Title: I actually liked it!
Product review: I was expecting this book to be really lame, but I just finished it a few hours ago, and I must say that Wally Lamb is actually a very talented writer. Sure, the book is not perfect. There are flaws- overly simplified characters, sentimental plot wrap-ups at the end. But nonetheless, the story itself is captivating. It's nice to know Lamb was successful in creating a character who you could both be angry with, and ultimately care about.. I really got a sense of who Dolores Price was and why she made the choices she did. That in itself, is enough to recommend this book. On a side note, Lamb did manage to capture what it feels like to be a young woman, at least for *some* of us young women..
