Beatifully written, enjoyable, empathetic novel. With unique humor, the author raises some very thoughtful questions to us as individuals and community members. An ideal read for a book club!! Website is a wonderful and fun compliment.

There are books, there are great books, and then there are masterpieces like this; written with a clarity that changes the way we think, reason and laugh about things. I can't wait for what is up this author's sleeve next.

Clarence, Minnesota...isn't that next to Lake Wobegon? I think their high-school football teams play in the same league.

Spilling Clarence brought back some wonderful years in Minnesota, though now I'm not sure how accurate those memories really are!

I'm about 100 pages into Spilling Clarence, and it's full speed ahead. Great website, too!

I haven't read the book, but I am camped by my front door waiting for it to arrive. The mailman says I'm frightening him, and everyone in my building, for that matter, but I don't care. Three cheers for Anne!!!!

A wise and witty book from a brilliant author and a beautiful person. Do not hesitate. Run, do not walk, to your nearest bookstore and buy a pile of SPILLING CLARENCES. Heaven only knows when an extra copy or three might come in handy!

Spilling Clarence is a wonderful novel: witty, intelligent, and emotionally engaging. This website is great fun. Glad I found it, and talented new author Anne Ursu!

I enjoyed this very touching and clever book. It really makes you think about the nature of memory, about what you've forgotten and about what you maybe really don't want to remember.

This is a wonderful book filled with appealing characters. (I particularly liked Sophie, trying to valiantly to be the big girl she's urged to be.) There are gems of humor and much to think about.

How can a novel be thought-provoking, bittersweet, and witty all at once? Read i Spilling Clarence to find out. This book will be with you long after you close the cover.

After reading SC, I never want to come across a drug like Deletrium. Then I realized that the book triggered so many memories and affected me so deeply -- it was like I'd already ingested the drug. The author created her own version of Deletrium (in convenient book form!). I'm still woozy...

LOVED the book; snappy yet sentimental, funny yet sad, and ultimately very, very wonderful. Can't wait to read her next one.

This book and this website are great. Both have a wit all their own!

A warm and witty novel, told in a wise voice just sharp enough to give us pause -- to make us think about this created world a bit before turning back to our own and seeing it in a whole new light. A great read. A book you will want to own so you can read it again.

Yow. What a book. Heartbreaking and hilarious, with haunting examinations of what it means to be human. Now, can I reserve space for myself and my significant other at Sunny Shadows?

I was fortunate enough to get my hands on an advance review copy of SPILLING CLARENCE and immediately ordered my own hardcopy edition. This novel is no sappy sentimental journey down memory lane, but an insightful, funny and heartbreaking story of three generations caught by their own pasts.
