Francine H. (frannieb) reviewed on 9/6/2011 + 5 more book reviews

I began reading this book with relish as it was recommended by three women in my office who passed it around until it was my turn. They all LOVED it. I found it to be plodding, heavy, dismal and depressing. I agree with other reviewers who didn't like it for the same reason. I couldn't care less what happened to these people, I especially disliked the mother, and actually gave up reading once the father died and the mother was taking up with the uncle. Forget it... unless you need a dull read to get you to sleep.
