The author cannot keep the narrative flowing. It skips around from present to weeks ago to many years ago, to present to a few years ago, to childhood to present; from one incident to another unrelated one. Some of the flashbacks seem to be inserted just so the author could add more ridiculous details to the story.After reading the defensive comment below, I will add - you are right, Jane, I should have mentioned that I did not read the whole set; after wincing through quite a bit of part one and reading the negative review before mine (from someone who did struggle all the way through), I decided that I would rather spend my time on a better book.By the way, Jane, if you "came in to post your review", where is it? The most recent reviews are mine and Hani Suleiman's, both 1 star.
