Title: Just awful
Review: I thought Midwives was great. I even enjoyed The Law of Similars. But this was the most ineptly written book I've read in years. The characters are so incredibly one-dimensional that you can't remember a single point of their lives.The plot, though, is the bigger problem. What could have been a fascinating story about a subject most people have never encountered is instead turned into a series of awkward speeches. It reads more like an educational treatise on tolerance than a novel. A huge waste of time -- not even enjoyable as mindless reading.
