Prose: 3 out of 10
Character/Execution: 5 out of 10
Overall: 3.50 out of 10
Assessment:
Plot: This book has the potential to be an interesting family history, but the plotting and prose are often confusing. And this makes it hard for readers to fully engage with the text.
Prose: Readers will find Sofay's voice hard to follow and confusing at times. This issue is exacerbated by grammatical errors.
Originality: While the premise is promising, the execution falters. What could be an original tale is undercut by plotting and prose issues.
Character Development: Although it is sometimes difficult to get a picture of what the characters look like, Morton does make several of them stand out. Character development is the strongest element of the book.
