Debra Covell's Reviews > Happiness Falls

I just went back and read the description for this novel. It is definitely not a riveting page-turner. It was a slow moving, tedious read. I felt like the author wasn’t sure what this book should be. Every time the narrator said “but that’s before…” then shared some other plot point that *I think* was supposed to intrigue the reader, I found myself sighing and rolling my eyes. I found the mom, dad, and Mia very unlikeable. Too long and drawn out for sure with a deeply unsatisfying conclusion. I’m surprised at how high the ratings are for this. I should have DNFed it.
