I could not wait to get through this book and forget I'd ever picked it up but as it was for my book club I had to get through it. I found the plot non existent, the characters vapid at best, the language too impossibly obtuse and unnecessarily abstract. Perhaps the whole thing would have been more interesting as a treatise on mental illness, or a poem ala "Howl".

I read ALOT of books.

I had to pace myself with this abysmal excuse for a book by reading 4 others in between.

Sad, sorry, depressing and shallow are the words I use to describe my overarching takeaway messages. If she truly appreciated beauty in the depth of characters, it certainly never came through in her prose.
