I am a grandfather of five and father of two so I have had lots of time to read good novels. I’ve lived a long life, in short. I was tremendously excited to read this book as it had been my wife, Margo’s favorite. I will say I was VERY disappointed in this book. The plot was hard to grasp and the characters were complete buffoons. TOTAL NUT JOBS! I went into reading with high expectations....... My total detest for the book left Margo feeling ill. We rushed her to the hospital but alas..we were too late. Margo passed that evening of a broken heart. Never will I read this book again for it caused the death of my beloved, albeit indirectly.
