Tipping The Velvet

I feel like I was supposed to like this more than I did... It was fine. The first half was better than the second (unlike a lot of the reviews, though, I didn't dislike the ending. It was more all the middle stuff that wasn't good and just went on tooooo long). It was all just a bit much for me (it didn't help that I didn't really like Nan and reading her story became tiresome) and didn't seem true to the period (which it doesn't have to all the time, but some verisimilitude would be great...). I'll probably give Waters another chance, but... meh.
