Title: Couldn't stand it
Review: This is the first book I have tried to read by Kingsolver, and I couldn't finish it. The first 100 pages (as far as I could get) read like a romance novel, with all the smelling of pheromones and aching pubic bones. I just couldn't stand it. This is a character driven novel, and I did not like any of the characters. For a story about a woman's sense of place (and insects, for that matter), I liked Margaret Drabble'sThe Peppered Motha whole lot better.
