ending it all comes together. An important point to this book is how it twisted the norm, it always seems as though it is the women left to pick up their shambled lives while raising their children after dealing with some tragedy, but this book did a fine job of showing that that is not always the case. I truly enjoyed this book and could not put it down after I had started it. Another excellent job done by Danielle Steel.

Emotional Roller Coaster!

Fine Things, in my opinion, is one of the best examples of Ms. Steel's writing. She clearly shows her talent with this one! Your heart automatically goes out to our hero, Bernie, as he expertly faces the never ending traumas in his lifetime. The tragic events that take place, yet the humorous dialogue given from Bernie's Jewish mother, help to shape Steel's best book yet!

Awesome....heart touching!

This is one of my all time favorites by Danielle Steele. I cried practically through the whole book and could relate to the circumstances involving Bernie, Liz, and Jane. I'd recommend this to any fan of romance readers (especially Danielle Steele).
