Sadly forgetable July 4, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I am a huge fan of Cathy Kelly, but was left feeling disappointed having just finished Lessons in Heartbreak.
For me it just felt as if the book lacked a bit of substance - the characters were nice enough and the angst they experienced realistic enough, but somehow this wasn't enough.
A fair amount of the book is set looking back to Lily's life during the second world war and although integral to the whole story it doesn't feel seemless as the book goes from past to present
Overall this book was a disappointment from an author who can normally be relied on to produce a page turner. However saying all that the book did make me cry at the end - so it gets an extra star for that!
