Honey Book

I didn't think it could possibly get worse after Rose, but I was wrong. All the characters in here are so flat and one-dimensional that it's hard to care for any of them, even the poor nearly-retarded uncle. The family revelation in this book that comes near the end is nothing more than yawn-inspiring. Grandpa Forman did what? Oh, REALLY? Too bad that I'm bored, otherwise I might care. I found each chapter a chore to plod through, honestly. I'm sad that the man who penned the enjoyable Cutler family books wrote this junk.

Honestly, this book was rather cliched and contrived. Back then when this series first came out, I was still excited because I still had hope for Andrew Naiderman. I don't know why he stopped writing the usual mulktigenerational family drama thing anymore, these family sagas (Flowers in the Attic through Melody) were far better than this dredge he writes. Honey was only a tiny bit better than future books like Gemini or Heavenstone Secrets - but that's not saying much.
