I realy enjoyed this book, sometime in the 80's, I am looking forward to reading it again. The characters were so full and so real, they lived in my mind all throughout the book. I felt as though I lived in the small town with them.

Too many characters, took too long to get into the story, although well written.

    It's one of those books with no real ending, with characters who continuously make poor decisions, though they are carefully crafted. For me, I don't read to feel sad, and this book is just depressing. It's not on my worst read list, but...

    Interesting enough story, but didn't need to be to be 700 some pages long. Many characters and details were unnecessary.

    It was pretty good. I did have a hard time, however, believing that many crazy people could live n one town!

    This was the last straw for me when it came to Oprah's Book Club. At over 1000 pages, it was a depressing tome, where things were bad and never got better. It was a slog to get through and I would never recommend it to anyone, ever.
