Review title: Nothing like I expected
Product review: With all the hype surrounding this book, and all the awards, I thought I couldn't miss by reading it. This book frustrated me the way it droned on without much of anything happening. Unless of course you count hostages falling in love with fellow hostages unpredictable and interesting. The ending was terrible. It was as though Patchett decided she needed to finish the book on the double, so in the span of a few pages all the bad guys get killed, the adulterer gets killed (how convenient that now he doesn't have to face his wife), and the only ones left are the singer and the translator. I found that particular aspect of the story nauseating. I have read other books by Patchett, so I know she's not a bad writer; she just didn't realize her potential in this novel.
