Review: Saddest thing ever...

I really don't think I can finish this book. Over halfway through it and I can't decide if the heroine and hero should just make a suicide pact and get it over with or keep plodding along in their sad, so very, very sad lives. My word...I haven't seen anything this sad since "Melencholia". And that was the saddest movie I've ever seen. It needed to come with a psychiatric warning label for manic depressives. Much like this book should. I'm losing patience with the sad girl. And what's with the sister? "Oh, I love you, you're my best friend, I need you so badly in my life so I can practice evisceration and destroy you day after day." I'd have slapped her sister AND mother ages ago. I don't believe at this point that anything can make up for the depression I feel reading this. The author could write if she'd get out of the pit of despair and make her characters more than one dimensional. People are normally more complex. They're not all self sacrificing and they're not all evil snots. The way these people are written there is no depth. And there is absolutely no joy, so far. I'll give it ten more pages then I am done. I'll go read a nice hot shifter romance. Those always cheer me up.
