Not a page turner
I bought this book on a recommendation and proceeded to read it for about three months! The start is promising, and it is poetic in parts. Still, it is such a slow moving plot that I was bored with it chapter after chapter, and only continued reading hoping for some excitement. For me, the end was the last straw. My feeling is Patchett herself got bored and ended it in a careless, trite fashion just to get it over with. I'm still kicking myself for not giving the book away after the third chapter. On the bright side, if you run out of Ambien, this book could be your replacement!
