Title: Disappointing in form and substance.
Product review: Contrived and shallow, with not one experience, emotion or pang left to the reader's imagination and intuition. I was simply bored by the tale of the Ya-Yas, and in particular by their totally unsurprising effect on the Siddalee character/caricature. I felt as though I'd read every vignette before, and probably told much better, elsewhere. Wells left no emotion unturned and un-flayed, and that actually made it an extremely tedious read for me.
