I was hooked! Nancy Farkas starts with the best female "Dedication" I've ever read.
"Annie," the young narrator and lead character in "This Nearly Was Mine" novel, wants her life grounded in reality; yet she knows her life, and ours, needs fantasy, and she is not afraid to show her vulnerabilities. This is a charming, stimulating and interesting journey. It's also a delightful and revealing read. Off to the races!

I felt I traveled with Annie, a sensitive and yearning friend, in her exploration of life, seeking love and intimacy, hopefully with "Francisco," (THE one?) across her beloved Spain. Oh, the eating and drinking and vistas!! Nancy Farkas' writing is insightful, funny and savvy and she knows how to zero in on fantasies we all require. It's a thought-provoking, stimulating and interesting journey and the author's writing made me feel like Annie's confidante.
I loved the music (late 70's) and movies the author selected to travel along and share with us in her well-paced novel. I'm hoping a screenplay is in the making.
Nancy Farkas, I'm about to enjoy a sangria and I drink to you while waiting for your next book, please.
Salud!!
