Title: Lost me
Product review: Be warned, Lost is a huge blunder by the author. It features a very unlikeable main character, Winnie Rudge. Winnie is a female Scrooge and the book starts out with her doing a remarkably mean thing. Later--much to late--in the book we find out why Winnie is such a mess but by that time you'll no longer care. People don't behave normally in this book. The characters make speeches instead of having converesations and the plot wanders all over the literary map. Is this a take on Christmas Carol? Is it a Jack the Ripper story? Is it a classic ghost story? The author can't seem to make up his mind and so he fails. I didn't like Winnie. I didn't care about her feckless cousin and I just couldn't embrace the story.
