librovert 's review for:
Story of O
by Pauline Réage
DID NOT FINISH
I did not finish this book and it had nothing to do with the subject matter.
I made it through the end of the second part (there are four) by forcing myself to pick it up and read a little bit of it everyday. There was nothing about the book that grabbed my attention. For a book that's told from O's point of view (though it is written in the third person), I felt like I knew surprisingly little about her as a character. I didn't feel for her and, given the situation she was in, I felt I should have.
Maybe there was something I was missing or maybe I got a bad translation, but with some many other books on my list of books I want to read, I had to make the decision to shelve it.
