Title: I tried to like it, but was incredibly disappointed.
Product review: Like another reader, I was excited to get a book which was so critically acclaimed. However, I kept waiting for a character to draw me in, a scene to excite me, something to happen to keep me interested, and I never got any of it.Perhaps it is an British vs. Yankee thing, but this novel was incredibly boring to me. There were moments of great writing and prose, but not enough to carry the book. Claire was superficial, whiney, and so stupid that I had no cause to like her. Tristan was a spineless pet without any likeable charactoristics. Paul, I wanted to like, but I just didn't find enough depth in his charactor to become attached to him, either. Rachel was just a witch, and to be honest, I'm not really sure why she was even in the book, except to have someone else to torture poor Tristan.Skip it.
