Query: Disappointing

I have got all of her books but I couldn't read this one. It failed to engage me and I gave it 100 pages. I tried to read it five or six times and finally had to stick it back on the shelf. Her work, like most authors, seems to be unpredictable. A good book will be followed by a mediocre collection of stories. Go figure. I loved the cover.
