Title: B-O-R-I-N-G!!
Review: I love good fiction, and I especially love good fiction about older women carving out a good life for themselves. Unfortunately, this book is neither! Admittedly, this is the first Margaret Drabble book I have ever read, but, if this one is any indication of her writing, I will not be back for more!I found this book incredibly dry, boring, and s-l-o-w!! I forced myself to finish it (after all, I paid full price and for a hardback, something I rarely do now with such good resources for good used copies) hoping with every page that it would improve. It never did. When I diligently labored through it and finally turned that last page I felt as if I had been released from a very stale ordeal. Quite different than when I so dread that upcoming last page and want more.Unless you are a really devoted Drabble fan, I'd skip this one!
