Title: A surprising disappointment
Product review: I didn't expect to be so terribly disappointed with this book, I purchased it even before Oprah chose it for her book club, based simply on what I read on the front inside cover. One would expect this book to be powerful based on the reviews it's receiving, yet I found it incredibly dreary, slow and uninteresting. I felt no empathy whatsoever for the characters, and getting through this book was basically a chore, but I'm stubborn like that. Needless to say, the glowing reviews and the position on the bestseller list puzzle me. . .
