Query: Polished Prose, Soap-Opera Story

The author evokes some vivid imagery, and the book moves along smoothly enough. But the plot is straight out of the sappiest soap opera or Bollywood film, and the feminist message is crudely formulated. Every man in the book is a liar, a fool, or a coward - and most are all three. The two main women make every serious life decision as if they were 13 year old girls in the throes of their own hormone-driven emotions. My sympathy for their often horrible situations wears somewhat thin by the end of the book.Having said that, the author can turn a phrase, and she shines when writing the fairy tales that the main characters tell each other.
