[Daghain]

Another 4 for me. I like this book quite a bit.

[mae]

Again, haven't read it yet. Saw the film version a long time ago and don't remember much other than the general synopsis. Should be a fun book, whenever I get to it.

4

single-focus narrative isn't Sai King's real forte

[alinda]

So many 4's , which I too must give this book.
I do like it, but not enough for a 5.

[Aaron]

I thought it was okay, but was very annoyed by the lack of chapter breaks. It makes it very difficult to find stopping points. I give it a 3.

[Letti]

Am I the first one who gave it a 5?
It's one of my forever favourite books on Earth.

[Sam]

I give this one a very strong 4.

[Letti]

I think when I first read it I was about 14 or so and it impressed me so much. The ordinary fight of two ordinary women.. still so fascinating. When I reread it I found it even deeper.
I am waiting for the next 5 eagerly. :)

[Girlystevedave]

I never read this one :(

[The Lady of Shadows]

meh. a 3 for me.

[ManOfWesternesse]

3. Not bad but it never thrilled me either.

[Darkthoughts]

4, really enjoyed it!

I did not find, and doubt that you will either, that this book was a "fun book". It was very sad in many ways. I liked it and gave it a 4, but it had little fun in it.

Well, I misspoke (mistyped?). I meant "fun" as in an engrossing read. It's obviously not a laugh out loud riot.

Absolutely an engrossing read. I felt the story was intentionally written for the reader to "endure" (persevere) just as Dolores did.

[Tiffany]

I gave it a 4. I didn't quite love it but enjoyed the read very much.
