Title: Not such a good read...
Review: I found the main character to be unlikeable, self-centered and extremely patronizing of those around her. The plot was so complicated I doubt whether even Agatha Christie herself could've solved it and I'm completely amazed at the good reviews this book got. There are a lot of problems with the consistency and flow of the writing - a previous reviewer has already mentioned the overwhelming plethora of characters who are introduced in the first 20 pages or so..by my count, almost 20 characters have been named before the second chapter begins. Another for instanceis, AFTER her husband has been in a rehab center for nearly three months with no problems AT ALL, suddenly the main character starts asking around as to whether there are any known problems at the rehab center. HELLO! Any real problems and/or suspicious behaviour would've shown up before three months have gone by. Just a real disappointing read.
