review 1: I'm sorry to say that having read this book, which I was very much looking forward to, I am disappointed. I found it confusing and frustrating and kept thinking I had missed something. There were too many threads and the author says herself that the main character could no longer tell if her thoughts were true or lies. However, things do come together in the last part of the book and to that end I commend the author, but by then I was already disconcerted by it.
review 2: Thank goodness I am finished with this book! What a boring, awful chore. I kept reading, hoping it would get better but it never did. The whole book is basically about nothing...it is just a combination of Cora talking about how feelings feel and deciding whether or not to tell Sylvia her pa... morest. The actual plot of this book probably could have been written as a short story. According to what the author wants us to think, Cora is supposed to be soooooo intriguing and sophisticated, but I didn't find anything intriguing about her. She was also a pretty big biatch to someone who was supposed to be one of her oldest and best friends, who Cora thought was too intrusive but was only trying to do what Cora asked her to come and do. I didn't actually like any of the characters, and when Cora's past was finally revealed, I didn't think any of it was interesting or surprising enough to have justified reading hundreds of pages of bologna. I can't figure out why so many people liked this book! less
