Review title: Hardly Memorable
Product review: While the cover and premise drew me to this book, I have to say that both my mother and I were bored with the story. I found myself skipping whole paragraphs in an effort to finally get to the "good parts." I felt like a grey haze permeated the book and left the reader feeling relieved after reading. It was something to "get through" rather than relish. The story itself is interesting, but I think the writing drained the book of all its "umph." The characters seemed flat and too tormented. If I had to plot this book on a graph, with time on the x-axis and plot/interest level on the y-axis, there would be a straight line across the page. Needless to say, I had high expectations and felt disappointed.
