Title: promising start, lame book
Product review: I was looking forward to reading this book. It sounded like it would be an enjoyable read. A nymphomaniac attacking a hospital patient, a black cat, a witch. The best part about this book was the blurb on the back cover. The rest was pretty boring.The story started out with a lot of promise, it contained humour, mystery, suspense, all the elements needed for a great novel ride. This soon fizzled out and I had to push the book to the finish line. I am not certain what happened, Ms Proulx had all the elements and got off to such a great start, but she seemed to not know where to take it. The characters weren't thatinteresting and the ending was too predictable.If I had it to do over again, I would not waste any time on this book, there are too many good ones out there. This is the first book from this author I have read, I hope all her books are not like this.
