Query: Characters too flat in a story too contrived.

Ms. Jackson needs more professional editorial support. At root, her ideas are interesting but execution fails to deliver. Especially at setting the stage for events that arise. Reading this story began to feel increasingly like the sequence of events built up to a revelations of the plot, but instead of a plausible reason for these revelations and plot twists, she ended up saying "and then something magical happened (nebulous and undefined), so the story continues thus..."I didn't finish the book for fear of an ending like "and then she awoke from her nightmare..." Or something similarly anticlimactic.
