Title: Painful
Product review: I had such hopes for this book based on all the wonderful reviews. I am giving it two stars only because the cover design is so pretty. The author creates a main character (deceased) who is purely unlikeable for the first half of the book. She describes repeatedly how unlikeable she was from the perspective of each person of the small Sicilian town. Talk about beating a dead horse. Simply torturous reading. The family that the dead person worked for is also mostly unlikeable. More torturous reading. The second half of the book perks up a bit with a few intersting plot turns and creative plot line but still, I could NOT wait to finish this book so the pain would be over.I have to be honest, the book even squashed my desire to visit Sicily.
