These differences are what kept the book from getting a one star from me. The remainder of the book didn't appeal to me. The structure of the writing itself is poor; the pages are littered with comma splices, which are like nails on a chalkboard every time I come across one (and there was at least one per page - or, at least, it felt that way to me).
(If you aren't sure what a comma splice is, it is two complete sentences joined improperly with a comma. For example, this is a comma splice: "The cat was outside, she was sure that it would return inside shortly." NO. This is wrong and so annoying! It can be corrected in a few different ways: by separating the sentences [The cat was outside. She was sure that it would return inside shortly.], or using a semi-colon [The cat was outside; she was sure that it would return inside shortly.], or using a conjunction [The cat was outside, but she was sure that it would return inside shortly.])
And then there were the ridiculous coincidences in the book.
Altogether, it wasn't the story itself that interested me; it was the fact that the author attempted to tackle a tough subject (genetic disorders and whether potential carriers should have children). That was the only thing that saved this from being a one-star book, in my opinion. ( )
