The Almost Moon

I read about 10 pages & put it down. I just couldn't get into it. I may pick it up again in the future.

I am diappointed I didn't like this story. The content is very dark, dealing with murder and a difficult family life. I had read another of Alice Sebold's books which was The Lovely Bones and that I enjoyed. This book however left be very confused. The constant flashback and stream of conciseness left me unsure of some plot elements. Overall, I didn't enjoy this book, but I do plan on reading her memoir Lucky and I hope I will like two out of three of her books.

I didn't mind the unlikable and immoral qualities of the main character, I just don't understand why this story exists.
