Title: Better than I expected
Product review: Because I get Starz, thanks to my cable provider, I started to watch the mini series and because I had to miss two episodes, I got the book from my library to catch up. Agree with another reviewer, the Oprah edition is a gorgeous book. Almost want to buy it just to display. My mother was visiting while I was reading it and she reminded me that I poo-poohed her when she was reading it a decade or more ago. So, Oprah and Starz exerted influence on a literary snob.Yes, the mini-series was a howler.............and yes, the book was simplistic......still, I picked up the sequel. Maybe because this type of book is not my cup of tea, I'm not that disappointed & actually sorta, kinda enjoyed both. Call it a guilty pleasure.
