Review of 'Wildflower Hill' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

i wasn't offended by this book; i started it yesterday and finished today so there must have been enough of a story to keep me going (actually, it was easy to skim through, which was enough attention it derserved) split between the past and present, i had an mild interest in the past's plotline, but only boredom with the present. it just read like a danielle steele romance. and, now that i reflect on it, a lot of VC Andrews too. kind of an outlandish plot, people behaving in ways that simply wouldn't occur in reality, larger than life villians, revenge served up satisfactorily... this book will probably be a commercial success - but i'm not it's target audience
