Enemy Women by Paulette Jiles
1.0
I really wanted to like this book as I live in the Ozarks and am interested in Ozark History, but the writing style was just all over the map. Sentences were just thrown together into paragraphs and many paragraphs didn't seem relevant to the story at all.
In one of the first chapters the author states that the MO Ozarks have been basically cut off from the rest of the nation. But a few paragraphs later she writes that the main character's father is reading a Little Rock newspaper. If they were in such isolation how did the father get a Little Rock newspaper?
Sorry if I sound a little irritated. I think Enemy Women could have been an amazing book if it had a better editor.
