A review by simplymeh
Green Valley by Louis Greenberg
3.0
An amazing premise
I loved the storyline - it's quite thought provoking. I also appreciated the imagery when writing about Green Valley and the wonderful snippets of language at various interval.
My only problem was the protagonist - I had to take breaks to get over my annoyance of her character and behaviour and finish the book. I'm unsure if the whiny nature of the character was supposed to reflect the result of the Green Valley experience or simply an attempt to write a female character. Either way, it didn't work for me.
