Absolutely terrible. I had to go back to the front page to see when this was produced as I couldn't believe something so misogynistic was written in any kind of recent time. It's 20 years old and I don't believe it would have been well received 20 years ago. I also couldn't believe a woman could pen such meaningless female characters. I stopped reading 200 pages in. The female characters are not even characters, just side creations, no substance or depth. The other characters overall have no nuance and are completely black and white/good or bad. The plot is slow and boring. I borrowed it because one of my all time favourite authors mentored this author, and I expected good things. I was devastating disappointed. I couldn't even finish the book.
