Query: Interesting but not her best work

I have read ALL of Alice Hoffman's books and was very excited when this one came out. I have to admit though, I am a little disappointed. I am about half-way through the book and finding it not a compelling read (I keep hoping I'll get hooked)HOWEVER, I would urge any reader - whether you are loving this book, or hating it - read her other work, ESPECIALLY "TURTLE MOON". That was my introduction to Hoffman and really blew me away. Don't give up on Alice, every book can't "hit a home run".
