When Two Feathers Fell from the Sky

DNF @50%

I really wanted to love this one. I mean, how eye-catching is that cover? Unfortunately, I ended up finding it slow, boring, and a slog to get through.

Such a disappointing book.

I heard an interview with the author and was hooked in. Margaret Verble discussed her inspiration for this story, which was a small amusement park in her childhood neighborhood that included horse divers like the fictional Two Feathers.

The book, however, isn't as compelling as I hoped. The characters and story meandered to meh after a good start. It also seemed like there were just too many characters and side stories, which really weren't needed when a few of the main characters had rich enough stories/back-stories to fill several books.

Also, I was personally annoyed with umpteen sentences starting with a verb, no matter which character whose point-of view was being presented.
