Life in Full
Russo's empathetic story of life in hard-luck Bath shows that, no matter our station in life, opportunities to show generosity of heart are there every day. Poignant but never sad, Russo's cast of characters try to get out of their own way, but in their failing only prove their humanity.
Louis

Did not care for the plot(s) or characters.
Too unstructured, and I did not care about any of the characters. Written well, but plot(s) not engaging.
