Donna C. (g-ma) reviewed on 5/11/2014 + 3152 more book reviews

First of all--there are 97 chapters and 788 pages!

I didn't get very far into this because

1. way way too long
2. boring from the beginning
3. pages and pages of just describing everything under the sun then the same thing describing everything under the earth--which makes it very very boring

So you say 'how can you review it?'--I'm not really reviewing the story but reviewing the facts of why I wouldn't reccommend this to anyone----Iles is just wasting a lot of time and paper to try to get you started on a long long journey through 3 books! that are just full of nothing but descriptions and how much research was done on the true facts of the way the South was in the 60's or is it just his own theories?

I want a short story of about 350 pages that has a story that flows along with ease and not have all this mish mash of pages of nothing! What I did read before I gave up was just so boring it was hard to get through each page.
