Query: Disjointed

Jack and Ruby love each other, although it is an odd match. Although poor, they are noble in their way.What bothered me about this book is the alternating chapters between Jack and Ruby's telling of the story. The chapters also jumped around in time. The disjointed presentation prevented me from identifying with or caring about either one of them. It's a love story and another Southern novel that emphasizes the social and economic importance of owning land. That's it - no real message and nothing new.
