Maybe overdramatic, might have been a better description. The novel certainly did have a lot of layers.

The subject isn't pretty and easy to read but I'm sure it makes a good story. I'm not sure if I'd read this but it does sounds like a book not to be missed. <br /><br />And that's a lovely review, Wendy!
