Review title: Disappointing
Product review: After seeing Joy Fielding books on store shelves for a long time, I finally bought one, but if Mad River Road is typical of her stories, I won't be buying any more.The one thing she has going is the suspense. Yes, the story is plenty suspenseful, enough foreboding of future events to keep the pages turning. But the problem is, I don't LIKE any of the characters. The women make lifelong bad decisions and then we're supposed to think of them as victims? We're supposed to worry for them? Jamie, in particular, verges on criminally stupid. Emma is irresponsible, Lily is better but none of them provoke my concern, none really make me cheer them on. I truly do not understand why this is a bestseller. I'm guessing it's riding on the coattails of some of Joy Fielding's earlier books. Which I probably won't read.
