Review: Predictable and emotionally shallow

This story has very good reviews, so it's possible that other readers would like it very much.  I found it predictable and trite.There just wasn't enough presented to make these women seem like real characters and no real reason that either one of them was like Betty or Veronica.  I felt like the author used feeling she knew her readers would have about breast cancer and the fact that people are familiar with these "Archie" characters in an attempt to lend her story an emotional resonance she couldn't create otherwise.Edit:  Wow, apparently bad things happen if you dare to critique this author's work.  Future reviewers take note -- you will get an immediate flood of downvotes.  Something is rotten in the state of Denmark . . .
