I immediately started reading on the day of release and am probably only 1/8 of the way through. I'm so frustrated by the slow plot and the characters - and am SO very disappointed! <br />In the last couple of books, Auel began to take 6 or 7 pages to describe a leaf, seriously! Did you find this too? But somehow this book seems an even bigger extreme of over descriptive narrative.<br />Maybe one day I'll try to get back to it, but after your 1 star review maybe not!Bex n Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00962525533785399620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2867211331020558596.post-76127846047443959682012-02-23T14:59:36.708-08:002012-02-23T14:59:36.708-08:00I couldn't have said it better myself.

That would have helped me like it a little better.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16498328208844029790noreply@blogger.com
