Review title: worst writing I've encountered in years
Product review: I read this entire book because it was one of my book club's choices, but I should have stopped after the first few pages. The writing is flat and unimaginative, and the characters' situations are unrealistic and completely random. Lokko seems to rely on dicey topics such as incest and abortion to keep the reader's attention, yet she never really follows through with addressing the significance of these weighty issues - the characters just plow through events that should be life-altering, but don't seem to be affected by them. None of the storylines or themes come to any resolution. Save your money and your time - not even worth checking out from a library.
