Book Review of Sunshine

Sunshine
reviewed on


Well, this is a tough one the review. At first I was entranced, then it got slow, then the author would drop something enticing to keep me reading. I decided to persevere even tho the long stream-of-consciousness dragged the story down, because the promise of a meaningful ending was there. Unfortunately, it was a flop. I was very disappointed, feeling that I'd invested trust in the author and story. Whoever compared it to Buffy has not seen the TV show. But I read Sunshine on its own merits, not because of any comparisons. The way it ended was simply inexplicable and left me as frustrated as a baker who labored over cinnamon rolls only to find out the end product was inedible.
