Title: Interesting Idea, Terrible Writing
Review: I picked this book up for a book club, and we had selected it based on the fact that it was set in our state. Not one of us enjoyed it and half the group couldn't even finish it.The idea for the novel is intriguing, but the author executed it horribly. The characters are flat and difficult to distinguish from one another, and errors in the writing were inexcusable. At one point she wrote something like, "she lived alone with four other women." How exactly does that work? Didn't she have an editor? Without better characterization you couldn't appreciate the women's' quest and the prose was so bad it was like listening to fingernails down a chalk board.Pass this one up--it's not worth the time or money.
