Title: Does very little for me
Product review: I never felt like I got anywhere with this book. Yes, I saw how the women's lives merged, but that does not a story make. I think that is my problem. I expect a story. Books like this one and Catcher in the Rye are not focused on the story as much as the feelings and emotions of the characters. They try to give the reader a sense of what it is like to be depressed or to hold back rage and strong emotional feelings. I respect that but have not gained from it. I don't read books to be pulled down by depression and angry emotions. I read to be entertained, and that requires a story.
