Book Reviews of The Ladies of Missalonghi
Book Review: A Big Disappointment
Summary: 2 Stars
I read this book after reading the Thorn Birds, hoping that another book by the same author would be as enjoyable. I was thoroughly disappointed though. It had none of the magic that the Thorn Birds had, it was just another romantic story with a sappy happy ending. It wasn't even extremely enjoyable, it didn't grab you or fascinate you or pull you along with it. I couldn't believe the author of such a great book as The Thorn Birds could write such an uninteresting story. I only kept reading it because I hoped it would get better. It didn't. To make matters worse, it wasn't even realistic. It included a "ghost", which is an easy way to avoid reality and patch things up perfectly in a book. I would not recommend this book to anyone who enjoyed The Thorn Birds.
