3.0 out of 5 stars not my favorite, February 8, 2008

J. Meyer (Richmond VA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: On Beauty (Hardcover)

The author creates believable characters and explores the relationships between family members. However, although believable and three-dimensional, the plot and characters are not that interesting, and I wouldn't really recommend it.
