All the Sundays Yet to Come

Kathryn Bertine

Review

Treacle. Rich girl gets every dream she wants and finds out she has to work! She doesn't like her mother! Poor little rich girl! Didn't 'fit in' in high school, they were just One Of The Crowd while she was Different! Poor Rich Girl!

Didn't finish it - disgusted to the core.

Review

Suffice it to say that I never 'got it'. This book is a big 'un, The pages are somewhere around 1500, though I don't really know this because I quit reading at about 400.

It's big. It's dense. People wander around aimlessly. Stuff happens to them. Stuff happens to other people. Bad things happen to everyone in gruesome detail.

Spoiler: Halfway through the book, the main character dies. Clunk. One of the main characters. Of one of the main threads in the book. Aw, forget it.
