Review by Chrissi (010602) Rating (6/10) Review
by Chrissi I think that the problem that I have with these stories is that they take a bright young woman in a privileged society, and give her ambition not to be a clone of her mother, throw in a few obstacles to make her path difficult, along with a totally unsuitable husband, and a love who is a danger to her perceived position in society, then they drag it all out for ages. The
only difference with this book to the others that I read was that
here, we see the families growing up with the secret, and through
them we find the truth. The tortured lady, though, is still a
major part of the story, even though she passes away quite early
in the book. That is the only twist that I had not seen, but it
does make sense, in that it creates a villain to blame for all
that went wrong with the life of that poor young woman. |
