    Difficult Read
    This book jumped around so much that it was hard to follow. No character was developed adequately and the book at most was dull.
  • Shelly B. (Staten Island, NY)
    A Short History of Women
    I had high hopes for this novel. The story is the kind of book I love to read. I couldn't get past page 40. The writing style and the history lesson was boring and dry. The characters' internal dialog was confusing. I had a hard time following the different random thoughts of the characters.

    The characters were stilted, underdeveloped, and did not come alive. I didn't care what happened to them.
