Trash Novel Review #1 - A New Series (Hereafter TNR)

Tess Gerritsen's "The Bone Garden".
Pros:
Excellent portrayal of the poor options for women in the nineteenth century and a fascinating portrayal of the horrendous conditions in hospitals, especially for women giving birth.
Cons:
Not really much of a mystery and not much of a love story.

I am glad I read it - I finished it and left it with a friend, and I do not torture friends.



(The main purpose of this series is to help me avoid buying a trash novel twice, though I doubt I will have a live WiFi connection as I am making such decisions.)
