Title: The writing is sophomoric and the story is treacle.
Product review: I cannot understand how a writer of such little talent can be on any bestseller list. He wrote as if he wished to rush through the story. The characters are wooden, devoid of life; characatures of lovers. The author conveys no sense of place in his description of the Carolina coast. The story is about two self absorbed people who cannot seem to get on with their lives, but the reader is apparently supposed to accept them as deep people with grand philosophies of love. I found the main characters to be two people I would not want to spend an evening with. This book should be banished to the Romantic sections of bookstores, and placed on the bottom racks. Perhaps then people would not waste their money on this treacle.
