Industry reviews
"It is an interesting structure, though a frustrating one....Just as we are beginning to get interested in the way the couple have been brought together again after so many years..., we are cast back to Kenya....The last section has more life, and it allows us finally to understand the heart of this couple's...passion....Yet what remains frustrating about THE LAST TIME THEY MET is the distance between the two characters, which is at the very heart of the story."
Times Literary Supplement - Sylvia Brownrigg (03/23/2001)

"Though the prose often sings, it can't transcend what is essentially a sentimental romance with a somewhat confusing plot contrivance....Still, the story is magnetic enough to engage one's interest through at least one reading...."
Book - E. Beth Thomas

All books are used! Some books are in very good condition and appear brand new, others may have creases, marking, spots etc. Books are from garage sales etc, some are personal copies. Please see attached picture for an idea of the books condition. Thanks for bidding and please check out my other auctions here on Ebay. Feedback is vital for sellers and I only ask that before you leave feedback you contact me with any issues you may have and I will be happy to assist and address any concerns. Your satisfaction is my only concern. I am a proud Navy wife who is trying to keep busy during my husbands multiple deployments and my love for books has led me here. Though the sale of every book makes me proud it also saddens me a bit, as though I am losing a friend. Hope you will enjoy these books as much as I have. Thanks and come again.

Books (Cookbooks/Fiction/Non-Fiction/Children’s) Brand New - New, unread, unused and in perfect condition with no missing or damaged pages. Like New - Shiny, undamaged cover, dust jacket included for hard covers, no missing pages, all pages undamaged (no creases or tears), no underlining/highlighting of text, no damage to binding, no writing in margins (item is or could easily be mistaken for brand new).

Shipping within the US is by Media Mail which though cheap is slow at times. Expect books to arrive in about seven to ten business days but has been known to take longer. I will ship items usually by the next business day following the clearance of payment. Please do not lower my feedback rating based on the speed of the post office. I ship quickly, but the post office can take some time to get the books to you. So please base your feedback on the time I take to ship the item. Check the order detail page and it will show up when I have shipped. Thanks!!
