Title: Dull Book by a Good Writer
Product review: This was a slog, which I avoided by skimming after the first hundred pages. Too bad, because the writing is sound, and the characters almost came to life. Why do so many books have to be about dead kids, missing kids, abused kids? Obviously it's a powerful device to get most readers hooked, but I'm wearing out on the formula. Something fresh please.
