I have a feeling it's one of those love it or hate it books. I hesitated to recommend it for that reason. I felt like it was a drudgery to start, but I kept going because my friend loves that book and rereads it every year. Plus, I was kind of intrigued to see where it was going. I did find the payoff to be worth it, and enjoyed the ending. I can definitely see the other side though! And I do think it's one of those love it or hate it books! (Then again, I'm often in the minority - I disliked Mrs. Harris and most people loved it!)
Yeah, and it could also be that I wasn't in the mood for that book at that time too. Like I said, I thought the idea of this book was great and I wanted to love it, but it just didn't resonate with me when I read it, ya know? I still think it would make a great book club suggestion and if it gets picked, I'll even re-read it to see if I like it better the 2nd time.

I guess something like that happens to me too, lol.
