Title: A Dreary Read
Review: Just when I thought I'd found a great, funny read, it all turned awful. Wendy French has the ability to characterize family members and capture humor on paper. However, this book is bona fide chick lit, pure and simple, and chick lit is NOT the place to tackle the whole abortion issue. I felt like I was reading some sort of bi-polar adventure where everyone's interactions are funny and escapist, but the real plot of the story is dark, anxious, and offensive. I bought this book for a bridal shower gift -- Thank goodness I read a library copy first. It'd be the last thing I'd want to give an otherwise happy bride.
