Negative Positive
Title: Interesting story set up unwinds like a paperback romance.
Review: I was very dissapointed in this book, especially after reading Siddons first few chapters, which expertly depicted a middle aged woman scorned. The portrayal of the "Eel woman" is one dimensional and unrealistic. The husband is a pathetic wimp. Molly's life is so boring when she gets to Martha's Vineyard, that I hardly recognized the MV that I know. I kept waiting for something interesting to happen after the first 60 pages, and I am still waiting. Typical of the thought put into this book, Siddons describes her mother as having been both 19 and 22 when she gave birth to Molly; both pregnant when she married and not, and all within 20 pages.
