DEEP END OF THE OCEAN...THE REST OF THE STORY...



When Deep End of the Ocean was released and became the first Oprah book it changed everything. It was a compelling story that still engages readers. When we reluctantly closed the book, we all wondered what happened to the family.
Everyone has been anxiously awaiting the sequel.
Well wait no more.
It's here!!!!!
NO TIME TO WAVE GOODBYE

Those of us attending the Hawaii Writers Conference and Retreat were able to score early copies of Jacquelyn Mitchard's sequel to her best selling first novel.
Was it worth the wait?
YOU BETCHA.
Grab your copy now and dive right in...

After reading it - I was compelled to re read Deep End of the Ocean and marvel once more at the characters, the premise and what a terrific story it is and think back...
1996...I had been living in Hawaii for over five years, I was on the beach and immersed from the very first page...

Where were YOU when you first read Deep End of the Ocean?

I was scuba diving at that time and told JM that I'd read it after I saw how the killer whales mated.

I read it in September 2007 after meeting Jacquelyn Mitchard at the Maui Writers Conference.

I was working at B&N at the time. I had not read it yet but had heard about it being an Oprah selection. A customer came in looking for it, and I was the only bookseller there who had heard of the book, the book club.
