hummeline 's review for:

Maine by J. Courtney Sullivan
2.0

I struggled with this book. I've loved J. Courtney Sullivan's work, but this one ultimately fell flat. What she hit on the NOSE -- almost uncomfortably so, if one has been in those situations before -- is family conflict, and the barbs that we throw at each other, the long silences, the pain inflicted.

The plot, however, left me underwhelmed.
