Review: Bland and boring. It just never came alive for me.
Rating: 3 out of 5

I'm not sure why all reviewers so far have given this book five stars. The story was moderately well written even with more than 15 editing fails, but just never caught my interest. The descriptions of the scenery and life styles found in the two areas of Australia were well researched and written, but I found that I just didn't care. I like a strong female character, and this one filled that role admirably. However, the author's narrative style just left me needing more. Everything seemed so bland. Is it just me? At 87 percent finished with the book, I found myself still waiting for something important or interesting to happen. I'm really sorry I wasted my time finishing it.
