Review: Detailed Outline, but NOT a book
Rating: 1 out of 5

This read more like a good detailed outline than a book. Sample the first two chapters. You'll immediately see what I'm saying. The book has potential. The topic alone screams drama, but the material needs fleshing out. There were so many moments where the author skimmed over an emotional beat... giving it a few sentences of her time when it deserved at least a couple of paragraphs if not pages of the characters thought process. There were too many "passages of time." That literary trick should only be used to enhance the drama, not skip over it.This book was choppy and could use another 60 pages of fleshing out. It definitely has potential, but it most definitely isn't a finished product.
