As an enormous fan of MOLOKA'I and HONOLULU, I wanted to love PALISADES PARK...unfortunately it was a very disappointing read.

This was a nostalgia-laced snooze fest for me. I gave it 100 pages, but was bored, bored, bored. The family story was too slow and had too low a pulse to engage me and hold my interest. I didn't really care about them enough to keep forcing myself to turn the pages, so I had to move on.

Nevertheless, I will be one of the first in line for Alan Brennert's next book!
