bexner 's review for:

Marrying the Ketchups by Jennifer Close
2.5
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I really wanted to like this book more than I did.
It explored family dynamics in a tumultuous time, but I didn't connect with any of the characters or have any attachments to the outcome of their situation.
It was as if I was witnessing some other families mundane life where no one really does anything noteworthy. Yawn.
