Like Anthony Beevor, the style is both detailed and personal. Totally gripping.

(Language: English)
Not as gripping as the Poisonwood Bible - more predictable. Still as insightful into what makes people tick or not tick and with a view of American culture which sits perfectly with the personal.

Half a point for the total fun of reading around the table after dinner and trying to do the voices! Bring out the bitches.

(Language: English)
This is a dark dark fairytale of a book. The characters are unpredictable and wildly interesting. You can re read it.

(Language: English)
Some people say its slow. I think the pace reflects the setting of the book and creates an atmospheric read.

(Language: English)
I thought this was a cleverly written plot. It was the kind of love story I like. Lots of integrity, and human imperfection, and intense feeling. No hearts and flowers. Complicated dedicated love.

(Language: English)
A brilliant read. Detailed but not dry. Perceptive on lots of levels.

Each of the daughters has a distinctly individual voice. Very perceptive and heart-rending book.
