Product Description As a little girl, Jane has no one. Her mother, the powerful head of a Broadway theater company, has no time for her. She does have one friend-a handsome, comforting, funny man named Michael-but only she can see him.
Years later, Jane is in her thirties and just as alone as ever. Then she meets Michael again-as handsome, smart and perfect as she remembers him to be. But not even Michael knows the reason they've really been reunited.
SUNDAYS AT TIFFANY'S is a love story with an irresistible twist, a novel about the child inside all of us-and the boundary-crossing power of love.

Very Very Good 13 July, 2008 I think that the book starts out a little slow but if you give it a chance it ends up to be a very good read.

Totally Unbelievable Yet Still Interesting 16 July, 2008 As long as you put your sense of belief onto a shelf before turning the first page of SUNDAYS AT TIFFANY'S, you'll be fine.
It's a fast-moving read, as all of Mr. Patterson's books are, a love story of sorts that includes an interesting yet weirdly strange plot device. I enjoyed the basic writing and even the tone of the story, but parts of it were just so unbelievable that, at the end, I closed the book with a feeling of "Huh?" more than "Wow."
Patterson's fans will undoubtedly like it, but I wish he'd stick to subjects he writes about best -- murder and mayhem.

Waste Of A Day 19 July, 2008 This book took away an afternoon of my life that I will never get back. I usually enjoy books by this author, but this one was too far fetched. Imaginary friends are real and have homes? C'mon! I don't recommend this book at all.

Hmmm.... 12 July, 2008 Jane Margaux has an imaginary friend named Michael. He has been with her throughout her childhood till the age of nine, keeping her company when she feels lonely and boosting her self-esteem. As with any imaginary friend, he can't be with her forever... but twenty-three years later, who is this man entering her life? And why hasn't she ever forgotten Michael?
SUNDAY'S AT TIFFANY'S is a dramatic departure from the crime novels readers have come to expect from James Patterson. In fact, it's even unique amongst the very few romance novels he has written. SUNDAY'S AT TIFFANY'S has a magical quality, an almost childlike wonder at times that perhaps may not be surprising considering it is cowritten with children's author, Gabrielle Charbonnet.
The premise of an imaginary friend as an actual job occupation is brilliant. Each tidbit in the story about Michael's job and the various aspects of his work is fascinating. In fact, the early years where he worked with Jane are the true highlights of this story as Jane's early years are heart wrenching.
Even now, I haven't really decided how I feel about this one. There were parts that were so magical it was hard not to enjoy them. Moments so emotional they practically brought tears to my eyes. And yet, perhaps because it was so different from other books, I'm still left wondering how or why the ending happened. A tad more explanation at the end could have made this one perfectly stellar.

Not A Typical Patterson Novel 17 July, 2008 The reading and writing are fine but the story line was not of a typical Patterson that we are familiar with. It had twists and turns but of the romantic nature. If you like light reading, this is it. If you are looking for the Patterson suspense, this is not the book.
