Negative Positive
Title: the writing style is what ruined this!!
Review: I have to be honest - I really wanted to like this book after reading the reviews, but her use of appositive phrases is extremely overdone and very annoying. Maybe it's just a personal pet peeve since I am an English teacher, but she interrupts almost every sentence with a thought interjected into the middle - ugh....a good technique but not for almost every line! It makes her sentences jilted and slows the flow of the reading...I had to abandon it. I'm sure the plot is solid, but to be considered a sophisticated writer, you need to have more than one trick in your bag concerning style.
