Title: Abhorred it!
Review: I was so excited when my copy of "Deep End" finally came from the library - I'd been on the waiting list for two months due to it's popularity. As a parent of a toddler, the mere thought of my child being abducted is horrifying but that was the only part of the book that made me feel anything but sheer apathy. Beth was an entirely un-likeable character and I agreed with her self-pitying statements about herself being a bad parent and mother. Vincent was lucky to have been raised by someone other than her. We were scheduled to read this book for my book group but, after a few of us "previewed" it, we decided to omit it from the reading list and move ahead to Richard Ford's "Independence Day" and were all glad that we did
