Call it what it is

Revisado: 03-18-25

This is a trashy love store. If you like that kind of book, you will enjoy this one. It was categorized as historical fiction. It is not that. Very little is about one of the first female doctors' lives. It is all about her passionate but unconsummated love with a man who is not her husband. ( everything but sex )

All the descriptions of body functions. Poop, pee and throwing up are everywhere.

The story could have been fun but it got too stupid. I didn’t like the reader either.

Fascinating woman

Revisado: 10-07-24

Why hasn't everyone all already heard of Margret Fuller? She should have been in all the textbooks. However, Alison Pataki isn't a good writer, in my opinion. She makes everything too sweet. The conversations are unbelievable. No one has ever talked like her characters. The narrator isn't to my liking, either. I am very glad that through this book, I now know about Margret Fuller and other historic events she was part of.

Very Christian and Overly sweet

Revisado: 08-13-24

This book should be under the religion category. The story is sweet and everyone is well meaning. The moral is wealth is bad and with god you can live on love alone. Parts of the plot are interesting. I didn't like all the preaching.

Not much plot

Revisado: 07-15-24

I lived through the Vietnam Years. I've heard all the heart-wrenching stories of the men and women who fought. I've heard about the horrible lives of the Vietnam people. I do not wish to diminish these powerful and difficult times, but this story has a minuscule plot. Most of the book describes the day-to-day lives of people serving and living in Vietnam. Maybe if I were a lot younger, this book would be informative.
I usually love Hannah's books, and I have read or listened to many. However, this one didn't do it for me.

Interesting story, poorly written

Revisado: 03-13-24

The way the main character describes her husband and child is nauseating. She never uses her husband's name. She calls him my beloved or my dear husband. Please! After a year of tumultuous marriage, she has no money, and she and her husband both have horrible health issues. Her husband is supporting Vincent Van Gough through his mental problems. She has a new baby, whom she describes as always perfect, complete love. She is always in ecstasy with this perfect child. Pretty hard to swallow. The whole book is written like this.

Tacky, Sickly sweet, Wordy

Revisado: 10-28-23

If you are extremely conservative love a heavy southern draw and want a sickly sweet love stories this book is for you. One of the main characters is 74 and sounds like she 94. Everyone is so very nice to each other. I found it nauseating.

Kind of Hokey

Revisado: 09-12-23

Not sure how this book got o many great reviews. It's pleasant. I'm going to finish but I would never recommend this book. Maybe a 16 year old would find it cute.

Very, Very Slow

Revisado: 06-29-23

There is very little plot and it took 107 chapters to tell. I read The Incredible Winston Brown and loved it so I got this. Bad decision.

Didn't like any character

Revisado: 04-25-23

The women all made stupid unrealistic decisions. Example, early in the book one girl, who is in big debt, no home, boyfriend of 1 month, no job, gets pregnant and within minutes embraces it. I'm not buying it! The other woman, a married woman with 3 kids, is shocked when he parents consider selling there large home. Both women complain constantly. Really bad book!
