2019 January The Oligarch's wife - Blundy, Anna

                       The Oligarch’s Wife  - Anna Blundy   

A book should draw you in. This one repulsed me. I jumped to the middle to see if it was any better, and didn't think it was.  Gave up.   PM - mark - Hard to give it a 1. 

OL comments: Was rather bored by that at the beginning, but it livened up in the
denouement. An easy read give it 6.

That was my thoughts. Others were a bit more ambivalent about it. One said that yesterday she had decided not to read any more, but did finish it and quite enjoyed it at the end. Another said that she didn't like the end.  There was a reasonable amount of discussion, mostly using the word 'contrived', such as how he got his wealth was contrived. 

Marks 7,7,6,7 and me a 0.
