Query: sink this raft

Unlike most of the reviewers, I did not read this book for an English class. I'm a well-read adult who anticipated a powerful story (because of glowing reviews). I enjoyed the book up until Part III, when I thought Ida was going to tie everything together. She did no such thing. Her "voice" bore no resemblance to the character we met in parts I and II. Her story was a soap opera and completely unbelievable. This book was a complete waste of time.
