Title: I like Susan, but . . .
Product review: Susan asks Spenser to help out her ex-husband. During this course of this, we learn about her childhood, which she pries out of herself bit by angst-ridden bit. From the way she gets worked up, you would think her early life was like Frank McCourt's, but it wasn't. It was a yawn. The plot? I don't read these novels for the plot. I read them to spend time with three old friends who are way cool, live in the city I know best, say things I wish I'd thought of, get into situations I couldn't handle, drink better booze than I can afford, and wear white hats (as well as other stylish garments).
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
