Review title: my last by this author
Product review: I loved the first couple of novels by Higgins Clark, but her style has grown stale and shallow. I found myself laughing out loud in disbelief with this one. The characters are sketchy and cardboard. The dialogue is so mundane and artificial I found myself wondering why she bothered with it. Clark's strengths are in her plot lines and her pacing. But with boring dialogue and shallow characterization, I just don't find myself caring about the characters by the end of the story. This will be the last one I bother reading.
