Three Stages of Amazement by Carol Edgarian

1.0

Technically I did not finish this one. I got about halfway through and just couldn't bring myself to go much further. There was too much going on here - too many subplots (grief over a stillborn baby, the struggles of raising a baby born prematurely, an old family scandal, a start-up company......) and too many characters I couldn't keep track of. The dialogue was *terrible*, especially between Lena and Charlie, who somehow never quite manage to finish their sentences in each other's presence and just speak in fragments and clauses - it made me crazy. There were occasional sentences that wowed me, but they were too buried in the rest of the mess.
