Title: So Disappointed!
Review: I have never felt compelled to write an Amazon review, but this book pushed me into it. Our book club read Mermaid's Chair because we liked Secret Life of Bees: that story was original and creative, the characters were developed and interesting; and the prose was almost lyrical in places. I am thoroughly disappointed in Mermaid's Chair: the story is boring and just plain ridiculous; the characters are shallow and silly; and the prose is hackneyed. The end was so predictable that I had figured out most of it by p. 115. I have already given my copy away.
