Title: Glad I read "Divine Secrets" First
Review: I expected "Little Altars" to be another laugh-out-loud story with some touching,tender moments like "Divine Secrets".. But there was nothing to laugh at with this story, which centers around child abuse and alcoholism. Also, I wasn't a fan of the format of the book, in which each chapter was told from the point of view of a different character ....It read more like character sketches than a story. There was too much disfunction in "Little Altars" - and I almost didn't finish it.
Is the review positive or negative?
