The Mermaid Chair by Sue Monk Kidd
2.0
Would recommend: Shrug.
I read this book in one sitting on a flight to Las Vegas. Lest that depict rapt attention to it, let it be known that I fell asleep after the first 15 pages, only to wake up an hour later and finish it. I was more intrigued than entertained with this read. The plot is interesting and the setting is compelling, but the main character was lacking for me. She had this crisis because ... she was bored? I didn't really get it. The ending was wholly unsatisfying to me, given the enormous scale of the premise.
