This was hard to follow, the author has a very nice writing style - hence the two stars - , the topic is very interesting and appeals to emotions, BUT her technique was very flawed. I stopped reading it because all of the jumping between characters, time, and location was too much. I couldn't enjoy it. I only read third of the novel. I really wanted to love it. It didn't have any dynamic that would urge me to want to read and see what happens. ( )
