megriff 's review for:

The Orphan House by Ann Bennett
3.0

Interesting concept, but this book didn’t really do it for me. It was hard to pick up and get back into the story. The whole divorce portion seemed thrown in for context, and the ending was predictable. A lot of opportunity for gripping stories but fell flat for me, unfortunately.
