Overall I found this book to be rather frustrating. It had a main story line of course and a few secondary story lines that it was trying to pull in but I feel like I was left wanting more resolution on two of the three.
The main character was someone who at first I thought
…more would be very interesting and entertaining but by the end of the book I felt that she was petty and self-important. She alone knew what was right for everyone and everyone needed to follow her rules, obey her wishes and play her game even though most of them had no idea they were part of her game at all. And if you didn't play along the consequences range from petty and juvenile to extreme. Only once did her behavior make her feel bad and it was about a plant not a person. The complete and total invasion of privacy of her clients and her thinking she was completely justified in doing that was disturbing and I'm someone who has my office cleaned twice a week. Maybe it's just because that hit me on a different level but I couldn't imagine the person I know coming into my office and rifling through all my drawers and reading my private emails as though they were entitled to that part of my life.
The secondary story lines weren't very interesting other than her potential romance and it was a very difficult book for me because other than m there was not one single likable character in the entire book. (less)
