Title: Could not finish it
Review: One star is pretty stingy, I know, but I just couldn't get through this book. Books without plots and action can be interesting if the characters are fun, eccentric or weird enough, but there was no one in this novel like that. Billy was not charming. Maybe it would have gotten better but I just couldn't stick it out. I'm starting to get very suspicious of books that have won awards. I've found that a lot of the Oprah Club picks are depressing. Maybe this is the new requisite for literary awards: Boring and depressing. If it's too much fun I guess it can't be that good.
