Title: How desperate was I to read this book?
Review: I tend to only write reviews when I'm mad at myself for finishing a book, and here I go again. Why did I keep on reading? It started out that I'd wanted a good, gripping story, since I'd been doing a lot of heavy reading. I loved My Sister's Keeper, and thought I'd give another of Picoult's books a go. Well, I should have heeded the other 1 star Amazon reviews, which I just reread now. I agree with all of them. The main character Nina was completely unlikable and the story line preposterous: her son is abused, she accuses her husband of the abuse, kicks him out, finds she was sorely mistaken, and he comes back and is still in love with her? That is just the start of the silly plot line. I like a trashy story every once in a while but this was just plain silly.. and pretty predictable as well. I'm done with Jodi Picoult.
Is the review positive or negative?
