Violence and loneliness tinge the lives of a Texas mother and her two grown children whose family ties suffer under their individual secrets and inabilities to communicate with one another
The storyline was interesting but the characters not so much. I was waiting to see where individually the characters were headed but kept thinking they were delusional; the brother and sister faced each situation like they were dreaming. Thought for awhile maybe it was just active imagination but by the end, was totally confused. Not sure I even liked this book, that’s how it left me, confused.
I only read 50 pages before I quit, so I don't think that counts as a read book. I think the book was dated. In addition, I didn't particularly like any of the characters, and there didn't seem to be much happening, so I just didn't see any reason to go on.
I hate to quit books, but life is short. This one wasn't worth it.
An alright read that got better as it went on, but by no means a page-turner. I wasn't especially attached to any of the characters, and never would have picked it up on my own; I only read it for work.
