Book #11 in 2011

Once Upon a Time, There Was You by Elizabeth Berg.

What a disappointment! This could have, should have, been a great book. The first few chapters gave a great characterization of the parents. Sadly, the "tragedy" that befalls Sadie seemed to be a silly dumbing-down of what the reader was expecting. After that, Sadie's reaction is also ridiculous.

I am a big fan of EB's, so this novel was especially disappointing. I would never recommend this book to anyone.

2 stars.
