I was excited to read this story, but when I reached the end of the book, I felt let down. The themes were obvious and over simplified. The characters were predictable, as was the ending. The writing was simple, and with such an intriguing subject, I expected so much more. Despite the shortcomings, there were parts that brought a smile to my face, and almost brought a tear to my eye, but that was mostly due to the reflection I was doing on my own life compared to some of the women in the story. Is it the worst or most disappointing book I've ever read? No, it's not, but it definitely left me wanting for more.
