aishy 's review for:

New York: The Novel by Edward Rutherfurd

3.0

---

3.5 stars. Fascinating history of new york but author only skimmed through it as there is a lot to cover. I prefer to be fully engaged in the historical fictional characters and just as I would become attached to a character, the timeframe would move on to the new generation and the author left a lot of unfinished business in the previous generation, which became really annoying. I felt as if I was stopping and starting a new book every few chapters
