Review: Saying no to an author

is always difficult for me.  I want each one to be wonderful, so I struggle with these reviews.  I read her novel This Dowsn't Happen In The Movies first because it was free and I am always looking for discoveries of authors new to me.  That review was particularly difficult.....could not decide if I liked the writing or not.  Now I'm sure:  not particularly.  It reads like a group of assignments from a writing class, not excellent or even very good, but a good effort....a solid C+. The Elvis story was so frustrating, moving along at what seemed a snail's pace, that I found myself skipping ahead.  As each page flew, I would make note of one new character after another, much like watching someone tossing clutter into a closet before company comes.  That is when I stopped, not wanting to drop Renee's grade to a D!  I cannot recommend her current offerings.
