Title: Hard to get into the story
Product review: I too am ambivalent about this book. At times it was interesting but the author added way too many extraneous details which end up making the story a patchwork quilt. I think that the author could have and SHOULD have spent more time developing the characters with whom Jo (the main character) comes in contact with. I'm a Gen X-er so maybe I can't understand middle aged angst, but this adult woman appears to be more self-centered than a teenager. I will say that Miller does a good job at creating a character that one can neither hate nor love -- but the character is also not one who can consistently hold the reader's interest. Be prepared to read a good chapter, then a random chapter, then a good chapter, then a random chapter...
