Bridesmen of Madison County by Mark Thornton
My rating: 0 of 5 stars
DNF
I tried. I really tried, but I just couldn't read this one. I made it to page 23 before I gave up.
It was muddled. There were too many characters introduced in a short amount of time. I was lost. I kept feeling like I was missing back stories that would have made it all more clear.
I should have known this wouldn't be the book for me when one of the characters made a comment about someone acting like a "rottweiler with downs syndrome." Really? That is just inexcusable.
I felt so lost in this book that I thought maybe it was a sequel, so I tried to search for other books by the author Mark Thornton. I didn't find anything else by him, but I found this entry on Manic Readers listing B.K. Wright as the author. Maybe that was just a mistake on the website, but I do wonder if they are the same person. I've read a book by Wright, and it was not to my liking either.
