Negative Positive
Title: waste of time, not even one star
Review: This book is probably the most over-rated book I've ever read in my entire life. The narration is corny and painfully slow. I didn't feel sympathy for ANY of the characters in the story, especially the "protagonist" who has nothing to show for herself except that she is physically beautiful and seems to take on the attitude of blaming the way she is on her circumstances. I didn't see any fortitude of character or any flawed yet empathy-inducing streak in Astrid or Ingrid. The whole time I was reading the book, I was wondering why the author even bothered to write about such ordinary characters and the ordinary things they do. We can get that from real life. I got the sense that the author was trying very hard to forge them into tragically flawed heroines rather unsuccessfully.
Is the review positive or negative?
