Title: A get-real book
Review: Isn't it always about expectations? Ours, the author's? Maybe it's both. Bottom lining it,I have to say I was completely disappointed in this one. It took me a while, years ago,to adjust to Stephen King's supernatural thrillers. But once I realigned my thinking, I beganto enjoy many of his books. Now with White I'm not so willing to accept implausible plots and characters. This one is loaded with situations that defy imagination, simply put. It's not that I demand justice of some sort for those who have been horribly abused, but to let theperps get off so easily after the most horrific misdeeds leaves me cold. And not in a good way.Fiction is fiction, I get that. But there's just got to be a portion of believability andsome fragment of redemption in human beings for me to feel entertained in any traditional way.This book fails, in my view.
