Title: 1 Star is 1 too many!
Review: I read this book because Oprah Winfrey recommended it in her book club. After 2 days of trudging through it, I was hellbent on finishing it, just for principle! Secretly I was hoping it would get better...but it never did. The most interesting and (I think) valuable aspect of the book was how it described the members of the small black community's prejudices against others of their town, and how the color of their skin determined their worth in the community. However, I never did figure out how the convent fit into the picture. The words were descriptive and eloquent, but the story was lost on me.
Is the review positive or negative?
