Calanus I don't get it -- I read your LJ review and found nothing there that would justify a 2-star rating

Margaret Heller Goodreads is how I felt personally about the book. I guess it could have been a 2.5 or 3. But for Library Journal I am reviewing it for its content, appropriateness for readers, and general context in comparison to other books. Honestly it's so long ago that I read this that I don't remember why I gave it this particular rating for me personally. I do remember what I said about in LJ, and I think it does what it sets out to do well enough, but there is a lot packed in at the end that felt rushed.
