A review by mazza57
One Year of Ugly by Caroline Mackenzie

1.0

I received a copy of this book via net galley in exchange for an Honest review.

i found it a very difficult book to get into, I restarted it at least 3 times and still had no idea what I was reading. The author says she was writing with humour , I can only say that our idea of humour must be very different as there was nothing remotely funny about this book. Illegal immigrants under appalling duress due to financial difficulty. Made to do things they would never contemplated. Attacked with iron bars and constantly under observance this is far from comical. I hated every minute of it and would not have continued had it not been for a challenge. I would gie it 0 stars if i could but as i cannot it will have to be 1. I won't be reading any more by this author and don't understand how such drivel gets published
