Negative Positive
Title: Severly disappointing!
Review: I started this novel with high hopes because I am an Alice Hoffman fan. I finished feeling disappointed and cheated. What I thought was going to be an inspiring novel about a feeling I have had myself left me feeling empy and unfulfilled. It seems Ms. Hoffman started this story with high hopes herself than didn't quite know how to capture the feelings of the characters and so turned Hollis into an obnoxious, abusive man and turned March into a totally unsympathetic character. Yes, love sometimes makes you blind to a person's true character and makes you turn a deaf ear to those you love most but March's total immersion into a man who could be so cold and cruel really alienated me from her. The ending was a cop out, an easy way to end a novel that made you feel like you had wasted time even reading the book. This book was a total rip-off of "Wuthering Heights" and my opinion is, if you can't improve on a classic, don't bother tryng.
