review 1: There was nothing that really stood out about this novel except its interesting look into the community of war correspondents. I always wondered what drives someone to do that. I also identified with Flash's frustration--it would be hard to struggle with depression with a war correspondent for a husband. I can see why individual internal struggles seem like a luxury to someone who watches entire families devastated by war, though they are certainly not.
review 2: This book caught my attention on Firstreads and I was lucky enough to win it, but actually found it disappointing. I kept waiting for the plot to develop, only to get to the end frustrated that I had spent the time looking for something big to happen that never did. In my opinion this book was abou... moret depression and misplaced love, not war and romance and photography. I found the environments exciting and loved to learn about the exotic places Flash went. I hated the nicknames...Flash and Wonderboy. less
