Negative Positive
Title: Formulaic and boring romance
Review: All in all, a very mediocre read. I was disappointed in this book, as I did enjoy reading "The Secret Life of Bees," and this book had also received such high praise. The story line was only mildly interesting, and the book seemed very formulaic and 'blah' to me---writing was not exciting or original at all, in my opinion. The ending was inevitable, and I second what another reviewer stated: there is "zero suspense" or tension in this book. I almost put it down several times, as I was bored with it and exasperated with the main character. I don't think I'd recommend this to anyone, unless you really like formula-based romance novel type books.
