Sharon V. (Chicago, IL)

Little Black Dress
On the surface, this book incorporates all the appropriate elements of a story: family relationships, plot centered around a mysterious object, romance and a dusty old Victorian house.

Unfortunately, the premise is not compelling, the characters flat and the dialogue weak. Alternating chapters told from the perspective of two different characters only added to the difficulty in hearing the author's voice. i would not recommend this one.
