Negative Positive
Title: I couldn't wait to be done with it.
Review: Although "Veronica" is beautifully written, the actual story left much to be desired. I began reading it and kept giving it chance after chance to "pick up," but ended up making myself finish it (it took me a whole month and a half to read, and I usually finish a book within two weeks). Parts of the book were confusing... Gaitskill jumps from flashback to present time to flashback again all in the span of half a page. "Veronica" was at times dark, depressing and unreadable and actually left me longing for some "chick lit!"
