What A Book

I really enjoyed As We Lay a book about an adult relationship. The writing was so good and the characters was so real, that I found myself not wanting the syory to end because I new something bad was going to happen.In a relationship like Eric and Breck had nobody wins. I still cried at the end,something I usually don't do. As We Lay would be a great book club book

wonderful exploration

Poignant exploration of the rugged emotional terrain of adult relationships. I found the characters to be captivating and believable. I was really touched by the realism.

Pretty Good Book

This book was well-written, and one of the best I've read in a long time. I do not condone infidelity, he should have made a choice. It was a difficult situation for all parties. I highly recommend you read this book.

A really good book

I thought this book was very well written. I don't agree with infidelity, the characters were responsible for the choices they made. I would highly recommend this book, and will read more from this author.

Be Careful what you wish for

AS WE LAY takes a hard look at the price of having an affair with a married man; a price ultimately paid by everyone close to the relationship...Ms. Johnson tells this story with a uniquely mature look at infidelity, void of the intense drama so prevalent in some relationship novels. And while this story in no way condones their volatile affair, it certainly gives an unrestricted view of the other side. And it escalates this situation to more than just a clear-cut right or wrong issue. There are lessons to be learned on all sides. Bold, deliberate, and provocatively real, this is a monumental read.
