 | "Warning! It's not too late to cancel your order!!!" | 2007-08-10 |
After reading the "blurb" on the back of the book, I was looking forward to tucking-in to a pleasant, light read. Early on, it was obvious that this story was FAR from what I expected. According to what was promised in the synopsis, "funny...witty", "...cheer for Rose Llyod...", "...this triumphant novel will strike a chord...", it sadly turned out to be NONE of the above. I never found any reason to cheer, as it was not that type of story, and I slogged through poor Rose's sad state of affairs. I also grew weary of the many flashbacks and ended up skipping some of these sections all together. If you are expecting what I expected out of this DEPRESSING book, you too, will be disappointed.
