dark mysterious slow-paced

This is a depart from Hannah’s normal repertoire. I didn’t hate it, but I found it slow and somewhat predictable. If this is your first Hannah read, don’t give up!  Could have done without the romance. It was silly and unnecessary.

After finishing this book, I’m left scratching my head. What was the point? Was there a point to be made that I missed? Was there a plot? What did I learn? Are there unforgettable characters? The answers are all no. I don’t think so. So why did I read it? Because it was written by Kirstin Hannah. Is that enough of a reason? No, I don’t think so. I have to admit that I did skip through a few pages, but I don’t think I lost anything important in the storyline. The book is very repetitive, so you don’t miss much by skipping a few pages. Needless to say, the book did not captivate me. I’m very upset that I read it. Don’t waste your time. Unfortunately, I’m done with Kristin Hannah. I loved The Nightingale, but nothing after that.
