Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I would like to have rated this with a "zero" star. I am obviously missing something based on all the five star ratings, but I have read far-fetched fairy tales that were more believable than this book. I am a native North Carolinian and where this author got some of her ideas is beyond me. I wonder what she was smoking or drinking while writing this. I am disgusted with myself for wasting money on this crazy book. I am forcing myself to finish it because it is the selection for my book club next month. I can't wait to hear the opinions.
