Book Review: Great Idea, Clumsy Execution
Summary: 3 Stars
This story has all the elements of a great, epic tale. Unfortunately, it reads like a quick outline of this epic story. The characters are rushed through life and we barely get a chance to really care about any of them. Even Tessa's four years with Mary, something that defines the rest of her life, are a blur. The ending is about 1/4 of the length and depth that it should rightfully be. I can't help but feel like this story would have been better handled by a more seasoned writer. There were too many holes and rushed stories that I would have liked to see fleshed out.
