Title: A disappointing second novel
Review: The Secret Life of Bees was such a good book that I was looking forward to reading Sue Monk Kidd's new novel, but this book was so bad that I wondered whether it was a previous effort that she'd pulled out of a drawer and submitted to capitalize on her earlier success. I read about 50 pages of it, then skimmed through to the end to make sure that all the hackneyed things I was sure would happen did. Not one character or one thing that happened in this book was true. Save your money!
