The Arsonist by Sue Miller

2.0

You'd think a book called "The Arsonist" would be full of twists and turns and action, but when it comes to this book--you'd be wrong! I thought several times that I should abandon this book, but I have this personal rule about not doing it, so I suffered through the tedium. I'm not going to lie--this book is depressing. Sad story after sad story, and the love story doesn't even redeem it at the end. There were a few beautiful turns of phrase throughout that allowed me to rate this as two stars, but otherwise, I just can't get on board with this book.
