This book is a disgrace. It's sad to see that any woman would stoop to such a low level as to publicly humiliate herself as well as a well-known author!

I understand that she had an affair with him, but that's it...AN AFFAIR! Get over it !!! It was an dumb-affair. I'm sure that Ms. St. James wasn't so young that she didn't realize what she was getting into!

I just think that it's sad and this book did nothing, but turn a memory of a romance (affair or not) into something that the public didn't need to know about!

Thanks...I'm done!

I was excited to find these tapes at my library and kept waiting for the "magical" love to reveal itself as it did in Waller's novel. Instead, I was told all sorts of "filler", such as what Jana St. James was wearing and what she ate each day. An unbelievable amount of extraneous material to blow smoke over her THIN story about an average affair initiated by a married man. One can only feel sorry for Waller's wife Georgia, learning what her husband was doing the night they gave birth to their daughter. Much wishful thinking on the part of St. James: I didn't see ANY parallels with Madison County, the novel, except that the characters had sex.

Certainly there are parallels to the love story in Bridges of Madison County, however this is a story of two young people who under different circumstances would likely have ended up together. There love seemed genuine but impossible. This is an easy read - and unlike the other reviewer, I do not judge Jana or Bob. As unfortunate as it sounds - affairs do happen.
