Title: Needs more work
Product review: I'm still trying to finish this book, desperately hoping it gets better. An avid reader of many fiction and non-fiction genres, I very rarely give up on a book entirely. However, I am 100+ pages into this one and still have no feeling for any of the characters.The cumbersome cast of extended family members breeze in and out of the text, neither adding to the storyline nor developing their characters. While the main character's internal thoughts and reflections read fairly well, conversations between characters feel aimless and meandering. This may be attributable to the author's inexperience.I am a big fan of this and similar genres. I want to like this book, but it has not impressed me yet.
