Title: Where was her editor?
Review: "She could feel droplets of sweat dampen her school uniform and trickle between her breasts, settling in her belly button."(pg.91) Is this really an image I need to experience??? While there are some moments of charm in this book, the author's writing is often torture:at least one overwrought simile per page,so many attempts to make minor characters interesting that I couldn't really tell whom this story is about, and I kept hearing the soundtrack from Chocolat in the background-did we need the tinkers? The recipe gimmick has been done a million times.These are the kind of beginning writer errors my jr.high creative writing students make. I think all the 5 ratings are way too generous.
