    Hasshama, why do you only give this book a B- rating? What do you not like about the book? You have summarized the major events, now you need to give your opinion of what is going on in the book. DO you like the characters? Do you agree with their decisions or opinions? Can you identify with any of the characters in the novel? The plot sounds interesting. I wonder why the author chose to tell the stories of these three ladies? Will they connect at some point? Or do they have common stories or outcomes? it will be interesting to see what happens.
