Title: Disappointing...
Review: I've read a lot of Maeve Binchy's novels in the past (Scarlet Feather, Circle of Friends, Light a Penny Candle, Echoes, Firefly Summer, The Glass Lake, Evening Class, Tara Road). Her books are typically the kind of book that you fall into and can't put down. I keep reading one last chapter before bed, until I realize that it is 2 a.m. So I picked up a copy of Nights of Rain And Stars. What a disappointment! The characters are flat, I had little interest in what happened to them, the outcomes were wrapped up too easily for some characters, and the writing was not very good. I had to force myself to keep picking it up and finish it, which took several weeks, because it simply was not that enjoyable or interesting. If you are looking to read some Maeve Binchy, don't start here. Try Evening Class or Tara Road.
