I love Philippa Gregory, but I thought this book was spectacularly average, given her talent. Don't get me wrong, the story drew me in, and I liked that the mother-in-law wasn't overtly evil, just meddling enough that you felt sorry for Ruth, and just normal enough that you could put yourself in her shoes also. The husband needed to be smacked! In any case, a good, quick, likeable read.
