Title: That this book was published gives hope to us all
Product review: I won't repeat the comments already stated, though I'm not sure why some readers bothered mentioning the author's hatred of all things Republican -- a minor point at such a time -- but I will say that it was somewhere in mid-book that I realized how utterly bad this novel was. In every crisis the characters sailed smoothly through and at times benefited heavily. Who would have thought chemotherapy could improve your looks? The author didn't even have the guts to kill off one the characters. But by then we knew she had no backbone, relying as she did on the old trite metaphors and clichés of the ages with no irony to cut the sappiness. But I said I would not repeat what others have written. I'll just say this: having written trite myself, I can smell it when I read it. This book makes me rethink all those stories I've squirreled away out of embarrassment. Perhaps I should put them all together and publish them for book clubs across America.Yuck.
