Title: Not impressed
Product review: I had heard so many glowing reviews about this book that I was earnestly looking forward to a good read. I was very disappointed. I had to force myself to finish reading it.There was nothing remotely appealing about any of the characters. Three of the so called "ya-ya's" are so thinly defined that it was hard to imagine what drew the group together in the first place. The author spends far too much time describing how they were always in a bed, bath, or hammock together. She should have devoted that time to helping us understand them better. The main "ya-ya" is a poster child for dysfunction.This book reads like a long-winded justification of alcoholism, drug, and child-abuse. There is nothing divine in that.
