Insightful, Beautiful, Dramatic
The world without you.

Our book club unanimously disliked this book. We felt the characters were not developed, we felt no empathy for any of them, in fact several of them annoyed us. It was the story of a dysfunctional family and not well written. Though the premise of the book showed promise, it went no where.

When we asked our 10 book club members who liked the book no one responded positively. Though the premise sounded interesting, the book did not deliver.

 
Dramatic, Inspiring, Beautiful
Fast read but just ok

our book club agreed that we liked the book but not strongly. We felt many of the circumstances were unrealistic and we couldn't relate to the lives of the characters before they met.

The Language of Flowers: A Novel by Vanessa Diffenbaugh
 
Book Club Recommended
Insightful, Beautiful, Interesting
Good story and good discussion

The Infatuations by Javier Marias
 
Boring, Unconvincing, Slow
long and wordy

The author obviously doesn't believe in periods. One sentence could run on for 4 pages! Easily could skip 2-3 pages and not lose sight of the plot

The Lowland by Jhumpa Lahiri
 
Book Club Recommended
Interesting, Dramatic, Gloomy
wish i'd known earlier

important parts of the story were explained near the end, would have helped to understand motivations if explained earlier in the story.
