Review: Annoyed at Pearl
Rating: 2 out of 5
Date: 01 17, 2014
Pearl is supposed to be a 40-year-old whose maturity attracts the attention of a much younger man.  Since I'm approaching 40 myself, I really wanted to like the premise of this book but I found myself increasingly annoyed by this woman who acted more like a 16-year-old.  I take that back - I know plenty of 16-year-olds with more confidence.  We are told that she's a career woman with great goals and ambitions, but we don't see any of that beyond the first scene, and even that was superficial.  I couldn't see what the attraction was between them and the dialogue was odd.  This book ended on a cliffhanger, and while I was curious about what happened next, I wasn't attached enough to the story to pay for the next book, and probably wouldn't read it if it were free.
