Title: A waste of time
Product review: I picked up this book due to curiosity. The fact that it was on the bestseller's list for several months along with a seemingly interesting plot compelled me to read it. I regret wasting any amount of time on this poor excuse for a novel. The book had the schmaltzy dialogue that one would find in a cheap romance novel. What could have made for interesting drama (ie., the plight of young Grace) was overshadowed by an affair between the two main characters that lacked both credibility and appeal. There are plenty of well-written books out there that accomplish the drama that Evans could only hope to achieve (Isabelle Allende, Toni Morrison, etc.). Give it up Evans!
