Title: Disappointment
Product review: I was so looking forward to reading this book and I can only say, now that I am finished, that I am saddly disappointed. With her book, Like Water for Chocolate, Esquivel proved herself as a wonderfully imaginitive and passionate writer. I'm not sure what happened with this, her latest book. The basic premis was good, but for whatever reason, Esquivel was unable to pull it together. It was sloppy and boring and sappy. The only good thing about this book was the wonderful CD of music that came with it. With all this said, I do look forward to reading her next book. This woman has talent! She needs to rely less on gimmicks and more on her own magical story-telling abilities.
