Negative Positive
Title: Charming Billy is the best sleeping pill around.
Review: It's rare that I read a book that I didn't grow to appreciate in some way by the time I finish. The only thing I appreciated about this was finally closing it. This novel doesn't "flow", it's difficult to follow from the start. The characters aren't developed well, I found myself not really caring about them. I wish I had listened to the bookseller when she struggled to find something positive on this one.I'd suggest Mercy Road, Dalia Pagani or Amy & Isabelle, Elizabeth Strout, both strong new writers, as more enjoyable.
