The Daisy Children by
Sofia Grant
I’m disappointed in this one. I was imagining a treatment of
the tragic explosion in a Texas school that killed most of the children in the
town of New London 1937. Unfortunately this tale was only superficially about that
and much more about a dysfunctional family and the unfortunate choices they
made. The “love” story is barely there,
the characters are stock, the story could take in Anytown, USA.
The one redeeming feature is the twist that is revealed in
the last few chapters. Is it worth reading the other 300 pages? I don’t think so.
