Interesting story but it's hard to get into a book when you're not really intrigued by or rooting for any of the characters.<br /><br />Bel Canto by Ann Patchett. Much better. Completely implausible story and ending, but it was a fun read that grabbed me quickly and held my attention.<br /><br />Currently reading The Story of Edgar Sawtelle by David Wroblewski. The writer keeps switching styles so it's a little disjointed and I'm not fully into it yet, but I think it has potential. We'll see.Brookenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856065630155928814.post-74054525702654891222011-09-06T20:48:18.494-07:002011-09-06T20:48:18.494-07:00I've never read the mysteries because I want H...I've never read the mysteries because I want Heyer for the lighthearted not dead bodies. :) I have a feeling we're reading them for the same reason.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12471937819219493034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856065630155928814.post-35286206885339225202011-09-06T07:49:12.559-07:002011-09-06T07:49:12.559-07:00re: Spanish Bride.

They were pretty good but they lacked the fluffy lighthearted nature of her romances. (which I think she scorned)Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02495558736099438348noreply@blogger.com
