hoserlauren 's review for:

Black and Blue by Anna Quindlen
3.0

Given all the positive reviews of this book, I wonder if it packed a different punch when it was written. Was domestic abuse not a frequently written subject 20 years ago? Don't get me wrong, this book was ok. It held my attention and I was concerned for "Beth" and Robert. I was waiting for the other shoe to drop. But it wasn't a great book. It just read like an average Oprah novel, to be honest.
