Title: Memorable..as the first book I didn't finish
Product review: I so enjoy commonplace stories of quiet people. Picked up this book because the cover art and inside flap held promise--but it was written poorly.The story would go meander, as many good stories do, but then the author would use "Meanwhile back at..." which is not only a jolt out of the story, but also very amateurish.Character development stuck to a parable model, with characters either being good or bad. Bad characters were flawed and lost, while good characters were virtuous and stalwart. This is useful in 500 word parable--but amateurish in a novel.
