I hope that Mayo takes some of the reviews to heart and improves with her next novel.<br /><br />Zibliee, it did get confusing with all of the characters.<br /><br />Melissa, good decision.Teddy Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16145413222317511542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5944570901299649958.post-10079646001447504042009-09-10T21:05:59.285+01:002009-09-10T21:05:59.285+01:00I've seen lots of reviews saying this one had ...I've seen lots of reviews saying this one had promise, but didn't quite live up to it.

Thanks for the honest thoughts on this book.Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05857638467064749190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5944570901299649958.post-73839181618151661662009-09-03T10:50:25.891+01:002009-09-03T10:50:25.891+01:00I felt similarly.

I definitely agree that it would have been better as non-fiction. At least then I would have expected it to be slow.Meghanhttp://chikune.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5944570901299649958.post-78560712566207316112009-09-03T01:58:47.258+01:002009-09-03T01:58:47.258+01:00I couldn't make it past the first chapter.

I'm usually on the outside looking in though.Misfithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05791628901417307647noreply@blogger.com
