Love the story...hated the writing
I'm a teacher.....I read lots of student papers and often have to reread their work to try to decipher what they are trying to say. The entire time I was reading this book I had to do the same thing. I am not a literary snob and I can easily look past an author using the wrong to/too or a couple of typos but....this book was ridiculous. At several points in the book I had to reread entire paragraphs just to figure out what was going on. I seriously don't think the author even read it before it published. If an editor read it then that is VERY sad and they are a disgrace to the profession.
The only reason I suffered through the bad writing and the only reason it received ANY stars is because I really liked the storyline. The author is good...if she can find herself an editor to help out then her books would be great. It's a real shame...I would like to know the story of the other characters but I just can't take a chance on the poor writing.
